    [size=3][color=#000000][font=Calibri]Looking to trade my mint condition DiMarzio DP122 (Black Version) for something a little more traditional/vintage. [/font][/color][/size] [size=3][color=#000000][font=Calibri]Something like a Wizard Trade, Fender Original ’62, SPB-1 ect would be great – something with the woody P bass tone and thump but not lacking in the beef department. [/font][/color][/size] [size=3][color=#000000][font=Calibri]Sounds strange but if I could get a tone close to my Jack Casady then id be very happy [/font][font=Wingdings][font=Wingdings]J[/font][/font][/color][/size]

    From Dissa of this parish:- I got a really quick answer from the Ashdown Support: [i]"The Preamp on the CTM15 is solid State driving a tube back end[/i]..."

    Bravewood and Nash - always loved the look of them (never seen a nice looking Limelight, their 'relicing' is awful)
  10. Pow_22
    Aye, VERY overpriced

    They arent too close to me (im in Bolton). The quiet thing seems to be an inherent Ashdown thing (maybe its the vintage style voicing) but ive never felt they put out the volume of like-for-like competitors with the same rating. As i say my supposed 250w Hartke will blow the supposed 500w Ashdown away! I do love the DP200, only thing i could see me getting rid for would be something like an Ampeg V4B or V4BH. I like the b15 type stlying, the relatively light weight and the easy EQ, You say it has the same output as a CTM100?

    [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Ive got the Dp200 head that I run with a sealed 4x10 (Ashdown RM 414). I absolutely love it![/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Always been an Ampeg SVT user but was playing venues where I couldn’t crank it to get the sweet valve sound without killing people. I got this in a decent deal from an ex touring artist but when it arrived the power valves where shot. I whacked a set of Harma 6550’s in and experimented with the pre amp valves. Initially I switched the 12AU7 for a 12AX7 for more volume which did sound great. However, I then stuck a NOS RCA blackplate 12AU7 in the V1 and now it sounds even better.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [size="3"][color="#000000"][font="Calibri"]As with all Ashdown gear ive used its never seems quite as loud as the ratings suggest (the comparison I always use with the ‘quiet ashdown’ issue is my Hartke HA2500 will eat my ABM 500 alive for volume) but the tone is sweet and lovely. [/font][/color][/size] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [size="3"][color="#000000"][font="Calibri"]I do need to get mine serviced at some point as I just stuck the new power valves in without having them biased but so little is known about the amp and Ashdown seem hard to get hold of for advice on Approved Repairers.[/font][/color][/size]

    Trade for a decent small combo (Orange Crush, Ampeg BA, Ashdown etc)

    [quote name='Kevin Dean' timestamp='1433850029' post='2794500'] So are these Valve amps worth the extra ? [/quote] For me simply yes. Ive tried all concoction of pedals, emulators, hyrbrids etc....IF you want the valve sound (and i fully get that not everyone does) then it HAS to be a valve amp
  18. Pow_22
    Trade options added

    Haha true. Nearly as bright as my old Ashdown Bassometers, that thing actually hurt to look at!

    [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Pyramid Gold Flats USED (cut 2+2). These have come off my Jack Casady bass after around 5 or 6 hours use. They are my fave string on my P bass but I need something a tad brighter on the casady (have an old set of Fenders ill try). Nowhere near fully broken in but not packet-fresh either. These are the 105-40 gauge and are glassy smooth. Reasonably low tension and very much an ‘old school’ type flat, fairly thumpy and pretty dark. Very expensive brand new![/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]£25 posted in UK?[/color][/size][/font]

    If it looks genuine/natural (nash, sandberg) and not naff and like a kid with a sander has attacked it (limelight) then i think they can look quite cool
