UTILIZATION

We start you see buttons everywhere, we say!
complicated!

in fact it's easy!
various useful functions!
the eq provides a diversitée of sound very very important!
a small button that when the Inrush can switch to "big prod"
a valve that adds a species of pitcher
for the manual, nothing to say on it, in fact I have not even read!

SOUNDS

This amp is really the one I needed,
I have long hesitated on the other, on the ampeg notement!
none of the vau!
I play rock, hard rock, blues, and it's perfect!
I play a musicman sterling!
I plugged the departing head when you buy a fender vieu hp all flushed but it sounds terrible already!
jai then decided to invest in a baffle of the same brand!
jai therefore decided to take the ABM BP1510TX Cabinet (http://www.ashdownmusic.co.uk/bass/detail.asp?ID=16)

and then this mass murder fu !!!!!
the sound of death,
like the sound of bassist Stevie Ray Vaughan, with a side mr big!
I love the powerful bass sound while being able to clearly distinguish the notes!
with a grain a little fat that hangs a little!
I'm still on my ass alone, repansant was the first time that I practiced with!
but companions were amazed!

OVERALL OPINION

I have put around 10, because it's a real eye opener for me!
it is a sign that I did not know at all!
I wanted to buy the ampeg, jai used to buy my stuff in a mag that is called a savigny m'zique
the guy told me, look at Ashdown, is not well known, maius for the price you want to put in ampeg, ashdown home you will be better now!
I trusted him and here the result!
of pure happiness!

I have long hesitated to leave a message because I did not want there people playing bcp
of the Ashdown
but it's really a brand that will break through and do damage!!
I think I'll walk this amp with a jazz bass Rican (planned purchase in the year)
all had to cost me € 1600 remake but I did!
