mikegatward Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Does anyone run this combination ? i fancy trying a valve head but notice the Ashdown is 24” wide so wonder how stable it is on a 19” wide cab like my BF Super Twin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomed Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Here's my Matamp on top my Dubster, I'm not sure if the Dubster was a little wider than the 2x12 cabs or the same dimensions, anyway the Matamp is 24"ish wide and just about sits there safely, depends on the position of the amp's feet really. I usually use the Matamp with a Four10 but it will sit on the Dubster, it's not like it's going anywhere once it's in position. EDIT - Just looked up dimensions, Dubster is 21" wide rather than 19" so you're going to have a bit more overhang either side than me. You may have to move the amp's feet or add more inside the ones fitted. OR.... get another Supertwin and run the Ashdown at 2 ohms 😁 Edited March 11, 2020 by doomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbasspecial Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I agree. I didn't want to assume you were rich or not. However, for some of our fellow BC'ers money doesn't appear to be an issue with their Foderas and other expensive bits of kit, which I suspect half of them probably can't play very well but have the money to convince others that they can. Miaow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miaow. Haha - my gear is a higher standard than playing but I figure my band would sack me if I wasn’t at least reasonable. Moreover, I’ve now lived in Yorkshire so long the the expression “How Much ?!” figures high in the GAS considerations. But seriously, am now considering a CTM30 or the little stubby as I reckon the BF cab is so sensitive it will be loud enough for our pub gigs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need to have PA support as well for the whole room/balance but the onstage volume and tone is wonderful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbasspecial Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 There's an Ampeg PF50t for sale. That'll do for most gigs. £400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
