  1. Now just up for sale as an UNLOADED shell.

    £75 collected (or will deliver a resonable distance of Bath/ meet part way)

    As leatherette is in, erm, less than OK condition, i'lkl also throw in pretty much enough to recover the thing. This is very much a project cab, and requires a little tlc and drivers. But its BIG fun and loud and low.

    All i want is to recover some of the funds i spent on the birch in the first place.

  2. Here we go again, trying to peddle my wares on here.

    Ashton BV300 head, 300w KT88 head... all valve preamp. Amazing value for the money at less than a quid per valve watt! It is also very close to the Eden E300T (if you believe some of the theorists, its simply a low price rebranding of the Eden!).

    Really clean sounding amp. Complimented by a decent drive pedal (If thats your bag !). Has fender style cut only preamp and manages to retain that old school tone and feel.
    There are the odd scuff and scrape in the tolex, as would be expected from travels in the van, but otherwise, rest of the amp is clean.

    Benefits from individual bias points for each KT88 so buying matched triples or sextets aren't an issue anymore. Currently running EHX KT88s, EHX 12ax7, 2x EHX 12at7 and 1x EHX 12au7 Phase Inverter. The valve must be almost worth the price alone.

    Only selling due to finding an SVT II (non pro) for a song, so this one has to trot down the road i'm afraid.

    Trials of the head are welcome and expected.

    Link to pics of the internals (Cheers Mr Foxen)

    Its the head on the right (Atop the 4x15) in the My Rig pic.

    will try and get more pics sorted soon, in the meantime a google search brings up some good ones anyway.

    Also.. VTypeV4 has done a little review of his BV300. find it here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/176021-ashton-bv300-all-valve-300w-bass-head/"]http://basschat.co.u...300w-bass-head/[/url]

    Cheers all!

  3. To Random Bass Geoff, As Mr Foxen says, i have one here in Bath up for sale... great amp for the money and amazingly clean voiced!

    VType: Definitely an accurate and hoest review on the BV300 there too! Got on with mine, but found a SVT II (non pro) going for a song, so now it has to go to a new home!

    Basically what Mr. Foxen said... I've been messing around with the crossover on mine and there was a whole lot of shaking going on.

    If I had the money I'd be all over this because what's better than having one Firebass head? Having two Firebass heads!
