blunderthumbs Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) They don't come along in this condition very often but here is my Abm 500w 4 x 10 combo. It has been kept in a flightcase since I bought it new in 2000 so there are no scuffs or rips in the tolex anywhere. Not getting used now other than in the house due to me aquiring the smaller 2 x 10 version. Same trouser flapping power but kinder on my back as this one weighs 46kg without the flightcase. No crackles or hums all works as it should. This cost me just over a grand when new and still looks as pristine as the day I bought it. (Flightcase not included in sale, as need it for the other combo) (Ashdown spec)............ 576 watts rms 900w peak 4 ohms 4 x 10" + horn Celestion speakers. Low imp input. High imp input. tuner out socket, sub out socket, effects send & return, D.i output, speaker outputs (Min 4 Ohms) Stereo line inputs. Mute button (Footswitch included) Dual triode tube on the input section (Valve). Sub harmoniser control (This makes the windows rattle!!! ) This really is a quality piece of MADE IN ENGLAND kit. I used this on stage with my Ashdown Abm 1 x 15" 300w cab and the sound is thunderous. Could arrange courier but might cost a bit. Looking for £375 which I think is reasonable for this as it really is as new. Any trial welcome Edited October 6, 2012 by blunderthumbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spodiddley Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 i've hired this amp many times for stage use and would love to own one but Mrs Spod would force an immediate resell! Have a bumb on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.young Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 [quote name='blunderthumbs' timestamp='1335607526' post='1633610'] I Can't believe that this has been on here since Sept and I've not even had a tyre kicker. [/quote] Me neither. Normally I wouldn't give anything Ashdown house-room, but I've used one of these and they are different, they really make a great sound and plenty of it.

mrtcat Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Very depressing that this is still available. Shows just how slow the market is. This is a smashing combo. Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunderthumbs Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 I don't understand this. My amp has been on here since Sept. I have seen other Ashdown amps and cabs come and go but mine is still here despite a price drop to £375. This is a F...ing steal LOOK AT THE CONDITION!!!! Made in the UK Original Celestion speakers. Never abused WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR THIS MONEY !!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6v6 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 This looks like exactly what I'm looking for (first "real" gigging bass amp), I have cash ready from a guitar sale, but I'm in Hampshire! Any idea what a courier would cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottswarwick Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hmmm, could be tempted. I suspect the weight might be an issue?... Presumably the "cab" section is an 8 ohm 4 by 10, so could be used with an additional 8 ohm cab to make a mahoooosive stack? I want something Ashdown, this could be "it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
