An All-In-One Ashdown Solution

The Ashdown UK-OBM-C112T-500 is a self-contained bass combo designed for players who value clarity, reliability, and ease of use. Hand-built in the UK and finished in bold Ice Blue, it delivers a commanding 500 watts of output while integrating amp and speaker into one cohesive, ultra-compact format - removing the need for separate heads and cabinets without compromising performance.

Focused Projection with Stage-Ready Design

Central to the combo is a high-quality Sica 12" speaker, selected for its punchy response, tonal balance, and ability to comfortably handle the full power of the amplifier. The kickback cabinet design allows the combo to be angled upward, improving on-stage audibility and giving bassists a more immediate, controlled sense of their sound in rehearsals, live settings, and recording environments.

Clear Controls, Musical Results

The control layout centres around a responsive 5-band EQ, offering detailed adjustment across the frequency range while remaining intuitive and fast to use. The classic Shape function provides an instant tonal contour, enhancing low-end weight and high-frequency clarity for a polished, mix-ready sound at the touch of a button.

Flexible Integration for Modern Rigs

An onboard FX Loop allows external effects to be incorporated cleanly into the signal path, ensuring the combo adapts easily to pedal-based setups. The OBM series' straightforward layout keeps operation simple and reliable, making the UK-OBM-C112T-500 equally suited to plug-and-play users and more involved signal chains.

Portable, Durable, and Purpose-Built

Finished in Charcoal Tweed with Silver Weave grille cloth, the UK-OBM-C112T-500 blends classic Ashdown styling with modern practicality. Lightweight construction ensures easy transport, while robust materials provide the durability needed for regular use. Compact yet powerful, it delivers classic Ashdown tone, modern convenience, and dependable performance in one beautifully engineered combo.
