Every dedicated bassist needs a reliable amp that delivers great tone without taking over their space. The Ashdown Studio 8 is that essential piece of gear.

This practice bass amp is designed to give you signature Ashdown tone—warm yet articulate—in a brilliantly lightweight combo package.

Whether you're rehearsing quietly at home, jamming with a friend, or need an easy-to-carry compact bass amp for small, unmic'd rehearsals, the Studio 8 cuts the weight but never the tone.

This reliable Ashdown bass amp is the simple, powerful solution for mastering your foundation.

Core Advantages: Uncompromised Tone in a Compact Format

The Studio 8 focuses on utility, quality components, and the signature sound Ashdown bassists love.

True Tone in an Ultra-Portable Bass Amp

  • Feather-Light Design: Weighing in at only 16.3 lbs. / 7.39 kg, the Studio 8 is easily the most portable bass amp in its class. Its small size makes it perfect for storage and transport.
  • Signature Ashdown Power: Delivers a reliable 30 watts of clean power through a custom 8'' Ashdown Speaker. This combination is perfectly voiced to provide clear, full bass response, ensuring your practice is always authentic and inspiring. As a dedicated Ashdown bass amp, it carries the brand's legendary tonal legacy.
  • Durable, Road-Ready Build: Constructed using super lightweight Poplar Plywood and finished with heavy-duty tolex and chrome metal corners, this compact bass amp is built to withstand regular travel and use.

Essential Practice Features

The Studio 8 has exactly what you need for focused, professional practice, making it the ideal practice bass amp.

  • Integrated Headphone Solution: Features a dedicated headphone out and a Speaker Mute Switch. This allows for completely silent practice, ensuring you can dial in your tone and work on chops late into the night without disturbing anyone.
  • Jam-Along Ready: The convenient Line Input allows you to connect a phone, laptop, or drum machine, instantly turning the Studio 8 into a powerful system for jamming along with backing tracks. This feature is crucial for bassists looking for a versatile bass amp with headphone jack.
  • Intuitive EQ: The 3-Band EQ (Bass, Middle, Treble) system is simple and responsive. Ashdown ensures that even with the EQ set flat (12 O’Clock), you get that classic, full-bodied Ashdown tone straight out of the box.
