Reviews for Ashdown MK500 Mark King Signature Bass Amplifier Head

Feature:
It's actually quite the Spartan head, with not a whole lot of bells and whistles compared some brands (think: Trace). That said, the simplicity is what makes this thing really great: plug in, great tone, play.

Value:
Well, if you doing the quality divided by $$$ divided by tone factor, this thing is a great deal. Cool boutique AshdownLabs head, for about the same price as a bunch of other mid-level bass heads. If you can get one blem, like I did on this site, you're really doing okay.

Desirability:
Absolutely the coolest thing going in my rack. Red face, blue lights, graphic, and Level42 accoutrements...I get comments ALL the time. It helps that this head will likely be more popular in the UK where Mark King is more well-known. Here in the US it's a really unique piece of equipment.

Sound:
Phenomenal sound: very pure and, as the man himself says, "organic." 12-band graphic eq is very sensitive and tweakable, but leaving this flat still gets you a great tone with the right bass. Harmonic emphasis is possibly the coolest bass effect I've seen in a long time...much more usable than subharmonic generators.

Ease of Use:
See above. Very easy to use.

Support:
I'll give Ashdown a 9...I had a question about a bass cabinet to pair with this head, and they got back to me, from the UK, the next business day and kept corresponding with me until I had the answer I needed.
