When setting up the input level I can hit one string & hardly see it move but hit another string & it nearly touching the red So I try to get some where in between The while doing a gig the needle is going mental & going right into the red, It doesn't bother me sound wise but just wondered if I was doing something wrong ?

Yeah I've had an ashdown, and pretty much ignored the meter. I'm sure it's perfectly accurate, but I found it exactly how you described it. As long as it didn't constantly max out, I'd be happy.

This. It's a gimmick.

Do what we used to do to 2-stroke racing motorcycles, block off the Rev counter either side of the power band. As long as you could see the needle, everything was fine :-)

If you got time to look down at the meters, you weren't going fast enough! :P
