guybrush threepwood Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) Ashdown 1x15 combo, featuring the highly regarded Spyder amp. This is also one of the first released, and is built in the UK. Beautiful sounding hybrid combo, which really nails the valve feel, I think it sounds a hell of a lot like a fliptop. I've replaced the preamp valves with Electro Harmonix 12AX7s. Moving it on as it's a little heavy for me (due to a shoulder injury), and as I also have an extension cab I want to move to a single speaker setup (I never seem to get to use the two together, it's really loud on it's own). So, I'm looking for £300 ono collected, or trades with amp heads. I'm based near Leicester, and work in Newark during the week. I don't mind delivering for petrol money, or meeting halfway (within reason).

guybrush threepwood Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 Cheers man! I think if it doesn't sell, I might ask someone to build a sleeve for the amp... I do love the tone - so thick sounding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
