Going back to basics with the Studio 8 30W 1x8" bass combo, Ashdown's designers leaned upon their tried and tested EQ sections by way of the 5-band EQ featured across the Rootmaster and OriginAL ranges. This EQ opens up everything you need to establish a great tone straight out of the box. With everything at 12 O’clock, the Ashdown Studio Range sounds as you would expect from a bass guitar warm yet articulate.

The result consists of four beautiful combos, Studio 15, Studio 12, Studio 10 and Studio 8 all named in relation to the size of speaker fitted. The all-new designs feature a new light-weight design using responsibly sourced poplar-ply wood, providing a light but strong structure for the updated combo enclosures.

The combos also feature a headphone output for silent practice essential for this day and age in which listening habits are changing.
