Manufacturer's Description for Ashdown Fallen Angel 40 Guitar Combo Amplifier (40 Watts, 1x12 in.)

Now Ashdown applies its expertise to developing a new range of affordable, hi-gain tube amplification, the Fallen Angel. Designed for a new breed of guitarists demanding a saturated, singing soloing voice while still retaining loads of bottom end punch, the Fallen Angel 40 features a capable clean channel with gain, treble, middle, bass and volume controls. But its Channel 2 that really rocks, offering everything from big, fat bottomed tone (perfect for muted power chords on 7-string guitars), right through to screaming, soaring lead sounds.

The Fallen Angels secret lies in some very clever tube circuit design. With most tube amps, you only get the best solo voice when the output stage is working close to flat out which often means it's too loud, so some kind of power soak is used to get this sound at lower levels. Trouble is, you then don't have the power you need on tap for massive, bass-heavy chords. That's why the solo voice character on the Fallen Angels comes from the preamp stage, so maximum grunt is always available from the power stage whenever you need it. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Ashdown products.

4 out of 5 (8 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "If your looking for great tube tone THIS IS DEFINATELY NOT THE ONE...."
Sound: Every friend who has tried this amp hates it. I gave it to a friend of mines son who is only 10 years old. It's OK for him to practice with that's it. It sounds too fuzzy, I've tried changing the tubes but still sounds horrible. BY A PEAVY DELTA BLUES AMP. Better price and great tone. Feature: Has the features just doesn't have the tone Quality: Except for the stupid meter on the front. Broke first time the amp was moved. Value: Over priced. As I said before if your looking for a good tube tone go to Peavey Manufacturer Support: Never used it. The Wow Factor: No one wanted it Hard to even give away. Overall: By far the worst tube amp I've ever played and I've played alot of them. This one just sounds horrible.
Style of Music: Classic rock/Blues
