Ashdown RM800 EVO (thanks @Ashdown Engineering!) and two Barefaced One10s. This little rig is a killer combination

Sexy and classy. Like me.

Greg has just bought* an Eden head from me. Given that I’m in Germany today it couldn’t have been easier! Top chap to deal with * strictly speaking he’s paid for it but doesn’t yet have it, I’ll be packing and sending it tomorrow... but his part of the deal is done and was a pleasure

I do a similar thing with the EQ at home but given I have fairly bring roundwound strings I just do it to tame the treble!

That EQ positioning is the same on the Little Bastard - due to the hand wiring and order of the preamp I think

Will PM so as not to derail Dave’s thread further than I already have!

I just bought an Ashdown head on eBay that I really don’t need, so I should actually really get on with selling my Eden head and shut up about the GK 🤣

I like GKs, they’re my second favourite behind Ashdown these days 🤓 And did the XLR, I’ll DI from my SansAmp first. So, hand it over 🤣

Remind me, @Passinwind, did you do a build thread or similar for your amp? V intrigued by it

Dave you don’t need all those little amps, you should give me your GK. That’s right, give. 🤓

Maruszczyk have been mentioned already, plus I’d vote for a custom built Zoot Funkmeister from our very own @Cosmicrain - he built me this absolute stunner recently and I love it. Slimmed down body works perfectly I believe @sk8 currently has one in gestation too

What about these guys? https://www.alperious.com/

Seems an excellent choice for a backup amp if it lives up to its claims. I guess the ICEpower ASC700 board lives under the hood like most of these new “800W” class D amps...

I’m sure you’ll love it

Love it

They’ve done batches in both UK and China; the last batch they’re actively advertising now is UK custom shop because they’ve strictly speaking moved on to the CTM30 Stubby head instead (which is equally awesome with a different preamp). 2/3 of my Ashdown heads (including my LB) are Chinese-made and are absolutely fine

Got a Little Bastard which is essentially the same amp in teenage clothes. It’s bloody wonderful, perfect for home use but can also do gigs if you have sensitive enough cabs, are going through the PA and like it dirty

Loving the CTM and dual Compact rig! If I had the space I think that it is mighty close to my dream rig, though maybe I’d go for two Super Compacts instead coz they are my favouritest of all cabs ever. Glad it’s working out

Not saying it’s a bad thing, just saying I’m led to believe that’s what has occurred

From what I’ve been told from others within the industry. As far as I understand it Marcus Miller is basically on a wage with them. Glad to be proven wrong if my information is dodgy

I’m waiting for an opportunity to run a rig with both my One10s and my SC, I’ll run the SC clean and the One10 stack overdriven. It’ll be ace. Completely different to the aims of this thread but fun nonetheless 😎

I’ve used an SC+One10 combination and it sounds really very good IMO. So long as you’re sensible with the power being fed the One10 rounds off the SCs harsher mids. The one thing I would say is that one time I did this it was without PA support so moving extra air was just the right thing to do but I actually don’t know how it transposed itself out into the room. Where I was standing sounded fine though
