Which valve amp


walshy

Recommended Posts

Ok so I use the Aguilar DB751 as my main amp but want a valve back up/ smaller but a decent size. My TH500 is up for sale so looking for a home use and gig size back up. Weight doesn’t bother too much but must have heft and presence. Budget £750 ish

Any suggestions appreciated

Love mine to bits & it has all the volume I'll ever need too.

Just found one, almost brand new for £500, doesn’t seem a bad price. I’ve had the ABM Evo 600 which was nice, how does this compare? Any info welcome?

I've not used an ABM before so couldn't give you a comparison but it is the best sounding amp I have ever used,warm,punchy & very loud.

The bass,mid & treble controls don't do a lot but Ashdown sent me 3 new pots of different frequencies  which have made the eq much more useable,a mod I would recommend.

For £500 it's a total steal,they are brilliant amps.

If it's the CTM you've bought then good on you,I'm sure you will love it once you get used to it.

Any questions just ask 👍

It is indeed, CTM100, I was tempted with the Handbox too but £500 man, seemed too good to pass up. Yeah I’ll fire some questions if needed when it lands, ta mate

Oh yeah !,  I have one of these Ctm100's,  everything that the other members have said and better all rounder than my Ashdown Bta300 hybrid, which I can barely carry !
