  1. The only UK made Ashdown heads from the current crop are the valve series as far as I know. I think the first batch of EVO IVs were UK too but now it's the custom valve heads and Foundation cabs only. I believe anyway...
  2. Lovely bass Alan's got a real talent for making beautiful basses which sit perfectly and play themselves IMO
  3. Ah glad you like it - I would feel somewhat responsible if you didn't!
  4. If money were no object I'd buy an awful lot of gear to have in a big soundproofed bass room, so I could pick and choose a different rig for each gig depending on my mood. It would end GAS and almost certainly result in some gigs being terrible as I struggle to get to grips with a certain amp or cab
  5. I suspect the power module Ashdown used in the LG1000 is no longer easily available but easiest way to find out would be to fire them an email. As for cabs - what impedance are they? You can run two 8 ohm cabs fro one side no prob
  6. The ABM is a cracking head - Discreet has my old one. I'd agree stick to two of the same cab type too, probably two 2x10s
  7. To be fair I've seen plenty of other manufacturer's cabs have peeling tolex issue, however it is normal after a few years not a few weeks/months!
  8. Yup, always wanted an ASAT purely because Cass Lewis played one
  9. Nice, glad it's worked out I'm now Barefaced-less for the first time in nearly 7 years Gear consolidation and not enough gigs has sent me down a different route (watch this space haha)
  10. Speaking of frequency-related hearing loss I tried that little slider and can hear nothing below about 35 Hz and nothing above 12kHz. I swear I did a similar test last year and still got to around 15 kHz, maybe my memory is also going :/
  11. Chris popped by earlier to buy a Barefaced Super Compact from me. Absolute pleasure as always
  12. Cracking bass dude
  13. Ridiculous bargain from a top chap indeed
  14. All except point 4. Not sure I understand this "properly" of which you speak?
  15. Thanks Martin Second cab now available, need the money sadly... £475 delivered to mainland UK £460 collected
  16. Glad you're back here and back living a healthy life
  17. Depends on your tonal goals. I also gig a 30W valve amp and its glorious but completely overdriven the whole time. If you want clean, avoid it
  18. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1446060981' post='2896636'] I had one of these and stupidly sold it. Wish I could afford this one. Valve pre not a gimmick, it runs at high voltage like an all-valve amp. Immense tone and very versatile. A bargain at this price. One of the best Class D lightweights out there in my opinion. [/quote] Oddly enough, I concur
  19. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1445876147' post='2894937'] In that case I may well pop down at some point then Alex. [/quote] I refer you to my comment regarding PayPal......
  20. Ah yes, I forgot you have a MAG still. In which case you'll probably love the RM, just keep well away from the "Shape" button!!
  21. [quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1445805191' post='2894416'] Going to look in to a louder head at some point. Maybe the Ashdown RM800. [/quote] In my opinion you won't go far wrong with one, it's a versatile little beast but I've not had huge experience with Mark Bass stuff so not sure how it would compare.
  22. Glad it seems to be the right cab, shame about the lack of gigs and I know where you're coming from there!
  23. There's always Paypal
  24. Paul's a top fella and looks after his gear, buy with confidence
