Hans Grimm recently upgraded his bass rig, and here's what he had to say:

"Last month I treated myself to a new rig! In fact, I pensioned off my JBL resonator bass bin and got an Ashdown ABM410T 4x10” cabinet, together with an Ashdown MAG300H amp head. I had the feeling that two 15” speakers (one of them more than 25 years old) were not doing my 12ver the justice it deserved. I was so right!"

"Since I got the Ashdown stuff, the 12 strings sing at me, and I can almost hear every separate string. Also, the low end of the cabinet is amazing for such a compact cab. Not only does it have those British good looks (buffalo leather, Aston Martin-like logo, black metal grille), but it sounds far better than anything I’ve tried in years!"

"The Hughes & Kettner is still there supplying that 15” German growl, so together they sound like the Battle of Britain all over again. ;)"

"A total of 500 watts gives me plenty of overkill..."
