See if Ashdown will send you an 8 ohm speaker for you're combo

Overwater are a quality act and the headstocks look fine to me. They are recognisable at a distance, which is what they were designed to do.

The worst neck joint I have ever seen was on an overwater jazz bass I used to own,it had 4.5mm of very rough plastic shimmingin the neck cavity which left virtually no wood to wood connection,Just a large air gap.

When I complained to overwater they weren't interested & said that it was perfectly acceptable on a bolt on bass !

Sorry for going o/t

Rant over 😀

I agree with you Merton,It's my favourite amp too.

I like this 

Most people hate it

Obviously they are wrong

😁

I recently acquired an Ashdown CTM100 too & really hated my Barefaced Big Baby 2 cab with it.

After trying various cabs I finally settled on a Fender bassman neo 410 & find it brilliant with my CTM100.

I also tried the bassman neo 115 too & that is also an excellent cab,so if a 410 is too large for you the 115 is certainly worth a look (It's fairly compact too)

It's only the handle rattling 😁

My CTM100 through my fender bassman neo 410 is sublime & bloody loud too

It's quite a practical design, really - it doubles up as a bottle opener

You dirty rotten scoundrel you 😲

G&L's (simply because of the utterly ridiculous headstock) 

I'm sure there are others but I can't think of them right now...

How very dare you sir !

😁

 

For old school I can highly recommend the CTM100.

 I found my Barefaced BB2 really didn't work well for the sound I wanted so moved it on,I think you will need a 4x10 to get the sound you're wanting.

I tried several cabs at gear4music & settled on a Fender bassman neo 410,it suits me perfectly + comes with wheels too which my old arthritic knees like.

It's a great album with a few really excellent tracks on it,my band play four of them in our set 😁

I put a set of TI's on my G&L Jazz & I'm just loving it,even just playing acoustically it sounds Mega.

True, I could jump into every Hartke thread and shout loudly about how the Kilo ( their flagship amp) I recieved the day after they launched here, crapped out after less than 8hrs use, and the following 3 months of smoke and mirrors and utter horses**t from Korg UK  (their distributor at the time) but I let it go, it was resolved in the end, I wouldn't pass water on Hartke if they were on fire again but I know plenty here swear by them and good luck to them all.

+1 me too,Hartke didn't give a damn when my new Kilo died,they didn't ever return any of my emails.

I got my CTM100 second hand from here & when i phoned Ashdown (twice) for a little advice they couldn't have been more pleasant/helpful to me so they get a big thumbs up from me.

I have an Ampeg Scrambler which I really like,easy to use & capable of some immense sounds.

I think you’ll find yourself in heaven

1st gig with this rig tonight & heaven was indeed achieved,what a cracking combination,I love it.

I had a singer from another band in the audience complimenting my playing & my tone too, top night.

Best bass cab I've had I reckon,it blows my now departed BB2 away imo.

Typical of my luck 😁

We had a rehersal on Tuesday night so I was really looking forward to trying out my new cab.

The wife was out in her car so I had to use my old Mercedes 2 door coupe,but the cab won't fit in the boot & there's no chance I'm putting it on my lovely leather seats so I had to use the cab at the studio 😣

So the very first time I hear my rig will be at Saturdays gig in Bradford - bring it on

Looks like a cracking set up! I can see why you didn’t like the BB2 with the CTM, I suspect the “best” BF cab for it would be a Four10. Great amps and I wish I still had mine!

Thanks Merton 

I thought about a BF410 but it was just over my maximum budget.

I've not heard the CTM through it yet but I can't wait,it's such a sweet amp I think it will really sing through this cab 

Thanks Lozz 

It sounded awesome in the shop through they're Bassman 800,my guitarist/best mate was really impressed with it 

I went to Gear4music yesterday to try out some speaker cabs to go with my CTM100 valve amp as my (Now departed) BB2 didn't provide quite what I was looking for with this amp.

First I tried a b-stock Laney Nexus N410 which I quite liked,good tone & quite punchy but I hated the honky horn.

I wanted to try a TC Electronics K410 but sadly it was out of stock.

Then I tried the Fender bassman neo 410 & a had wow moment,it made the Laney sound like a toy.

What an amazing speaker cab,bass aplenty with loads of punch & the tweeter is so sweet with no harsh honkiness at all,I really loved it immediately,it jusy had to come home with me.

Now I'm itching for the new year so I can hear it in a band setting & I'm certain it'll be awesome.

I have one of these but live too far away for you to try it,however I can confirm these are awesome amps.

I will never go back to a class D unit now this thing has way way more ooomph than my MB800 FUSION ever had & is plenty loud enough to compete with our insane drummer.

In excellent condition,full working order

I never seem to use it so it may as well go to someone who will use it rather than sitting here collecting dust.
