Lightweight, practical and equipped for rehearsal, recording and live use, the Ashdown Studio 210 bass combo amp delivers 300W RMS into 8 ohms through two 10" Ashdown NEO drivers and an HF tweeter. The 2x10 configuration is complemented by a 5-band EQ, switchable Shape control and tube-emulated Drive for flexible tone shaping. A balanced XLR DI, TRS effects loop, headphone output, line input, rear-panel tweeter mute, speaker mute and 8-ohm extension speaker output provide extensive connectivity for practice, rehearsal, recording and live bass rigs.
2x10" Ashdown NEO Speaker System
The Studio 210 uses two 10" Ashdown NEO drivers with an HF tweeter in a lightweight combo format. A rear-panel tweeter mute switch lets players disable the high-frequency driver for a different cabinet response, while a dedicated speaker mute provides another option for silent use. An 8-ohm extension speaker output supports connection to a compatible external cabinet for expanding the speaker configuration.
5-Band EQ and Tube-Emulated Drive
A switchable Shape control provides an immediate pre-shaped voicing before the manual EQ section, while Pre-Gain adjusts the input level to accommodate different instruments. The 5-band EQ provides dedicated Bass, Lo-Mid, Middle, Hi-Mid and Treble controls with ±15dB adjustment for detailed tone shaping. Ashdown’s tube-emulated Drive adds adjustable overdrive, with a footswitch jack available for remote switching using an optional FS-1 single latching footswitch.
Studio, Stage and Silent-Practice Connectivity
A balanced XLR DI output provides direct connection to external audio equipment, while the TRS effects loop supports integration of pedals and processors with a compatible Y/insertion cable. The line input accommodates an external audio source for play-along practice, and the 1/4" headphone output automatically mutes the speakers for silent sessions. Built with responsibly sourced poplar ply and weighing 24.6 lb., the Studio 210 combines a 300W 2x10" speaker platform with flexible tone shaping and routing in a lightweight enclosure.
