Ashdown Cabs

[tippbass]

Hi ..... Anyone know what model these Ashdown cabs are ? .... are they just the Labs cabinets with a different covering or a specially made job for Mr King ?

Cheers

MB1.
These are the Bentley limited edition cabs.
They don't make these anymore.

Can't understand why Ashdown have omitted the "legacy" section off the
New style site,was a great source of earlier product information.

So true. I'll ask them to bring it back, and so could others do. Who knows - they might oblige.

mmm...... I'm going to head over to the bass show next week myself , I think I may just have to ask the same question at the Ashdown stand !!!

Cheers for the replys chaps ;-)

Any idea how long or how many units were made of these ? Hard to find any info on them and most of the images of them ou find are of the single 15 ...... Cool looking cabs , did they sound much different to regular ABM's ?

Aren't they the hideously ungig friendly covered cabs that would stain dead easy and rip if you breathed on them? Looked ace brand new but they are defo for the flightcase users amongst us.

Looking at it like that your probably dead right ! ...... A suede / nubuck kinda finish on a cab going into a pubs with floors covered in stale beer and the like .... Then into the back of a van !!! Definitely a job for a flight case ! I'd say seeing as they were around in 2005 and a ltd edition , good tidy one's would be fairly scarce

....... So in summary impractical !! ..... They still look cool tho :-)
