Ashdown Klystron Classic 1000w Head **SOLD**

I'm well & truly p*ssed off with ebay buyers! Twice I had buyers pull out for stupid reasons.
So it's here again for sale and it must go as its taking up space in my hall and I can't take any more grief from the missus!

I bought a load of these in October brand new, but were incorrectly priced online. They didn't twig in time, and my order went through! Their loss - my gain. So this is up for sale at less than half Thomann price. It hasn't been used, and its boxed and unmarked.

So, the first reasonable offer will be accepted.Thanks,
Ian




Now £399 on dreaded ebay.

I was surpried how powerful the eq is on this amp. People often say the Ashdown is 'woolly', but I certainly wouldn't say that about this head. I tried it thru two Aguilar DB112 cabs and it has excellent clarity with a very big underlying bass. The new on-board compressor is extremely usable, even on high settings. Another BC member who bought one off me is extremely pleased about how his P-Bass is 'felt'. I'm not a big fan of distortion on bass, but the valve grind can be set so it only works when played hard. Which I guess might be useful. I like the bass clean!

That is a good price. These RRP for more, I guess coz they are british made, and current models. Anyway, someones bid at £399, so its sold. I'm happy with that. I may get more bids - you never know.

I love hearing a great drummer, but there's only so much drum practicing I can take! I got one the other side of my garden - and he ain't that good!

Well, that's at least £50 you owe me - if nothing else at least I've stirred the bidding up a little.

Couldn't bear to see such a funky head selling for so little money.

I've got a new heavier rock project on the go and a Klystron would do just nicely for that :)
