Default Ashdown Radiator Acoustic amp

hi all.
I purchased another great amp . the Ashdown Raidiator Acoustic 1 .

Got it for an absolute bargin under £250. its a bit heaver and taller then a AER . for the price its an outstanding amp plus its so easy to tweak the sound you want. The reverb is really nice and this amp has loads of headroom and very good bottom end plus a really sweet top end.
My guitar sounds full and rich plus it has some excellent features a notch switch which you can dail out feedback. It has a DI out and you can use seperate effects if you want.
What i love is that it has phantom power and tongiht i was using it with my AKG C 535 condenser mic.

I can't believe these amps are now discontinued.

I would rate it up there with the best of them the fishmans the AER's .
I am well impressed.

Who else on this forum has this model?

Dave

Yup! I have a Radiator - great little amp! If the venue is too big for it I use it as a monitor.

Hi Chewie

i am glad i found another owner of this beauty.
Today i tried it with my Hall of Fame Reverb pedal through the return and sends inputs in the back .

it sounded awesome and gave the sound a bit more sparkle.
