DSBass Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I'm thinking of getting a Markbass 15" combo. Has anyone tried both the CMD 151P Jeff Berlin amp and the Mini CMD 151P? What's the difference between the two sound wise? Would both of them be enough for gigging with a 5-string without an extra cab? On bigger gigs I have PA support.

tom1946 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Hi, I have the CMD151P and have to say it's the best combo by far that I've ever owned. Powerful and focused. Depends where you gig as to whether you'd need a cab. I cannot speak for the JB though but I'd imagine they are quite similar apart from it not having a tweeter and the amp facing forward. Hope that helps from 1 amp point of view.. Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Thanks a lot. This one is the one I'm most interested in du to its light weight and the fact that it's smaller. Have you played a 5-string with it? If so, How does it handle the low B? I play mostly small to medium venues. One of my main gigs have a really good powerful PA and we have in ears monitors. I was basically thinking of going ampless but I like having a little air coming from behind Best regards/Daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I have a CMD 121P and it is fine with a 5 string, so a 151P should be even better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
