NEW FOR 2024: ASHDOWN WOODSMAN ACOUSTIC COMBOS
The NEW Woodsman Acoustic Range builds on a long legacy of acoustic amp design to deliver class-leading standards of vocal and instrument performance.
Designed for acoustic performers, Ashdown Engineering announce the Woodsman family of amplifiers, combining traditional, beautiful wooden cabinets with powerful modern features for live performance and recording.
With inputs for microphones and acoustic guitar, Woodsman amps are ideal for duos, or solo singer/guitar players, delivering pure clear, acoustic tone and essential performance tuning features, including feedback eliminating notch filters.
Two compact models are available - 25W Parlour, 40W Classic. Each model features a custom-designed 8” driver. The Classic and Parlour model also feature a horn for increased full-range sound.
At the heart of the OriginAL EVO is a 5-band EQ, providing precise control over bass, middle, and treble frequencies, alongside dedicated hi-mid and lo-mid knobs for fine-tuning. The Shape control adds an extra layer of tonal versatility, allowing bassists to sculpt their sound to perfection.
Portability is key with the OriginAL EVO, weighing in at just under 1.8kg, making it the perfect companion for both live gigs and practice sessions. This powerful amp head is poised to elevate your bass playing to new heights.
Modern conveniences are at your fingertips with a front-facing effects loop and XLR DI output, ensuring your sound remains pristine and easy to manage. The rear panel offers additional flexibility with a headphone output for silent practice and multiple speaker outputs for diverse rig configurations.
