Ashdown Fallen Angel

Anyone here ever tried one of those Ashdown?
Are they good amps?
How do they sound?

The meter sure looks cool.

Jesse, on here, bought one a while back and seems to dig it:

Yeah, saw that.

I'm wondering if anyone tried one since.
They seem to be cool amps, but no one speaks of them.

I'm also wondering about the all-tubes combos.

All I know is various bass playing friends opinions of Ashdown, or as they know them 'Crashdown'. Apparently, a general rule of thumb is that Ashdown gear will spend 50% of the time you own it in a repair shop.

Don't know how the guitar gear stands up though.

As above, a friend of mine bought a Fallen Angel combo, and he had to bring it back to the shop 3 times in the space of a month before finally he wanted his money back instead.

The concept is something i always thought was cool - take a tube amp and put all the effects and stuff on there..

Too bad it didnt work out.

Line 6 should make an all tube amp.

Yeah, they should.
Not much options out there beside the Valveking for an all-tube combo.

Recently tried the new Kustom HV (tubepre-amp, ss output).
Cool amp but it really lacks gain... Not for me
