BassAdder60

Took the Elf along to band practice tonight and tried it with both my ABM210H cabs Its loud enough and good enough to cover as a backup. It really is amazing little amp My main amp is the CTM100 or ABM600

I had the GK Legacy 800 and found it was too modern and harsh sounding for my ears, moved it on Shame as they have some great features but EQ points way off the likes of Ashdown or Ampeg

You will love the ABM600 for sure

+1 good idea

Definitely ABM600 is the amp to choose and is one of the best in the industry.., plus If you get a secondhand model and find any issues Ashdown U.K. will put it right mostly at no cost or the price of a packet of biscuits !! The only thing I’ve changed on my ABM600 was the preamp tube Great time to buy as the EVO V was launched and prices are falling on the ABM600 Check out the Ashdown owners topic on here and ask for any tips etc The amp is more of a gigging amp compared to a whisper quiet class D studio amp. However it has a great DI too for recording if that happens or sending it to the PA Finally it’s a very loud amp with authority in it’s tone that matches well with most genres Learn more about the “ Shape” feature too as that makes a difference on the amp in a band

Looks like it’s threaded ? But perhaps the threads are stripped ? Superglue back in place would maybe work

My new Ray34H was going to be my forever bass, it cost approx £1100 It was a terrible bass in my opinion for that price tag and I didn’t gel with it so after three months I sold it at a loss. Purchased for £700 a Player Series PBass in Tide Pool blue and it’s a gorgeous bass and very nice to play. It really is a gamble finding great basses even spending decent money especially online

+1 this one .. great stand 👍

As a local band we have always kept our rates very low as a way of supporting venues. If they have a good night we get paid more We do it fun and payment is a bonus to the joy of gigging. If we ventured further afield we would have to double our rates to cover fuel etc etc so we try to stay local and limit to one or two gigs per month. Biggest problem is jam nights, open mic nights and duo acts!! Venues are struggling for sure but some don’t do much to encourage people to attend and wonder why they had a quiet night !

Thank you so much .. I appreciate it 👍

My rig as used last weekend Our local brewery gig 👍

I always found even the PF800 lacking in power compared to other similar rated Class D heads The TE Elf for example is a very loud 200w head and low price The Ashdown RM series are also very loud amps in comparison Its a shame Yamaha havnt made some new class D ampegs as they are well overdue I feel

I had for a few days the V2 version and didn’t get on with it. Very dark sounding and the EQ made little difference Sent it back for refund

Ok no worries.. it’s was a nice to have if it was possible Martin

Ideally keep all my posts from both but instead of it saying”guest” BassAdder27 it points to my current account BassAdder60 please I can confirm I’m the same person and same email etc in both cases

I like the TC clip on tuner works very well

Living nearby to @lownote I too find our local Suffolk / Norfolk music scene some what limited !! We have a few decent pubs booking bands in the villages but times are tough and they seem to be cutting back. A point I notice alot is that the venues are rubbish at promoting live music so it’s a challenge making sure you post on social media about your next gig. We play at a local brewery and they have a great FB page but they don’t promote the live music they have booked and they ask why attendance is poor !!

Earlier this year I closed my BassAdder27 account ( don’t ask ) !! Ive rejoined as Bassadder60 Can my old posts be moved to my new Bassadder60 instead of showing Guest etc ?

Sold my TU-3 to him this week and it was an easy transaction with prompt payment and good communication Recommended buyer

Definitely recommend this small amp to folk looking for a lower wattage head It sounds better than many bigger amps I’ve tried over the years For just over £200 it’s a bargain

Added the Elf today as a backup amp It’s a amazing little amp, lovely tone and very loud for such a small amp I like it

Just ordered the Elf from PMT Will be a handy backup head I think

Thanks for the advice I think I will seek out a new Elf ( for warranty ) and order one soon

I was thinking along the same lines such as a new TE Elf purely as a back up. I know it would struggle but it would provide the Di too and give a bit more tone control I had the Sansamp bass driver but sent it back, preferring my CTM100 without it so for £250 I could buy a small amp !
