Ashdown Superfly Bass Amp Customer Review
Feature:
Very interesting feature set. Need to use 4 ohm cabinets - a pair if possible - to get top volume levels.
Quality:
Very nicely made. Some owners report hum or high-pitched whine. Hum is within acceptable levels. I do hear a whine occasionally but it goes away.
Value:
It's worth the money if you get a good unit. A steal at $279.
Sound:
Strong sound, near boutique quality, maybe a little thicker.
Ease of Use:
Simple to use.
Overall:
Very ambitious amp. Hope the matching cabs come in soon. Higher power units due too.

"Great sound...when it works"

Brand new out of the box...played it for about an hour...smelled that electrical smell...it went dead. next day it worked again...for an hour and went dead again.
Sound:
Decent sounds...several good factory presets.
Ease of Use:
Very easy to use...either factory presets, or storing your own sounds.
Support:
Ashdown was very responsive to my amp problems.
Overall:
I'd pay 200 to 250 for this thing if it was reliable.
