Are you selling the Ashdown? How wide is it as some are wider than the new Neo Cabs

Strongly recommend the Ashdown ABM210H- PN Neo cabs Sound really good and sensible price

How about 3M Helicopter tape ? they use it on .. well helicopters ! but also bikes numerous colours or clear and easy to stick on curved shapes Not sure how the glue would effect the headstock though ! Rhino tape is similar tape too

In my guitar days turning your guitar volume down always had a negative result on the sound / tone So question do you find backing off on the Bass guitars volume control make any difference to the general tone of your sound ? It’s nice to able to back off on the volume control on certain songs or perhaps when reverting to pick playing and then back to fingers etc Comments ??

Those 210H Pro Neo cabs are very punchy and full sounding. Not as deep as some ported cabs but deep enough and good dispersion too As a stack you can easily hear yourself and it looks good too !! The Tweeters are very bright so I turned both off. Can carry in one hand and very compact Worth checking out

You could ask Ashdown to check it out but sounds wrong if the VU needle is where you said and the red light comes on ! Is it a really hot output bass ?? I would definitely turn the input gain down until you no longer see the red light

Just ordered a second matching cab for the ABM210H This will make a nice rig I think and so light too

Yep the Original 500 has been also dropped but the smaller Original HD1 ( Red one ) is still available on the website If you look at the number of heads they offer it’s huge so I’m not surprised the slower selling models have gone Only just discovered that the RM800 has different feet spacing ( screwed on ) compared to the RM500 that has stick on feet I believe ?? and the feet are wider apart which sits on the top handled cabs better

Just noticed the RM300 head has been discontinued Ashdown said most people purchased the 500 or 800 models I did see Andertons have ten in stock if anyone interested?

My Ampeg PF115LF was up for sale on here and now sold Its ported but gets better reviews than the sealed version !

It’s not easy finding rugs that match rigs but I managed to source one 👍🤟

The new ABM210H EVO IV Pro Neo arrived today Lovely match with my RM head And so light, single handle lift Will add a second one in time.

I’m sure the custom shop would !!

What are the ABM210H EVO Pro Neo cabs like to lift with just one top handle ? Any covers for them out yet ?

I liked the diagonal design as it raises the cab height slightly too 👍

Just ordered the ABM EVO 210 Pro Neo cab to go with my RM head Will use this for small gigs and practice and add a second for large gigs I like the the layout of the two tens in this cab ie not side by side but diagonal like the RM cab Decided to let my Ampeg PF115LF go

So after going back and forth I’m certain I will stay as a finger player 99% of the time I have found that by adjusting my amp EQ I can get a pleasing punchy full tone that is good for the rock I’m playing. Im going to put some Prosteels on my bass next time too for a little more brightness / bite Good as I am with a pick it doesn’t connect in the same way as fingers from a feel point of view

That makes me think do I buy a second PF115LF so I have both when huge volume needed ( rare ) or a BF210 so I’m left with two cabs that I wouldn’t run together and use on their own Maybe the 212 would be the way but they are so expensive!!

When you run your BF210 vertically how does it effect the port which I believe is at the side, so when vertical it will be facing the floor Would a single BF210 be loud enough to gig in most pubs etc a four piece rock band ?

I would be tempted to go for a BF210 cab Might consider that in the future

Interesting discovery today with my RM800 Playing with a pick ( starting to prefer for my current rock plans / band ) my previous EQ settings on the RM800 just didn’t work where I had them for finger style. You may recall I said using the Shape In ( smiley face EQ ) was too boomy with fingers .. well Using a pick and selecting Shape In and EQ all flat ( or out ) the tone with a PBass was superb and deep yet punchy I could roll back the tone on my PBass to get a warmer more rounded tone or bright and zingy by cranking it. It just made the amp come alive and the input gain increased too by pushing in Shape so I pulled that back a tad. Do you think amp designers design the basic EQ sound around a pick player or fingers ? To me the Ashdown seems more alive and at home with a pick and PBass Interesting! Also I had planned to get a second cab at some point ( using the Ampeg PF115LF) but the clarity and perceived loudness playing with a pick may make this unnecessary!!

Mine came as a players pack of six in different colours but all standard version I believe
