Ashdown Touring 220 combo with valve pre-amp and solid state power amp £250 Lovely Wellingborough

[Osiris]

This is an excellent condition Ashdown Touring 220 combo. It's a 1x15 setup featuring a twin valve pre-amp with a 180 watt old school power section, people more clued up than me can clarify whether it's solid state, class AB or whatever. It's definitely not a class D light weight unit! It has a 3 band passive tone stack with switchable bass and mid frequencies plus a bright switch. Tonally it's big and warm but isn't designed for full on valve distortion. 

 

It's in excellent condition with one superficial scratch in the tolex on one side and a couple of pulls in the grill cloth. It's lived in the bands private rehearsal room where it has never been abused. 

 

I have no real idea of the value of this so I'm asking what I think to be a reasonable £250 collected from the Wellingborough area. It's not exactly light weight so unfortunately I am unable to drag it out for posting. Potential buyers are welcome to try it out and the kettle will be on.

About 10 years ago I bought one of these, stuck some castors on the bastard and have toured it all over the UK and Europe ever since. Incredible setup! Don't sleep on this. GLWTS
