Korg USA has taken on exclusive distribution for Ashdown Engineering in the U.S. and Canada. Korg USA will distribute Ashdown’s bass amplification and effects products, acoustic amplification products, and the Dr. Green brand of guitar and bass effects pedals.

With global headquarters, engineering and a custom shop based in the U.K., Ashdown has developed a range of products that satisfy the tonal demands of a diverse array of bass players. In addition to the ABM range, Ashdown also offers bass amps for all situations and budgets, from 10-watt practice amps to 400-watt, all-valve rigs that are hand-crafted in the UK. The full line of Ashdown products will be on display at the Winter NAMM 2014 trade show.

Korg USA president Joe Castronovo noted, “Korg USA has a long and rich history of brand-building, and we’re always looking to partner with companies whose product mix complements our existing brands. With Ashdown, we are not only able to draw upon our extensive experience in the amplification category, but we are also able to offer our dealers a complete solution for all the major product areas they are interested in, from Keys, to amps, acoustic guitar to PA. Ashdown is a world-class product line that we are proud to represent and will continue to grow in the U.S. and Canadian markets.”

Mark Gooday, Ashdown founder and managing director, commented, “This is a fantastic moment in time for all of us here at Ashdown. After 16 years of Ashdown and 32 years of personally building bass amps, I am very proud to have Korg USA as our new U.S. and Canadian distributor as this will enable our brand to achieve the level of success in those markets that it enjoys in the rest of the world. We are 100% committed to giving Korg and our U.S. and Canadian customers exactly what they need in today’s ever-changing market.” 

Korg USA will begin shipping the Ashdown line of bass amplification products to dealers in the U.S. and Canada starting the end of September 2013.

Interested dealers as well as existing Ashdown dealers should contact Korg USA to become an authorized Korg USA dealer at: sales@korgusa.com (in the U.S.) or canadasales@korgusa.com (in Canada).
