  1. Yep I’m not keen on amp over hang !! I’ve used Zilla guitar cabs but never considered them for bass cabs too
  2. Yep I was tempted to buy the BF410 that was recently up for sale on here but I was too late !
  3. The 212 is 4 ohms and my two ABM210H are 8 ohms each
  4. Sensible as that sounds but we play loud at rehearsals ( typical gig volume ) so both cabs 210 needed
  5. The sound is spot on, good grip and just about perfect gauge Nearest rival would be the 0.88mm green which I have loads too !
  6. Hey folks I own the Ampeg SVT212AV cab and two Ashdown ABM210H cabs Both setups are good I use my CTM100 head with the two ABM cabs and the Ampeg I use at rehearsals as a single cab So what can I change to give me less cabs ( storage reasons ) but more speakers and still sensible carry weight etc ? Must be suitable for my CTM head to sit upon and sound good of course !! Ideas ??
  7. I guess they no longer make them ? Sadly many of the BF cabs are not wide enough for the CTM100/ CTM300
  8. Yep PMT have a lot of damaged or marked stock. I tend not to use them now because of multiple times sub standard goods have arrived
  9. I think some finger players ( like myself ) have a softer warmer tone and definitely deeper compared to the pick. In a crowded guitar band I would imagine the pick would benefit the bass being heard but in my single guitar ( overdriven mostly ) band both work. As a compliment to the drums I think finger style tone has the edge for “fullness” There are finger style players with a tone a lot closer to the pick tone but that’s not me !
  10. PMT have a B stock Ashdown ABM410H cab for £404 !! I was tempted but they are so heavy
  11. Well … last rehearsal I decided to finger play the whole set instead of using a pick. Biggest challenge was The Trooper but I just about nailed it There is definitely something extra playing with fingers… a wallop of punch and depth.I’m now tempted to leave the pick in the case. Choices choices !!
  12. My first Terror V2 came faulty and shutdown, to be fair it had been knocked around in transit ( new ) My second Terror was ok but I didn’t like how dark it sounded so I sent it on its way. I wanted to like it but actually found the LBT a nicer sounding amp with more EQ options. I did like the warmth and drive tone from the Terror and it’s a very loud 500w amp
  13. Did you run your DI out with the button pressed in or out ? Im guessing Pre is button IN and post EQ is button out which seems to have a hotter output ?
  14. I’ve flipped from Ultex to Toretex, to Clayton, to Gator, to Nylon, to big stubby, etc etc Im back using Ultex but in 0.88mm instead of 1.14mm I find I don’t drop Ultex picks and find the lighter gauge allows for faster picking. We have just added the Trooper to the set ( amazed how Steve Harris uses fingers to play that quickly) we play it fast too !! So the 0.88mm Ultex just skips nicely across the strings for fast songs. Tone is a little brighter too but it just works well with roundwounds and a PBass
  15. I was considering the EVO V to go with my EVO IV … instead after talking to Ashdown they did me a great deal on the CTM100 head The EVO V does sound like a great amp and that custom front is really smart looking.
  16. Question How do you run your master volume ? On my CTM100 I run it on max and adjust gain for final volume This gives lovely power tube warmth and growl I find yet keeps max clean headroom So are you an input gain up high and master volume to adjust final volume or How I run mine ? Just curious!
  17. Friday night gig, not as many out as we would of liked, sign of the times I guess. Still the Ashdown rig had a good blast.
  18. I’m now gigging the CTM100 head in our rock band Superb amp
  19. I’m still using Fender Pure Nickel RW on my basses, nice sound and decent life / price
  20. Funny thing last night I heard Stormzy last night on the TV after getting home from rehearsals and the bassist in his band was playing finger / thumb on a five string Jazz and it sounded great. However the drums / guitar were low in the mix so the bass was easily heard
