Sam Ash carrying Phil Jones amps?
gweimer:
My local Sam Ash now has the small Phil Jones amps in stock. I decided to give the Suitcase a spin at lunch today. First, I tried a used Allen Woody Epiphone bass. Didn't care for it, but this bass was pretty bad. It looked nice, but the bridge was sitting higher off the body than an entrance ramp on an Indiana freeway.
Next, I tried a Sting sig bass. I gotta say, it was pretty sweet. Even only 1/3 of the way up, the amp sounded just great all the way up the neck. Nice, distinct notes.
Let's see...I can get rid of one of the Ashdowns....

I'll have to check one out next time I go to the San Antonio Sam Ash. Now if they would only set up at least a few of their basses...
SKATE RAT:
are those the ones with lots of little speakers?
gweimer:
Them's the ones. I tell you - I've heard about them, and read about the science behind the 5" drivers. Having just dinked around for 5 minutes, I can say that it's no lie. Nice full tone - no farty 10" sound on these little babies.
Now I have to start saving up for the M-500 head and a Pirhana 9B bottom with a 6T on top.

One of the Ashdowns? How many Ashdowns does one need?
