bigd1 Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 HEAD Carlsbro Bass Reactor 400 head (4ohm) in like new condition, great sounding head, I've used it for rock & acoustic type music makes a good job of all. 9 band graphic eq with on off switch & level control, deep switch, mid shift & mute buttons. Outputs speakon, tunner, aux send & return, DI (balanced) speaker lead included. CAB 1x15+tweeter this is a ABM cab loaded with a Celestion Neo speaker, all work was done by pro (not a DIY project) speakon in/out sockets only on cab, fitted with casters. Cab is not to heavy due to the Neo driver that has been fitted. Both head and cab are in like new condition, not been giged very much and have been very well looked after. Looking for £275 ovno the lot, pick up only. May be able to deliver depending on distance for "go go" money. I am based between Manchester & Leeds.

The cab IS a genuine Ashdown ABM 15 with a Celestion Neo fitted. I originally got this from the company that make Ashdown Cabs, (and Trace, Orange, HiWatt, Cornford etc.etc.), as it was left over from an order when Ashdown changed the design of the handles. It was put together by the same team and has a compression horn added. Check the price of the speaker on it's own and you will see what a deal this is. Serious trouser flapping bass from this set-up.
bigd1 Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 Thanks guys for the words on sale, no takers as yet for this great rig at a really good price. BIGd
bigd1 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Posted October 15, 2008 lots of lookers but no one seems to be offering any money, come guys great rig at a really low price. Get um while it's hot !! :ph34r:
BigBeefChief Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 This is a great deal. Perhaps it suffers because its not particularly fashionable? I love Carlsbro gear. These heads are really under rated by all accounts.

This whole rig is absolutely awesome, particularly for the money. Shed loads of trouser flapping, bass. The neo driver in the cab give it loads of mid as well. Just check the pice of an Ashdown ABM115 Neo and you realise what a bargain it is.
bigd1 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Posted October 15, 2008 And Ashdowns are sh*te I know I've had 2 of then fooookin naff, this does need to go to a good home where it will get used. It's just taking up room at the mo. As has been said by lots of B/chaters (Ta for that) awesome rig, great sound, good power, cheap price and I may even deliver what more could you want. Bag a bargain, you know you want to.
ZMech Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 when you say 'not too heavy', how heavy are we talking? I'm currently living on the 4th floor at my halls of residence, and there's no lift, so weight is most definitely an issue. I'm also far too tempted by this and want a reason to stop myself from getting it...
bigd1 Posted October 18, 2008 Author Posted October 18, 2008 I know this is a bit pathetic but I can't come up with a way to weigh this cab. Only thing I can say is, as it has a Neo speaker fitted it is much lighter than other 15" cabs I have owned. You can carry it on your own although due to its size this is not the easiest of things over a long distance. The cab has a set of casters fitted for this purpose. Hope this is of some help. BIGd

It really is very tempting, but the fact that it's about 2 miles to nearby venues, coupled with the fact that i live on a 3rd floor without a lift, means unfortunately I shall pass on this. Good luck though, someone's going to get a fantastic deal with this i'm sure.

ben_eat_pie Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 could I get a price on the head only? I've got an ashdown and I'm struggling to get the sound... I'm sure you understand! ben

bigd1 Posted November 10, 2008 Author Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) I feel I'm offering a great rig for a very cheap price. I can't believe no body wants this. Come on guys your missing a real bargain. I have seen Ashdown & Hartke stuff selling no problem, these really are not a patch on the sound and power of this set-up. Get um whilst it's hot, beat the credit crunch, bag a bargain, give me some room in my hall way. Edited November 10, 2008 by bigd1
bigd1 Posted November 13, 2008 Author Posted November 13, 2008 Lots of people saying they would love to buy this but no funds, sign of the times. BIGd
