First heard in the 427 Small Block, Ashdown’s Dual Tube bass preamp was an instant hit, thanks to its solid, articulate bottom end and sparkling highs. The 550W Ashdown 550 Touring 210H takes this stunning tube preamp design and partners it with a tour proven ABM power stage, delivering the payload via 2 x custom 10” drivers with an HF horn for extended top end response.

The discerning bass player gets high and low gain inputs, front panel-mounted FX send and return, rotary bass, middle and treble controls with mid shift, bass shift and bright switching, mute switch, rotary gain and master volume controls and a DI output.

The stunning chrome amp panel combines with retro cabinet styling, featuring vinyl covering, chrome protective corners, vintage red grille cloth and, of course, the trademark illuminated Ashdown VU meter.
