badboy1984 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 There is something about Ashdown that I liked. I still got my perfect 10 mini bass stack lol. Currently using a Ashdown LB30 as my main amp for gig. Don't have the money for a ashdown cab to go along with that yet lol. Quote

[/quote] There's obviously a niche in the market... what about filling the cab with helium? Come on, I have all these great ideas - it's up to the engineers to make them work! Quote

That's what happened to me when I got filled with hellium... Quote

Marvin Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Usual rules apply, pictures (preferably video footage if at all possible) or it just didn't happen. And if there's any helium or nitrous oxide left over, you know, share it out... Quote

Mornats Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) I got myself a MarkBass CMD 121P for small gigs (which is all I do). But my Ashdown Touring 220 2x12 rig is still sitting there. I just can't bring myself to sell it. It's just gloriously warm and vintagey and looks great. Can't for the life of me figure out the passive EQ - can't even find a "flat" tone but crank up that input gain, let the tubes heat up and enjoy. I think my VU meter is bust though, it doesn't move Edited March 15, 2015 by Mornats Quote
