    Had a great tone with my ABM last night using the pre-shape button but also leaving the EQ on and boosting the mids a little. I also have an Ashdown Spyder - would replicating the preshape on the ABM just be a case of scooping the mids on the spyder and boosting the bass and treble? Is it that simple?

    £220 type bump?

    A real shame as their flats and halfrounds in particular were fantastic. They did seem to change the recipe towards the end though and their newer flats were never quite as good as the original silkless ones

    Theres a vintage jazz bass doing the rounds on reverb and FB at £3k. 74 sunburst, all the right mojo, mainly original bar the pickguard. Ive literally just bought a cheap jazzer so i can leave my p bass at home on 'dodgy' gigs but that still doesnt mean im not looking to sell EVERYTHING for the jazz on reverb!

    Gorgeous amp and as already mentioned one of the more realistically priced of the ones I've seen online recently. GLWTS

    Think i may be looking to invest in one if/when my ABM shifts!

    I like Will’s pricing too, more realistic then a lot of other vintage bass specialists

    Ive read lots about these supposed ‘classic’ old amps but have never heard one in person. Ive picked up a cheapo Eden cab recently and the OCD nature in me has me looking at Eden heads. Research suggests they are clean but warm amps where the pre amp valve does very little i.e no breakup or growl but a general even deep/warm tone. I do like a slight ‘valveyness’ to my tone and a little growl but do have a few pre amp pedals that could provide this if needed. So, whilst they appear to have been discontinued for a while and eden are not the same of old does anyone here use one that can chip in with tonal comments?

    @AndyTravis she certainly is. Wearing Elites Groundwounds and due in for a set up soon. Have thought about ‘upgrading’ the pickups but to be honest sounds glorious as it 👌

    Matthew bought my Ampeg cab in a motorway services meetup, had a good geeky bass gear chat and no issues whatsoever

    Old thread resurrection but did anyone try these yet at all? Price seems ridiculous for the supposed quality

    As per my ampeg cab ad, im moving to a combo so this must go. One of the very first ABM’s (originally called Klystron) to come out from the early days of Ashdown. Tatty case but fully functional and sounds like an ABM should. Has a EHX 12ax7 fitted. Collection from Bolton or meet up possible. From Ashdown:- ...AND SO THE ABM WAS BORN And so the ABM was born, simultaneously setting new standards in tonal flexibility, power and reliability. The original name for these first amps was Klystron Bass Magnifier, inspired by a scene from Flash Gordon (one of Gooday's favourite movies) in which Doctor Zarkoff says: “Turn up the Klystron Magnifier”. The huge images of power depicted in the movie sat perfectly with the image and the sound Ashdown wanted to portray. With the name morphing to ABM (Ashdown Bass Magnifier), these early units were built by Gooday, his wife Jane, son Dan, and daughter Daisy in the living room of the family home every evening, allowing him to visit dealers and artists in the daytime. It didn't take long for the reputation of these incredible new amplifiers to get around.

No delivery im afraid but could meet up within reasonable distance. Pics to follow asap

    Does anyone here use one of these trouble free? Basically on paper they look perfect for my current needs and there are a few appearing used for sale. However, my usual pre-purchase digging is just bringing up lots of horror stories (mainly on talkbass i may add) of unreliable power amp sections. Im also aware though that for every bad story there are quiet happy users. I like the idea of a valve pre amp combo with the option of the vintage and modern settings and read that the b15 inspired vintage setting cops a great tone. Im aware that the driver wont put out anywhere near 600w but volume isnt generally to much of an issue with my current band. So, any happy users here or are all the horror stories true?

    A question for our resident vintage fender experts please. Does anyone know what years Fender changed the knobs on their Jazzes from the 'standard' type ones to the strat knobs? Seems to be late 70's/early 80's looking at online pictures but does anyone know definitive years at all?
