Sibob Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 (edited) Hey guys, Just got back from tour, and literally at the last show last-night, my trusty Ashdown gave up the ghost. "Woooo typical Ashdown" you may be saying, but this is the first glitch in it's working life for getting on for 5 years, so I'm not angry. Having said that, it has left me in the lurch for my three covers gigs this weekend while it's being fixed! Has anyone got a spare amp head, anything really (size within reason, no massive old school peaveys lol), 300 watts upwards, that they're not using this thursday, friday and saturday???? I'm in High Wycombe South Bucks and the first gig is in Oxford centre tomorrow night (thursday 13th), so getting it from Oxford could be done. I know there's some guys here around my area, so am just crossing my fingers really! Yes I know it's time to get a spare amp , if only funds permitted it lol Thanks guys, much appreciated!

johnnylager Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 500w ABM EVOII 2x10 combo + 2x10 extension in Brighton if your really stuffed, but the price of petrol nowadays, it'd be cheaper to get a new head than drive down here twice!

Mike Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Just to clarify, I'm not using my Hartke head with tuner and compressor at the mo, so you don't need to worry about getting it back to me ASAP - no rush whatsoever. I'm using something else. Good luck in your search! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
