Have a bump from a Puma 900 owner - packs a mighty punch and the taste control is all I tweak between songs, great stuff.

That's a very good description from tonyclaret above, as a Puma 500 owner (and former Shuttle owner) I fully agree.

[b][color=#ff0000]NOW SOLD[/color][/b] For sale: Ashdown Pi bass 240 amp, in full working order. Condition: excellent cosmetic condition, bought secondhand from eBay Where: Tonbridge, Kent. Can courier within UK for £5. Includes: orginal box, manual, power cord, instrument cord to speakon adapter (the amp has a speakon out) Selling because: Just bought Tec Amp puma 900, so this is now excess to requirements. My feedback link is in my signature. Description: This is the first version of this lightweight amp, running 240 watts into 8 Ohms. Here's the spiel from Ashdown ( [url="http://ashdownmusic.com/products/1/5a0/18/Legacy/101/PiBass-240/"]http://ashdownmusic....101/PiBass-240/[/url] ) [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Designed in conjunction with bass maestro Wojtek Pilichowski, the Pi-Bass 240 is an outstanding digital bass amp, delivering compact lightweight power and advanced tone-shaping at an ultra-affordable price. [/size][/font][/color] [b]Compact affordable power[/b] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Thanks to an innovative digital design, PiBass-240 packs 240W of glorious bass power into a box that weights just 1.5kg (3.3lbs) and is small enough to slip into the pocket of your gig bag. Despite its diminutive form, we haven't compromised on it's ability to deliver the fat low-end that Ashdown amps are renowned for – a sound that sets that standards amongst the lightweight competition. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Wojtek also specified a Ground Lift switch to eliminate problems with 'bad power' that can cause noise and other issues while playing live.[/size][/font][/color] [b]Powerful digital sound-shaping[/b] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Able to cover the widest range of styles, the powerful tone-shaping section leaves most compact amps in its dust, offering a truly flexible EQ able to nail any number of classic sounds and styles. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The four slider controls for Bass, Lo-Mid, High-Mid and Treble can be used to boost or cut each frequency range by up to 15dB. To the left of the Lo-Mid, High-Mid and Treble sliders are rotary controls marked FREQ-HZ. These are used to select the frequency at which the sliders boost or cut the signal.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The amp is set permanently in 'Bright' mode making it ideal for fast slap or rapid-fire percussive styles, but hitting the Bright switch will enable a warmer EQ shape with a richer, vintage flavour. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The powerful PiBass preamp features Input level switching to accommodate active or passive instruments.[/size][/font][/color] [b]Uncompromised connections[/b] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Bringing true flexibility to our most compact amp, we've also included a headphone output for silent practise and a professional DI output for connecting direct to a PA or recording setup.

England declare BUMP. I will now post with the Crest mounted inside the Spider 3U case, because it will help protect it in transit! Same low price
