Anyone used one of these yet?

Post by big_g »

I just ordered an Ashdown Electric Blue 210 150 combo from Music123 in an Ebay auction and it is coming via FedEx to the house as I write.

The Ashdown folks are discontinuing this particular model, they're keeping the Electric Blue 12" and 15" and they are re-labeling it as a 180 watt. It's going to replace my old Ampeg B100R, which is starting to develop problems from 5 years of hard practices and smaller gigs.

Just wondering if anyone had used the Electric Blue series and had any feedback to offer on the sound and durability of these amps.

I have one... but mine is the model with the single 15" speaker. I've had it for over a year, now. I have only one bass and don't play a LOT (I spend more time playing guitars). That said, I remain quite impressed with the tone and have not had any "reliability" issues.

I have a new Ashdown 300 and think it's very good.
Only gigged the once with it - but playing in Edinburgh on Thursday , so I'll stretch it's legs again then.
