"Ashdown Made in the UK showcases a premium range of bass amplification hand-built at Ashdown's UK HQ, combining British craftsmanship with modern performance." so yes.

Yes, I was quite impressed to see their UK range

To me, Tort always makes anything look cheap, probably because some of the first no name basses I had used tort. White and black work.

Way ahead of you, I predictively boycotted them as I knew it would come to this I think both of my rics and bongo are old enough, and will do for now! I would assume that all budget guitars in the US have gone up, except maybe chinese builds where they can afford to reduce the price.

Not sure at that pitch you would hear the difference!

Probably not a good comparison. It does bass bass better, but then it would do, it is tuned down to f# standard at the moment! I would say it feels more solid than most of the ibanezes (with maybe an exception of the 5005), playability would be fine if I had longer fingers!

I figure that noone is ever going to make more of an effort than an audition, so if he can't be bothered with that he will never be bothered. Sometimes you can mess stuff up playing, that is reasonable but the late and hungover at 3pm would be a no from me.

I think most of them are already sold. I found it pretty hard to get answers from them by email when I was asking about my sei

Like if you have a number of cables running together, he found that having a power cable and an audio cable running next to each other. But that seems not that likely

Oh thats really bad, I assumed you meant just like the occasional pop or click. Is it on one side or is it both? oh I see what you mean, it appears as a signal on all inputs. Are those inputs plugged into anything. It does rule out the speakers, and I would think it either has to be the power supply or the unit itself. Is it connected to any bluetooth / wifi at this point?

Maybe I don't know, I don't use them. But its worth trying to rule out what is causing the issue. Does the AH have an external power supply or a proper plug?

I was referring to the positioning. Ultimately any passive circuit unless you are using rick-o-sound the tones affect the other pickup. Gibsons are far worse because the volume affects the other pickup too!

You get those AJD lit up speaker stands, looks like that: https://www.gear4music.com/PA-DJ-and-Lighting/ADJ-Colour-Stand-LED-Speaker-Stand-With-LED-Legs/27VU
