I might just wait for that badly described valve combo on Ebay I've been looking for - for a nice little home setup. Thanks again for't' heads up, p Quote
d-basser Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Is it possible to seperate the cabs and use them as part of a rig??? i need a little more top end with my TE Ah150 and peavey BW 15" half stack Quote

Use it as a practice amp and an OK extension cab on a bigger rig. Someone on BT had one of these, I don't know if he's moved over though, I'd like to see the back of one. Quote

MB1 Posted June 10, 2007 Author Posted June 10, 2007 MB1. Strangely enough the cabs are both 60w 16 ohm with blueline speakers.great little practice amp though and very cool.im suprised at the quality of workmanship it truly is a mini rig,must admit it brings to mind the famous spinal tap moment in stonehenge and for £99 the bank managers happy too.

dave_bass5 Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 I was in SC yesterday and i thought it was a mistake when i saw all the mini rigs with the £99 sticker on them. Ive no use for one but it does seem a good price. They had hardly any other Ashdown stuff in. a few cabs, a MAG combo and i didnt see any ABM heads. Quote
MB1 Posted June 11, 2007 Author Posted June 11, 2007 MB1. be) Its actually a nice unobtrusive cheap piece of furniture too! so i keep telling her indoors! sound control seem to be buying up ashdowns discontinued stock. quickbuck ,fast turnaround, im not complaining! what can you buy for £99 basswise these days thats guaranteed for a year ?

NJW Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 thats absolutely terrifying. Imagine getting lost in the woods, only to find a huge orgy of dwarves and wizards, all playing bass riffs through ashdown mini stacks, naked, and making magic and stuff. Quote

owensy Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Just gone and bought the mini stack. I have only ever had a crappy 15 wat practice amp and I think that, for the price, its a bargain. Its nice to pay £99 and have a bootful of stuff these days!! Quote
