Just saying.....[/quote] Aye, not just your eyes - shards of hot metal at 25000rpm will hurt wherever they get you

Or go out and test out as much gear as you can

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='487219' date='May 13 2009, 08:18 PM']He has the most awesome slap technique on the planet, so why not show it off once in a while?[/quote] Debatable, and the key point here being "once in a while" not every time he picks up a bass...

[quote name='PunkRockBass' post='487146' date='May 13 2009, 07:00 PM']That depends on where I'm playing. Most of the time like, between quarter to and half past, if that makes sense.[/quote] Not really, as a "half past" position is not possible on the control Try setting the input a little higher, use your ears not the VU. It may sound crap but worth a go.

[quote name='PunkRockBass' post='487117' date='May 13 2009, 06:25 PM']Whatttt?[/quote] OK... Rephrase: How high do you set the input volume (preamp control)

How far are you pushing the preamp?

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='486240' date='May 12 2009, 06:48 PM']I'm thinking of having mine serviced before I start gigging again - do Ashdown have a standard charge for a service? Anyone care to divulge said charge?[/quote] Didn't cost me anything except postage, but it was only little things like a loose valve and transformer that needed looking at.

ABM 300 EVOII here (built Dec 2005), only issues I've had are general wear and tear from gigging (recently sent to Ashdown for a service and was sorted within 10 days). Extremely reliable and LOUD! As has already been said - fat vintage tones

I will teach you in exchange for your Porsche

Ended on £485, gone to anyone here?

I'm self taught because I put the effort in and got good fast

A "build process" section showing a cab from bits of wood to finished product. More pictures, a gallery section maybe. Cabinet specs (not going into this again though )

I like tuning to slightly lower pitch (like setting the tuner to 235Hz) makes so much difference tonally IMO, the band were never keen to try it though

PM'd

[quote name='iamapirate' post='472907' date='Apr 26 2009, 08:15 PM']I have an ashdown Evo III, and on the new EVO IVs they have a foot controller for the sub-harmonics, EQ, etc. and I would definitely use it if I had a foot controller as when ever I'm doing somehing melodic ina breakdown high up the neck, it sounds really nice, but down in the first octave of a 4-string it sounds muddy [/quote] RTFM

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='480625' date='May 6 2009, 07:51 AM']I find some of the apparently uniformed negative comments re the LM II a bit narrow and perhaps 'anti' for the sake of it.[/quote] Bit like people slagging off Ashdown in every other thread

[quote name='beerdragon' post='479436' date='May 4 2009, 09:46 PM']Gene Hunt in Ashes to Ashes just bought a double whisky for fifty pence. [/quote] Finding a suspect because of it - and they say alcohol is bad for you

[quote name='Zoe_BillySheehan' post='479428' date='May 4 2009, 09:35 PM']ah haha ive posted 2, theres the 'im gunna nut you' one and the 'zombie' one Z x[/quote] The first one Zombie one reminds me to find my old film photos out the loft, esp the gig when the singer vomited all over himself onstage

4 hours is excessive IMO

[quote name='Zoe_BillySheehan' post='479352' date='May 4 2009, 08:27 PM']lol! Which pic? My display pic at the side??[/quote] The one earlier in the thread.
