AndyTravis 3,356 Posted April 2, 2019 Seen this? Looks fit. Would match my incoming purchase (also surf green). want to get my hands on a little stubby too. In fact, shove another 210 under that and I’d be made up. the white cones look (even more) amazing with the contrast. looks like an expensive want... 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyTravis 3,356 Posted April 2, 2019 https://ashdownmusic.com/products/ctm-30-ls-sfg-rig limited to 50?! How will I decorate my new house with them?! have asked if the 410/115 will be available. think it’s a dip of the toes before they do more (I bloody well hope it is!!!) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lee650 180 Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) I've never been a fan of ashdown! But I must say that looks gorgeous! I've always thought bass rigs look pretty bland! That changes things😁 Edited April 2, 2019 by lee650 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That changes things😁 They look ace in black since they put the white cones in them. i reckon they’ll be trying a few colours. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karlfer 318 Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) @AndyTravis great spot fella. 30 watts (valve or no), are no use to me. If that had been a RM 500 with 4 ohm cab they would already have my money. PLEASE Andy, if you see any more like this, that are practical for gigging, keep us all in the loop. Well done Ashdown & Andy!

Well done Ashdown & Andy! I asked if the amp head was optional, I reckon this is a tester. They’d deffo do a bigger head for you if you asked nicely. Think the stubby is phenomenal, but I agree 30w might not keep up for some. still kick myself for flogging the ctm 15 I bought from @CalDeep in candy apple red.

Merton 860 Posted April 3, 2019 Given that the basic external construction of the Little Stubby and RM500 are the same I suspect a Surf Green RM is well within their capabilities. Do it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tommygingell 22 Posted April 4, 2019 Looks great however I have tried the little stubby a few days ago and I wasn't massively keen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham 428 Posted April 4, 2019 If Ashdown thought there would be a decent ROI on installing a paint-shop, late-stage customisation like this would be a fairly easy thing to introduce to order-entry/manufacturing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
