I’ve been on the hunt for a smaller rig since I only practice at home now and the 410 and 575w ABM is too much. I love Ashdown and really wanted to stick with it, but I feel a lot of their newer stuff is all China made. An amp shop in North Hollywood that had some UK stuff in stock went cold in responding to me so I decided to just wait it out. This week, I randomly got on guitar center to look for any used Ashdown and was surprised to find this combo for a good price. And when I clicked on it, it’s said it was at my local store !?!. It even had the foot switch. When I went to get it, the foot switch was not there and they said it was a return and could take money off, but the manager was not there. I decided to put it on layaway and come back to ask for a discount. I was expecting $20 or something, but the manager took off the new value of the pedal. Very nice guy. I came out with it for $309. Pretty good deal for a UK made with some Italian SICA speakers.

Now I will either store or sell my other rig.

Is this amp sealed or ported, do you know?
