    I love how chunky the gain on this amp, and not fizzy for me at all.

    I got a Ashdown guitar amp from PMT back in 2007 and it’s still going strong. It was the FA60 head and FA412A cab.
    This new head sounds great but the lack of FX loop is a big negative. I’d rather not have the XLR DI and not have the headphone out just to have an FX loop.

    Not trying to be difficult here, but I would love to hear these mini-heads through different cabs as I am currently thinking of finding a nice 2x10 cab (or 1x10) and buying various minis.

    still use my Ashdown mini stack i bought in the 90's, Ashdown amps are way underrated unless your a bass player i guess

    Had a Hayden 'lil Mofo 2W head some years back, that sounded pretty good as well through a Harley Benton 1 x 12 with a Vintage 30.
    Nice 👍

    Ya know what? I'll keep my Crate VC-2110 (1994) 2x 12ax7 & 2x el84. Beside tube changes all original. I'll bet I got less than 350.00 in an American made Obeid Khan design. Ironically it replaced one of his Ampeg Jet-20's which are KILLER stage amps! Sounded pretty good tho' Dagan!

    Did I detect a few seconds of LA Guns No Mercy in there? Bravo

      Dagan plays LA Guns in his sleep, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he snuck some Tracii Guns riffs in! 🔥

    25th anniversary of a brand that made their mark with bass amps. Many favorable reviews of their early guitar amps.
