I really want to play through a proper Class A/B GK amp - only ever used their Class D stuff and liked it a lot. I can imagine the the old school stuff is incredible
I’ve moved on the Elf now. It was a superb little thing but I found myself hitting the limiter too often in outdoor gigs and just didn’t enjoy the tone. I’ve gone back to an Ashdown RM500 for my lightweight amp option and am much happier.
Gutted to say I'll be missing it this year Two gigs that day, so unless one of them decides to cancel I'll be out playing bass badly rather than ogling gorgeous basses and realising how stinky poo I am
Sort of. It’s actually a hybrid preamp - the solid state ABM preamp with a valve for drive - mated to a big mahoosive 300W valve power amp. It’s immense and glorious.
I have done this.
But, like @Bassalarky I have a deal with my missus - she has her horse and all its ridiculous expense, as long as we pay the bills and have holidays (ooops) the. Image doesn’t seem to mind. Much.
Yep. I might still accidentally buy one later this year and feign ignorance if Mrs Mert ever spots it
The Ashdown CTM30/LB30 is a bloody glorious amp, such a sweet sweet tone and certainly not big or heavy. The Stubby is even smaller and equally delightful IMO.
