Classic Style, Modern Performance

The Woodsman Classic combines Ashdown's traditional wooden cabinet design with modern engineering to deliver 40 watts of warm, articulate acoustic sound. Compact and stylish, it's perfect for solo performers and duos looking for rich tone and reliable amplification, whether on stage or in the studio.

Expanded Control for Acoustic Players

Building on the Parlour model, the Classic adds even greater versatility: a Mic Channel with ton control, Active/Passive inputs for guitar, a phase reversal switch, and a notch filter to eliminate unwanted feedback. With these performance-focused tools, the Woodsman Classic ensures your sound stays clear, balanced, and feedback-free in any environment.

Stage Ready and Recording Friendly

At just 8.5kg, the Classic is portable yet powerful, equipped with a full-range 8" speaker for natural acoustic projection. An XLR DI output makes it easy to connect directly to a PA or recording interface, while the line in/out and effects send/return provide flexibility for rehearsal and performance setups. Stylish, rugged, and versatile, the Woodsman Classic is built to bring clarity and confidence to every performance.
