Stu_Blues7 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Looking for a small amp with a full sound range, maybe the Ashdown After Eight 20 w or the Red Sub BP35, what's recommended? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 The Line6 LD15 amps seem to get a good recommendation on here. Not got one myself, but have heard a few people using them and they seem to be good sounding little amps. My personal fave is the Ampeg BA108, but if you want a variety of sounds/or don`t like Ampeg, this would be a bad choice, as it does Ampeg very well, but hardly anything else. Another I really like is the Fender Rumble, very deep warm bassy tones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassTractor Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Of the five amps mentioned upto now, I only know the RedSub in its Beta Aivin BP35 guise. I've been going on an on about that thing here for its flexibility and sound that seems to be from a wholly different price range. imHo, it does mwaah as well as slap, and needs little tweaking of the eq to get a different sound. I found it so endearing that it made me sell my Ashdown Mag 300W 410 combo that sounded indifferent despite a very flexible eq section with a function I love: setting the filter frequency as well as the amount. BTW, I now have a Little Bastard 30W with two 112s instead, and that thing rocks. Somewhere, I think twas on here, someone reported that a RedSub combo sounded better than its Ibanez or Beta Aivin version. May be worth a search. Good luck! best, bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_Blues7 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Cheers Bert, Thanks for the info'. Did some searching yesterday, the RedSub has some good reviews as does the Fender Rumble 30w & guess it's off on the retail hunt to hear what they're like live. I'll let you know what I end up with.
