The Dark Lord Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) Should I read anything into the fact that Jean Jacques is no longer listed on the Ashdown website as one of their artists and his amp in no longer listed among their products? [color=#ff0000]NB: Turned out to be a false alarm. See later in thread.[/color] Edited March 21, 2013 by The Dark Lord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartelby Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Wait for someone to see them on tour in the next few weeks and see what he's using... I love my JJ-500, best amp I've used in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Lord Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) I saw them on Friday at The Roundhouse ..... and he was using the usual 2 x 4x10 and 2 x 1x15 Ashdown cabs. You can't see his amp as he usually puts just his tuner on the top nowadays. Wonder why he's not on the site? I went there to have a peek as I thought I might get myself one of his amps, so wanted to look at the spec again. Not there any more.

[/quote] Hmmmm, I know he's quite fussy about endorsement deals (like making sure the JJ-500 is affordable and such). Maybe he dropped them. (as an aside: I saw the Stranglers last year. Stood infront of me was a dad and his teenager lad. They talked all the way through the support, The Popes, about their (dad and lad's) amps and guitars and such. Then when the Stranglers were on they spent 20 mins trying to figure out what the box with the moving lights, on the top of JJ's cabs, was...) what do you need to know spec wise?

Marvin Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 There seem to be a lot of Artists missing from the Ashdown site. It may be something to do with the website make over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Lord Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) Emailed Ashdown and got the following straight from the horse's mouth (email from Mark Gooday) yes he is just our web is new :-) and we have not loaded our artists all up again. So no worries there then. Edited March 19, 2013 by The Dark Lord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
