[quote name='stevie' timestamp='1493060337' post='3285314'] Whoah, that's an 800 watt rms cab. Those DAS drivers are real pro. A single one costs what Nik is asking for a pair in a nice Ashdown cab. http://www.toutlehautparleur.com/das-p12-8ohm.html Bargain! [/quote] Thanks for clarifying that for me Stevie; I thought the drivers were 300 watts each for some reason?? I'll amend the original ad later.. And yes, those DAS 12" drivers do sound fantastic! Nik

[quote name='jhk' timestamp='1493058306' post='3285287'] [b]I know some people prefer wood laminate ............ but I`m pleased to see that you`ve had `coconut Ice` fitted for your flooring ........[/b] [b]good luck with the sale nik![/b] [/quote] That really made me chuckle, Jon! It's the basement floor actually and we paid top dollar for that 'coconut ice' look, I'll have you know! 😁

[b]*** Now SOLD ***[/b] Hi Folks This is an [b]Ashdown ABM 212T[/b] (2X12) cab that's been upgraded with two 400 Watt, 8 ohm, [b]DAS Audio P12[/b] 12" drivers to make for an ever better sounding bass cab that delivers a very clear, very punchy and very deep bass sound that will take a lot of power and give a great sound even at high volumes! I'm looking for [b]SOLD[/b] for this or very near offer. Here's a few photos: [attachment=243882:IMG_20170115_155329.jpg] [attachment=243883:IMG_20170115_155543.jpg] [attachment=243884:IMG_20170115_155522.jpg] [attachment=243885:Das Audo P12-8_2.jpg] [b]Description: [/b]I originally bought the cab without any speakers in it about a year ago on Gumtree, and then purchased the two, high-quality DAS Audio drivers to put into it after doing a bit of research on what drivers to use. My aim with this little project was to not only get a great natural bass sound, but also - knowing how good these drivers are - to get a great bass sound even when using lots of FX with my bass which I sometimes do.. Well, that was the aim I had at the beginning and I can definitely say that to my ears at least, it was achieved, because the cab sounds really good even when using octave pedals, bass synths etc. In fact, I A/B'd this against the SWR Triad that I sold recently and I thought this sounded better than the Triad, something that really surprised me because I've been a fan of the Triad for years (as some of you will now). As well as the two 12" drivers, this cab also has a tweeter with a three-way switch (high/low/off) which adds a little sparkle to the top end of your sound and is great for any slap bass players out there! At the back, the rear panel has connections for one speak-on input and one jack input (please note though; one of the two jack inputs isn't working). Other than that, it's all in good working order though it does shows signs of having been well used and well gigged! [b]Reason for selling: [/b]As good as it sounds, I'm selling it because I find it a bit too heavy at 70 lbs for me to lift these days - ever since I put my back out at the end of last year at work. So now that I've bought a lighter cab, I'd like to sell this on to someone who can make good use of it and also, so that I can recoup some of what I've spent on it… [b]Price:[/b] All in all, I've spent about £200 on this so I'm asking for [b]£165.00[/b] or a very near offer. Potential buyers are very welcome to come and check it out first and to hear it in action whilst being plied with plenty of tea/coffee/biscuits and chat! Equally, I'm happy to ship it if that's required? . Anyway, thanks for looking and if you've any questions, please send me a message and I'll do my best to answer them. Nik

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1492955789' post='3284338'] Is this bass STILL here? If it's here any longer I will feel compelled to buy it. [/quote] Compulsion is a terrible thing normally, but here on Basschat it can lead to a feeling of joy and happiness.. Well, for a few days at least! 😁

Beautiful example of Bernie's​ work! Can't believe this is still here at this price either... GLWTS

Awesome! That looks like a lot of fun to me.. 😁 GLWTS

Good kit this; very good indeed!! I have one very similar and for recording, gigging in difficult sounding rooms or just making your bass sound even more sexy, it's a fine, fine thing. From one of this forum's finest too, so you really can't go wrong.. 😊 GLWTS

I had one of these 10 years ago - surprisingly good tone and very loud! GLWTS

Ah, that makes sense Chris.. There's a lot of high quality gear around on this forum that has passed through Beedster Towers at one time or another. I should know as I've owned, and still own, some of it! This is quite a stunner and as you say, is a lot of bass for the money. Hope you're doing well btw 😊

Great for sale thread; that's exactly how it should be done! Beautiful looking bass too.. 😊 GLWTS

Hi Danny, Any chance of you selling me one pair of these, i.e. one x male and one x female? Thanks Nik

PM sent..

Hi Kev I might be able help as my Mono strap is a little to big for me.. Shall we swap photos? Nik

Cool bass Jack! GLWTS

I'm surprised this is still here at this price...? 🤔 Especially as it's a quality piece of kit for not much money at all by today's standards. Anyway, GLWTS and have a BUMP on me!

Just had a listen to your YouTube clip Mark... bass sounds very warm and phat! Great frontman/vocalist by the way. GLWTS

That's pretty much a hand-built, boutique and unique bass for £600!! GLWTS
