AndyTravis Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Held off for a while on this, had to wait for some bits to arrive. So I’ve used Ashdown exclusively for years, probably since about 2009 - previously I’d used Trace Elliot and then SWR. I still love Ashdown, think they’re a great company and make some unbelievable stuff. Literally just fancied a change. Initially started looking for a 410 - I Miss that air that a big fat deep cab moves. I found @bigthumb was selling an EBS proline 410 and as he’s local, jumped at it. Then I set about looking for a head. I always fancied a fafner II or TD650 as they look brilliant. The fact that I don’t have huge amounts of cash was a deciding factor...but there was loads of conflicting opinions on the 650 vs the 350 ve the Reidmar. Cue a discussion with resident expert @EBS_freak who was really gracious and helpful. He reminded me that @Dood was selling a Reidmar 750. A day or so later...here we are. Very, Very (VERY) loud. Super clean - but will investigate the settings more at rehearsal as my neighbours are all poorly with Covid19 and I don’t want to disturb them too much. Enjoying it so far.

bigthumb Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Superb! I'm delighted that the cab will get some proper use and not just an ornament in the spare room as it was here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My drummer is mega excited - he toured Germany with a guy who was an endorsing artist for EBS about 5/6 years ago “I furkin lurve dat ebs click when der’z slapping” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted November 2, 2020 Author Share Posted November 2, 2020 FFS... fancied a blue amp jewel (the “on” light) as EBS seems to use blue in a lot of their stuff. bought a blue jewel. arrived...put it on. The light on the reidmar it’s a yellow LED in there...makes the blue jewel shine yellow 😂😂😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
