We can see what the item is but the title and description .... seller been eating dodgy funghi ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/her/164086350104?hash=item26344f0118:g:jh0AAOSwslJcYB~4 Same ad, but with a funkier title ... same beautiful description though, and probably munched on the same dodgy funghi https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ier/164086350183?hash=item26344f0167:g:jh0AAOSwslJcYB~4

Her clunky dancing

Likewise. Saw Crimson , the Belew / Fripp / Bruford / Levin lineup, at Friars, Ayelsbury. Fab gig

Repeat, but worth watching again, and again. Weymouth is a star

Also gone

A treat for AH fans and Francis Moze

I saw Holdsworth in a tiny jazz club in Oxford many moons ago. The venue ( Old Fire Station ) downstairs houses about 30 people. Excellent gig though, if you like AH. Just a DB and drums + AH I like his solo stuff. Velvet Darkness is fab and i own it, and for other bands, i have Gong's Gazeuse !! album and Holdsworth excels. Bassist Francis Moze is outstanding

300 watt combo is probably enough, but a little extra headroom is no bad thing, especially in our 7 piece band so the 500 models will be top of the list.

So in the end, its an ABM EVO 1x15 combo ( which series ? Mk 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 etc ? ) And was there an ABM EVO 2x10 Mk 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 etc ?

It has no bearing on the fact that i'm an Essex boy and Ashdown are based in spitting distance from where my long gone mum was born

Definately heading in the Ashdown direction. People like both TE and Ashdown gear, but its swings and roundabouts, really. Except that Ashdown are alive, and kicking well and that is a big point I guess i would be fine with either, but i like Ashdown's reputation for customer focus, which of course is pretty non existant for Trace

I hear ya

4x10 combos dont seem to sell, but the amp would. I did that very thing and sold the amp, but ended up pulling the vintage Celestion drivers, and dumping the empty behemoth cab at the local recycling centre

Keyboardists that are technically advanced are thin on the ground. Very much like looking for hen's lips. Luckily we caught one in our massive shrimping net , and we chain him up after rehearsals and gigs. In all my days and years playing, i've never managed to work with a keyboardist, ever, not even a shyte one

Yes, there is that with the volume thing. We generally only use a vocal PA, and with drummer, gitwrist, and keys + 3 singers, maybe i'd be better off with the - *cough * Trace Watts

Blimey guv, the 500 head was down in power compared to the 200 watt head ?

Thing is 2.5 tons. Amp is 7lbs

Genz Shuttlemax 9.2 - without doubt. 2 separate preamps with very versatile EQ, and plenty of headroom ( 900 watts at 4 ohms ) Dial-able mid scoop at the flick of the footswitch. Dial-able bass boost at the flick of the footswitch. Dial-able top end boost at the flick of the footswitch. Combine both preamps at the flick of the footswitch. Thing only weighs 7lbs

Nice - defintately only going for a combo. Could always keep an eye out for a Celestion to stuff into an Ashdown combo, if i didnt like the speaker ?

Thanks chaps Veering towards Ashdown at the mo I do like the TE sound, but i dont use the pre-shape, just the graphic, and switch from bridge to neck pickup to change my sound for certain songs. Maybe the little bit of extra tone possibilities from an Ashdown is more attractive. The fact that Ashdown are alive and kicking is also something in their favour

I've been debating a while for maybe a TE GP7 / GP12 1x15 combo, or ASHDOWN ABM EVO 1x15 combo, and unsure of which way to go. I rehearse through our rhythm gits own TE GP7 SMC 300 watt combo, love the sound, but what happens if the electronics go a bit turbo ? ASHDOWN are at least still around and have legendary customer service, and are able to deal with problems. But do they stack up to each other in tone versatility and output ( perceived to the human ear ) I'm aware of the weight issues, but for now, not on my list of worries

Looks nicer - configurator plus a bit of crude photoshopping
