Ashdown have always been committed to great practice amps, but with AAA theyve taken the concept to a whole new level. AAA are a new generation of Ashdown amps that will take todays players from the bedroom to the stage, with great tone and powerful features like their AppTek connection for integration with the latest smartphone and tablet-based amp sims and effects.
Meet the TwinTen
For bass players who need a solid yet lightweight, affordable amp for practice, rehearsals and gigging, the Twin Ten delivers big on features and tone, drawing inspiration from their flagship ABM amps and adding a few surprises. With a 220W power section driving two 10" Ashdown speakers, the Twin Ten doesnt pull its punches and delivers a rich bass tone that can be adapted to any genre. The Twin Ten is constructed from premium 12mm Ply resulting in a weight of only 17kg.
Classic Ashdown tone
AAA amps are voiced with the soul of legendary Ashdown tone, as heard on countless recordings and in packed venues every night. High and Low Impedance inputs means theyre ready for active or passive basses and power EQ is designed to get the most out every instrument. Ashdown tube emulated drive control lets you take your core tone from warm and clean through to fat musical distortion at the turn of a knob.
App-Tek - a world of tone at your fingertips
Via the App-Tek socket players can access the ever-growing range of amp sim and effects apps available on Smartphones and devices, unlocking a huge expanding range of sounds. Plugging your bass in to the amp and making a simple connection to your device via the supplied App-Tek cable is all youll need to do to get started. Choose from effects apps to recording apps and even their very own ABM Pre App.
Bring ABM muscle direct to your AAA
Connect your device via App-Tek (using the supplied 4 pole mini jack cable) and use the ABM Pre App available on Agile Partners Amp Kit and youve got legendary ABM tone and flexibility dialed straight into your Twin Ten and ready to record or send straight to the PA. Enjoy Sub Harmonic Tube Drive, professional Compression and the ABM 7-Band EQ and transform this combo into a fully-loaded pro rig.
Comprehensive Connections
Just because an amp is affordable doesnt mean you have to compromise of connectivity. AAA amps feature Line In for connecting an mp3 player, headphone connection (with speaker mute switch) for silent practice and a great sounding DI for recording or sending your tone direct to a mixer. The Twin Ten also features a transparent effects loop for use with your favorite pedals or multi effects and extension speaker out.
Built for the journey
Tough cabinets, quality coverings, metal corners and quality components - because they know the journey from the bedroom to the club can be a tough one and you need gear that wont let you down.
