    I like the pedal as it is although I agree a tune / mute would be perfect I like the fact that the preamp and tone / drive is all analogue only the Cab sims IR are digital A great in front of amp gigging tool

    A black Westone Thunder 1A was my first bass !!

    I gigged my CAR Jazz and it’s a lovely sounding bass It’s close enough to a PBass tone but with added clarity which was my aim Heavier than both my PBass guitars but after a 3hr gig I didn’t notice it. Highly recommend and a good gigging bass

    In addition … running the new Ampeg SGT-DI in front makes a great sounding amp very flexible with many tones available

    Did this sell ??

    Sounds really good .. I’m very impressed with it especially in front of my amps 👍
  12. BassAdder60
    They work well, no noticeable loss of tone and a good in the bag backup if you or the guitarist needs it

    Just purchased the dual channel Di box below ( passive ) and works really well. £35 approx from Amazon

    Ashdown are also I believe more pro A/B amps that can be easily repaired throughout its life, something they still stand by today. Class D for them is in some cases a disposable amp should it seriously go wrong IE power module dies etc However the other big brands are heading down that Class D road for very good reasons and that is the public want light weight gear now. We are slightly off topic but the question about modding an ABM600 to 2.67 ohms was purely out of interest if possible, it’s not. Mesa, Genzler, GK, Aguilar and more are offering amps to 2ohms or 2.67 ohms which today is fantastic for mixing 8 and 4 ohm cabs or running more combinations. The ABM600 is a superb amp and will remain with me for now sitting on my 4ohm Ampeg SVT212AV 600w cab.

    Well … spent more time on it and into my amp it’s bloody amazing and brings an added dimension to the sound. The SGT sound is the best I’ve heard for warm drive while retaining the low end. The choice of SVT or B15 is very good, SVT is a bit more gnarly and the B15 rounded and warm. A thing I discovered ( doesn’t affect me as this is the only pedal I will use ) that if you go into a TC Polytune tuner and link to the pwr input of the SGT you can hear a very quiet “ digital whine” Connected direct its silent I also at the start was confusing the SGT drive knob and the SGT level knob !! It sounded good but the correct use it was amazing. I ran my amp flat and used the SGT for EQ which nearly flat sounds good. The mid position Ultra Low and Ultra High on were used and sounded perfect. Highly recommended

    I did earlier this week and they said it’s not possible.

    The main cab is the Ampeg SVT212AV 4 ohm cab which when I got the ToneHammer 700 I decided to buy the matching SVT112AV 8 cab which together matches the 2.67 ohm rating the TH700 can run at. Amazing rig in so many ways. The Ashdown hasn’t been out of the house since so I was at the point of either selling it, using it with the SVT212AV cab only ( definitely good enough ) or discovering if Ashdown could mod it ( not possible) So that’s where I’m at and I might just use it on its own with my single SVT212AV cab and alternate between that setup depending on gig etc

    Mine arrived today, complete with power supply in the box. Quick test in front of my TH700 amp and it’s nice that it doesn’t tone suck when off, good .. Preamp on and it sounds very nice and compressor works well enough to use ( a bit like the comp on PF amps ) Ultra low and Ultra high add a nice EQ change and the SGT is very very nice in both SVT or B15 mode. I think they have done a good job with this pedal and first impressions are it’s better sounding than the SCR-DI Top price but I think it’s worth it, you could gig with this straight into the PA or use it like me in front of amp for extended EQ and compressor duties with drive
  19. BassAdder60
    Definitely loud enough with the 212 cab so it may be used with just one cab
  20. BassAdder60
    So it’s confirmed it’s not possible to mod and deemed a bad idea by Ashdown. Need to think about the ABM600’s future and maybe use it with my single 212 cab ( 4 ohms ) only or sell it ?? I have as said the Aguilar TH700 which is designed to run continuously at 2.67ohms so this was an idea that saved the ABM600 collecting dust !!

    Boss Katana 🤟

    Liking these picks from Fender Nice tone and grip / size
  23. BassAdder60
    I had the older SCR-DI pedal which was nice although the scrambler drive wasn’t great. Having recently tried an EQ pedal and compressor ( very mild setting ) in front of my TH700 I thought this would take their place. In fact three pedals as I would take my Spark Booster off too and just use the SGT and tuner pedal and run it into the TH700 input for extra tone and sounds ( rock )
  24. BassAdder60
    I’ve just ordered one 👍

    I found a method that mostly worked … set your finger style tone on amp with bass tone fully open and get a good sound. Then when switching to a pick back off the tone slightly on the bass to remove a bit of Uber bright sound. Having 1mm upwards picks helps with the switch in methods I find I can play songs in the set 80% with a pick and on some less rocky slow or dance ballads etc I can play using fingers over a clean sounding guitar in the band
