SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Overall: I am a converted guitarist... crossed over to the thump-side :) I've owned many guitar amps but this is the first big-league bass amp that I have owned. I tried a number of amps before making this purchase, but fell in love with the 1) sound and 2) looks of the Ashdown. I am thinking of adding the 115 deep cabinet to this. With the extra cab all the wattage of the head is used. With a single cabinet underneath I think it pumps 185 watts. By adding a second you get the full 307 of the mag 300 head. The sound I get using my Washburn Force 4 is awesome. I get compliments on the Washburn's beautiful bubinga body and the Ashdown's look with its 4 blue speakers and cool vu meter. I've had the amp for 8 months and I still love it. If it were stolen I would definitely rebuy the same amp. You'll be happy with this choice. I've put wheels on mine, which makes it much easier to get along with :) The wheel is a wonderful invention!

Sound: This amp combo has a wide range of sounds. Sounds much better than the Hartke 410 with GK RB400 combo I used to own. Tubey sounding especially when using the low subharmonics feature which is dialable. The range of sounds fits well with my playing. I play anything from contemporary rock, classic rock, and funk. Good low tight or deep low E. My open low B is another story and I don't know if this is a property of the bass or the amp. Good slap tones that are biting but warm. I play a 5 string and a Kawai graphite neck Koa body bass. Both have actives so I do not know the true sound of the amp with passives. Feature: Haven't tested all the features yet so I have to give an incomplete grade. There is no headphone out. I don't know if a footswitch is available to enable or diasable any of the amp features. The manual is unclear on this as. Nice retro looking VU meter in front for gauging input levels. I tend to use my ear when it comes to this. Line out to hook up tuner is a nice feature if you do not own a stomp box with a built in tuner. The plastic frequency pots are non-clicking and on the loose side and will trun during normal transportation. Perhaps clicking pots will fare better. The sound shaping features are more than adequate and not overly fine as in the Hartke graphic eq style layout Quality: To make it road worthy, I installed casters on the bottom for rollability. The quality control seems great especially for something made in China. No need for a backup. The plastic knobs for the eq are plastic but it does the job. Value: Can't ask for better and more powerful combo at $600. Manufacturer Support: No experience with product support although the manual is something to be desired. The Wow Factor: Great distinctive retro look. Lit VU meter and blue speakers with metallic looking grill cloth is quite attractive. Overall: Don't see myself upgrading unless I go completely tube and in a different price range.

Sound: Sound's great. I let a buddy use it in a gig and the VU meter wasn't even going 1/3 of the way up! Feature: The only problem I had with it was one of the EQ buttons fell off the first time I played it. But I emailed Ashdown and they said they would sent a replacement. Quality: No problems with it so far.. It had a little tippings accident in the car but the metal grill saved the speakers. Value: Great. Great price and great look.. I get many compliments on it. Manufacturer Support: Ashdown is great. I called them before I got it to ask them questions and what not and they were extremely friendly and very easy to reach! The Wow Factor: I love the front panel and the speakers. The only thing I would change would be the carpet on it.. Maybe red or blue... Overall: The only thing I'm gonna change with this amp is probably getting the MAG115 Cab for it and getting a different colored carpet for it.

Sound: What can I say, I did a blind leap of faith with this amp in a time crunch but did my research. The sound quality is very tight, not overly boomy and muddy.I tend to play with a brighter crisper sound and this setup delivers. Playing with the EQ I was able to get anything from a great bright slap sound to a deep, mellow sound. Keeps it's tight sound at higher levels as well. I haven't hooked up a 15" extension cab yet, but if your looking for shake your chest lows, your gonna need it. Hit the subharmonic button (essentially an octave lower note is played with your note) you will probably be shaking pictures off the walls. The lows are surprisingly good coming from 10" speakers. I don't have a high dollar bass, but this amp fools a lot of people into thinking I do. Feature: DI is a huge plus if needed at a gig, and I love the push button treble and bass boost so during an effect or solo you can pop it on real quick, optional pedal for these as well if I read the manual right. Only thing I wish it had was a mute button for the speakers, so I don't have to power up and down the amp during jam breaks. The VU meter is just the right touch of vintage that I like. Would have been a nice boost to see indicator lights on the push button controls so you can tell at a glance when they are engaged. Ease of Use: Plug it in, dial up your eq, and bam your done. Nothing to technical about this amp. I had found my tone in about 20 minutes. Quality: I bought B stock of this item and have yet to see or hear ANYTHING that would give that away. It's very solid and the grate is nice and thick. The knobs feel like butter. The only issue is the push button controls. They feel a bit weird, it's not a satisfying click when you engage, kinda mushy. Value: For the b stock price I payed, I feel like I stole this amp. An incredible value. If I had payed full price, I would have liked to have seen better push button controls and indicator lights, but the sound quality makes up for these. Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to deal with them yet. The Wow Factor: This thing looks slick. It has just enough vintage touch to it with the VU meter and even the name badge on it. The blue speakers just sets it apart from everything else, it's not overdone like what the pics might show. Overall: The sound quality is great and I haven't heard anything close to it at this price range. I would rebuy this amp in a heartbeat. Ashdown has my support.

SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
Sound: I'm a studio owner and professional record producer and mix engineer. My lil brother was getting into Bass so I helped him shop around for this, We chose it out of all of the "budget" "Big" amps in the store. Sound is very versitile and you can get Many tones and colors with Just the amp and no pedals. The speakers themselves don't seem to give As much deep bass as some more expensive 10 inchers I've heard, And my Bass players 15inch Trace elliot...So I can't give it a 10, but Based on Its size and options, It thumps just fine. The drive doesn't go nuts Which I think is a good thing. It's a great sounding saturation, and it doesn't sound cheap and fuzzy. It just thickens the tone up with some grit. I Liked the drive a lot. Works for getting a little compression effect on a cleaner sound and works for the top end grit that sounds good on bass. Again this is taking into consideration it's price point. Feature: Octaver is genius. If I was a bass player I'd use it for sure. But...use it sparingly! All the I/O one would need. The only think I think they missed is a channel switch of some kind, and Noise suppression...But other then that It's got it all. I don't mind not having a compressor if the Drive is responsive like on this amp. Ease of Use: Easy to use, Once you get it to where you want it! It's bloody heavy, and Also a lot bigger in the back of the Van then you expect it to be when It's in the store. If It was mine I would Screw some Coaster wheels on it. The EQ and tone controls are responsive and easy. Quality: It looks great and Feels Very solid. My band played a couple times at a place with a Beringer 4x10 Combo, Probably the closest competitor with this guy. I haven't heard them side by side, But I was tweaking the bass amp for 10 minutes trying to get it do sound good and It sounded OK in the end, But I remember the Nice character the Ashdown had and Beringer didn't have the same dirt in the Drive. It's lighter though, which might be nice but can indicate poor construction. It sort of feels like its trying too hard whereas this Ashdown felt more natural....tone wise. Very solid and heavy, Its metal and Wood. Value: Great for a serious bass player. you DO NOT want something this big or heavy unless you're serious. It's cheap for a big amp but sounds nice and warm and has a character. Theres Better If you spend more, But I think unless you are making A living off your bass playing this would be great. Pedals in the line up should really give you the tones you need. Manufacturer Support: Don't know. The Wow Factor: I REALLY like it. I like My bass player's 15 inch tube Trace Elliot more, But...Thats fairly high-end. This amp didn't feel, look, or sound cheap. It didn't really sound like a tube amp...It sounds solidstate- but again I'll say the tone you get do have a warm "real" character to them.
