2 years steady gigging and never a problem, nor hint of a problem with my Ashdown MAG 300c 1x15 combo.

A friend of mine has the mag 300 head, and it stopped working after he got back from a tour, but he also dropped it while loading it in the van after the last gig.

Mine is holding up fine, knock on wood!

I played yesterday with a new band in a small practice room. Took the B200R. Everyone was miked on the PA. I had a direct line to it. Overall volume was not that high...but we had an incredible sound. Everything clear....I got very good comments on the various sounds I had with both the 4003 and a P bass !! Tech 21 driver helping...The B200R did a very respectable job...The drummer especially liked the ``growly`` treble sound of the RIC...

I guess that the same set up could do it for small clubs gigs...

I've got a Yorkville XM200 and if you ask my wife, I play WAY too many gigs. We're a four set band and the Yorkie has yet to show any signs of fatigue at any gig. I've played gigs from outdoor festivals to small bars with it and it works like a champ every time. This coming week, I'll be playing the Huntington Beach Civic Center with it. It sounds great, it makes a great team with my Rics and is as reliable as gravity.
