Up for grabs is my 80s Ashly preamp.
Made in the USA and ahead of its time it is purported to gave been used by Geddy Lee during his exit stage left days and it was responsible for that amazing rickenbacker tone of that period. That's why I bought it but I've deferred back to an all on one solution for all things to do with tone by way of an Eden wp100 preamp.
The Ashly has an array of features; gain, presence, bass / mid / treble controls, parametric eq with frequency / curve selector for zoning in on that tone. It has eq bypass, effects loop, crossover control (fir biamping) stage level and DI control on the front.
On the back is crossover out, main line / instrument out, effects send / return and DI send / ground lift.

All in all it is superb and if you're looking for Geddy's Rick tone then this could be the answer although there is some debate ad to whether it was a bp41 or an sc40.

Will send it anywhere!
