Class A Peacemaker Combos from Ashdown
 January 17, 2002
The new all-tube, auto-biasing Peacemaker 20, 40 and 60 each feature Clean and Lead/Overdrive channels, with a footswitchable gain boost on Channel 2. Channels can be selected from the front panel or a footswitch and, in addition, the 40 and 60-watt models have footswitchable dual master volumes.
Each of the Peacemaker combos is equipped with an effects loop and an internal spring reverb with independent channel level and master level controls.
The choice of loudspeakers includes a single 10" Celestion V10 in the Peacemaker 20, a single 12" Celestion Vintage 30 in the Peacemaker 40 and a pair of Vintage 30s in the Peacemaker 60. All three combos have a dedicated 16 Ohm extension speaker output to which the Peacemaker 40 and 60 add an impedance selector switch.
The tone is classic British Class A on the Peacemakers' clean channel, breaking up into crunch on Channel 2. Build quality is exceptionally high with high-grade cabinet coverings and grille cloth, metal corners, spring handles and, of course, the classic Ashdown Engineering illuminated VU meter.
The Peacemaker 60 is also available as an amplifier head along with flat and angle fronted 4x12" cabinets.
