Description

The Ashdown SO-1200 is a groundbreaking bass amplifier created in collaboration with Shavo Odadjian, legendary bassist of System of a Down. Hand-crafted in the UK, this powerhouse delivery 1200 watts of pure bass tone designed to captivate audiences from massive arenas to intimate studios. The SO-1200 features a 9-band EQ for precise tone shaping, a Variable Valve Drive powered by a 12AX7 tube for everything from clean tones to aggressive overdrive, and advanced tools like a one-knob compressor for dynamic control and a sub-harmonic generator for thunderous low-end depth.

Dual 600-watt power sections allow for versatile speaker pairing, while professional connectivity includes dual Speakons, a DI output, and an FX loop. The SO-1200 is more than an amplifier, it's a testament to Ashdown's dedication to craftsmanship and Shavo Odadjian's relentless pursuit of tonal excellence.

As a long-time member of the Ashdown family, Shavo's partnership with Ashdown represents a shared passion for pushing the boundaries of bass amplification.
