  1. Thanks for the input guys, very helpful and appreciated. I will email ashdown about sending it back to be replaced. I've already seperated the head from the chassis, hopefully that should bring postage costs down a bit. The electric blue is such a good little combo i cant bear to part with it!! Thanks again people.
  2. Ashdown replied to me stating it sounds like a dodgy transformer so you guys were right on the money! any idea what i would be looking at cost wise to repair?
  3. My 2005 Electric Blue 15-180 states ''manufactured in the UK'' on the back.
  4. [quote name='Protium' post='782571' date='Mar 22 2010, 04:48 PM']Could be a power supply problem, but just to clarify are you replacing the fuse underneath where the power cable connects into the amp? If so are you using the correct time-delay fuse?[/quote] Yes it is where the cable connects to the amp. I swapped the fuse that had blown for a identical replacement (T2AL 250V) 5 years of flawless service from the amp and this is the first thing to ever go wrong with it!
  5. The lead is in as new condition and ive even tried it with my ps3!, it works without blowing that up i think your right, im not trying the amp again through fear of being fried!
  6. It originally blew at the practice rooms, i replaced the fuse and tried it at home and it did the same thing. Do you think it could be the actual power cable itself maybe?? Cheers
  7. The 250v fuse that is actually in the connection on the amp keeps blowing. I put a new one in, it blows as soon as i turn the amp on, having gone through 3 fuses now, what does anyone think this could be???? i need to sort pronto!! Many thanks guys
  8. had 4 or 5 people enquire but i'll still give it one final BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. For me it didnt bother me one bit paying £600 for the ray 34. I did look at secondhand American Stingrays but the decent ones were all hovering around £700 plus. By buying the Ray 34 i more or less got the same thing in a finish/colour that i wanted (as opposed to waiting ages for the right one to appear in the right colour) and with a years warranty. Plus it was new!! it means it soul will always be mine!! mwah hahahaha!!!!!
  10. My Warwick Pro Fet 3.2 head and Wca 410 Pro cab have to go!! Its the 4ohm cab so it means the head pumps out the full 300watts. Owned from new since 2007, more or less unmarked, never ever pushed to the max. Onboard Compressor, contour switch (for slapping) bright and deep boost, mute switch, ground lift, etc etc. Had tonnes of compliments form other Bass players the times i have gigged it, weirdly enough it was the same compliment, its powerful and very clean with it. Criminally underrated amps, mine is louder and cleaner at volume than an Ashdown Mag 300 and tonally is a lot punchier and growlier than most around this bracket. Cost me £500 new in April 2007 Will take £275 and not a penny under!!! buyer to collect (from Chipping Norton) due to weight of the items.

  11. Ive had my Natural Ray 34 for a month now and am stoked with it. Having fairly recently played a real American Stingray i am stunned at how this thing is identical in every way bar where it was constructed. The sound is identical, the feel is identical, the looks are identical and the build quality on mine is simply sublime. Its also easily stacks up well against the SUB, better looks and equally as well built and comes with the with the 3 band eq (although i dont touch the mid control!) Ernie Ball should have done the Ray 34 thing 15 years ago.
  12. Best - Soundslive. Excellent service, pricing, communication, good stock levels. Ordered a Sterling Ray34 in natural, was out of stock but they got new stock in very quickly and i had it delivered within 5 days of the order. Worst - GAK Online. Slow as hell and poor communication (do they actually stock anything?). I waited 4 weeks for a Fender Geddy Lee to be delivered, they really should list what they ACTUALLY have in stock on the site!!!. Also waited 4 weeks for my warwick wca 410 pro cab and when arrived it was the 8ohm version ( i'd ordered 4 ohm) so i waited even longer for the correct one to arrive.
  13. You must be the guy that bought it from me! Its a cracking bass but i definately agree with the wearing it up high thing, its impossible!
  14. i recently sold my Geddy On Ebay for Peanuts!!! They are great basses, well built with a solid punchy growl that i've rarely found in the Mexi Jazzes i've played. It was a 2008 MIJ with super build quality and finish. A real workhorse of a bass with a super fast neck ( found the gloss finish let the speed side down a bit) I couldnt recommend it highly enough. I have been hankering after the Stingray sound for years now so i sold it to fund a Ray34 (Awesome) if i had the money again i'd buy one of these like a shot, it has to rank as Fenders best bang for the buck bass out there.
