NCD... Heavyweight 2002 Ashdown ABM cab.

[spyder]

I've just picked up or should I say struggled to pickup a 2002 Ashdown ABM 410 cab. ( 35kg )

I normally don't use a 410 but I wanted a home / studio / have fun with cab to match my ABM head.

It looks like an early ABM Evo due to the date and use of blue drive units?

The back plate only has 1/4 inch jack inputs so I'm assuming it's a cross over model from the original ABM to the Evo range?

Information on this old model would be gladly received from the hive mind.

I think that model is 600W. I toyed with getting one of them about 20 years ago, but the weight put me off.

 

I think the joke is that Ashdown recently launched the new ABM range and the 4x10 are still 35kg and they're trying to charge £1300 for them. It's almost like time has stood still and chiropractic costs have come down.

It is the 600w model according to the back plate. Serial number ends in 0202.

I noticed the new UK ABM range also on the Ashdown website.

Latest UK made 410 is 35kg but the power handling has increased.

Mine is not leaving the house / studio.

Gone are the days lifting that weight in and out of the car.
