  1. I actually played 2 gigs with a little bastard and a barefaced two10. One gig was with a brass jazz band out doors ! and it held up 'OK' the other was in a pub, same set up, where the landlady really didnt want us to be too loud. The guitarists were using 7 - 15W amps. Again it held up Ok with a smidgen of overdrive, which was fine. I typically use my Ashdown Spyder 550w hybrid as its a bit more portable and with way more headroom. I think I'll just use the CTM100 for rehearsal
  2. I think the UK import tax (B*word) uncertainty thing might have put people off as I'm based in Ireland. I just had a look at the Ashdown website and they now selling at £1499..crazy !
  3. I suppose it was about a size statement...but a traditional 2 * 10 isn't exactly unwieldy. I don't think that series of cabs was very successful for them
  4. I wondered about these and nearly bought one, I reckon a barefaced One10 would kick its derrière .
  5. I had my CTM100 for sale there as I already had a little bastard and was looking for a compact had. I'm glad I didn't sell in the end but there seemed to be zero interest in valve heads in the general bass community. The amp was going at a VERY reasonable price. None of my bass playing friends have any interest in tubes. Is this a niche community ?
  6. I had one I found it to be very loud in the mid range but a bit harsh sounding and muddy overall . I think a standard 1x12 with a tweeter would’ve sounded way better and not half the weight .
  7. You should be able to pick up a little bastard for around £350 or less. I found one for €250 in the NL which was an absolute steal. You wont blow the doors off the place but it has decent enough poke for small sessions and they sound great.
  8. Amp Withdrawn from sale, please close sale, Thanks
  9. I’m out Sandberg Basic 4 🙈 im not even sorry 😀
  10. Unfortunately I'm in Ireland and there isn't really Bass specialists in Ireland like Bass Direct. There are equivalents to Gumtree but I find I end up dealing with tire kickers that basically want stuff for free.
  11. I sold one of my basses as it was just sitting unused, A great bass and all, a Mayones Jabba 4. I'm trying to be minimalist and use the one-in, one -out rule but it's very hard to shift gear lately .
  12. Going through some serious 5-string / Amp gas at the moment.
  13. I could ship it up to up no hassle 😅
  14. HI There Selling this great amp, just need to downsize. Its been pretty much unused since its service at Ashdown Engineering in 2020. All the valves are very fresh and its ready to go. Price doesn't include shipping, I can find that out before I ship. Point to note, I cant get a straight answer for British buyers as to import duties that may need to be paid at your end. As far as I can tell, as its made in the UK it might be exempt but I'm not 100% about that. If anyone knows please let me know. I believe there's no issues if shipping to NI. Not much more to be said about this amp, 100W into 2/4/8 ohm taps, passive EQ. 19kg. Best suited for 4 x 10 or bigger. No Trades please, thanks for looking
  15. Anyway, i think I'll sell a UK built amp.
  16. I just sold a bass so surely that gives me a free pass 😬
  17. What’s the mm bass like ?
  18. Nobody took any photos or video ☹️
  19. Played a load of old timey jazz numbers with a 10 piece Dixieland/New Orleans band as their stand in bassist. Not my usual thing but its great to get out of your comfort zone and it was great fun and went down a storm. Gear = Fender P bass, Ashdown Spyder, Barefaced Two10. Sounded Superb.
  20. Count me in, I want to stop buying gear I barely use and make what I have work for me.
  21. The guy on the far right …is that a mullet flap over his right shoulder 😅
  22. This rig can actually do anything I need it to do . I was thinking of selling the amp but played it a few times lately at rehearsals and realised it sounds perfect.
  23. Right ! 2022, I’m not going to commit to no purchases but I really need to exercise the one-in , one-out rule. I hate having good gear not being used 🤔
  24. It depends on the BF cab, the 12” series are very HiFi sounding , clear, accurate and powerful. The 10” series are more old school sounding
