Ashdown Launches UK-Built Cabinets and Amps

The new amps include the UK-ABM-300-EVO IV and UK-ABM-600-EVO IV. The cabinets include five newly re-engineered cabinets blending iconic ABM tone with state-of-the-art materials and superior construction, crafted entirely in the UK. The five models include the UK-ABM-810H-EVO IV, UK-ABM-410H-EVO IV, UK-ABM-210H-EVO IV, UK-ABM-115H-EVO IV and UK-ABM-112H-EVO IV.

Here are details on the two new amps. Delivering 300 watts of pure bass power, the UK-ABM-300-EVO IV combines heritage tone with modern control. Its class-leading preamp features the Variable Valve Drive Plus, giving players access to a broad tonal spectrum, from warm cleans to gritty overdrive, all foot-switchable for performance versatility. A brand-new 9-band EQ offers pinpoint tonal shaping, while the One Knob Compressor and Sub-Harmonic Generator ensure your bass remains rich, tight, and stage-ready. Professional connectivity, including FX loop, Line Input, and tuner out, make it a complete solution for live and studio applications.

For players demanding more headroom and authority, the Uk-ABM-600-EVO IV offers 600 watts of commanding power while retaining the full feature set of its 300W sibling. The enhanced 9-band EQ, signature VU meter, and foot-switchable controls for Valve Drive, Compression, EQ, and Sub-Harmonics allow seamless integration into any performance setup. Built for the modern bassist yet faithful to its roots, the UK-ABM-600-EVO IV represents the pinnacle of Ashdown’s amplifier design.
