Well, how is it Bob? Got any piccies Eude

Ever closer... Eude

Man, that's a weird turn out. I think the cut in power is to get the overall size right down, to keep up with their competitors. Going with a 15" combo seems insane though. I really hoped they would've gone down the 1X12" modular route, my only real complaint about the 1X10" Combo is that it lacks a tiny bit of bootey. We'll see, there might be another page to the catalogue, or perhaps a "Promethean Pro" line is in the pipe, who knows... Eude

[quote name='jackers' timestamp='1326403019' post='1496892'] yea, the 12s sound really meaty, i love them. I'm afraid I don't have much experience with markbass stuff I've only played through a Markbass rig once for about 15 mins while testing out my jazz bass, so I wouldn't be able to give you a good comparison, sorry. [/quote] No bother mate, just wanted to check. I've always loved the MarkBass tone, and I'm likely to need a bigger rig some point this year, was just going to go with a MarkBass again, but I'd really like to "buy British" if it's comparable... Keep us posted on how you get on with your MiBass, it "sounds" like a pretty sweet amp! Eude

[quote name='jackers' timestamp='1326398780' post='1496826'] so, I have just taken delivery of an epifani ul2 212 courtesy of old horse murphy (cheers man ), and had a quick test of the mibass at bedroom levels. I have to say I am seriously impressed. This is the first head and cab I have played where I would seriously consider playing without my sansamp, it sounds that good. The rig will get it's first real test at my rehearsal next week, but so far I have high hopes [/quote] Nice one mate! Gotta love those 12" cabs Just out of curiosity have you got any experience of MarkBass kit? Just wonder how the MiBass might compare to a LittleMark, you see?... Eude

Sheeite! I'm going to have words with the wife tonight, fingers crossed they don't run out before tomorrow... Eude

[quote name='funkypenguin' timestamp='1326323005' post='1495617'] whoaaa she looks gorgeous already!! [/quote] Thanks dude, I can't wait! Eude

Wow! That looks amazing mate! Congrats Eude

[quote name='voxpop' timestamp='1326180823' post='1493275'] The six string fretless P bass will be here tomorrow morning, just in time fr a recording project. Pictures will be up as soon as I can... Pos Thursday. [/quote] Excellent mate, can't wait to see this beast! Eude

[quote name='OmeDunk' timestamp='1326182804' post='1493290'] I can't believe how beautiful that dark wood is! [/quote] Thanks man

Here's a "First Look" from over on Talkbass... http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f36/zoom-b3-first-look-835255/ Eude

You seen this Dood? >> http://basschat.co.uk/topic/9623-acg-build-progress/page__view__findpost__p__1481652 Sugden's new bass, it's got 15mm spacing. Eude

[quote name='GreeneKing' timestamp='1324595384' post='1476202'] I've been playing it a lot today. I've owned many basses, too many perhaps if that's possible. This is I think the nicest playing bass of them all. Peter [/quote] That's awesome to hear mate How'd you like the pickup combo and the U-Retro? Did you go for the passive switching one? Eude

[quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1324481751' post='1474809'] Depending on the price (do we know how much it will be?) I'd replace my Edirol interface with one of these. [/quote] Thinking something similar myself! The guitar equivalent is £149!

Sub'd. Reckon I might treat myself to one of these when they come out next year :-) Eude

Boooo :-(

[quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1324386643' post='1473662'] Ive never played a MB head that, to me, sounded like something else if that makes sense. I love the basic tone they produce and especially the filters. I find the EQ is a bit subtle but thats not a problems as i dont want to really tone shape my sound, just tweak it for different venues/stages. I find i tweak less with the F1 than i did with the other heads, especially on hollow wooden stages. My cab is pretty coloured so maybe i dont hear the heads at thier best but they seem to work for me, no matter what bass i use. I did try and break free of the MB tone this year but as you can see, i came back pretty quick. Just PM me if you ever want to give it a try out, i dont mind if you want to take it for a gig, as long as im not using it thats fine. [/quote] Me too man, I love the Promethean, it's insanely good for the size and the money, but I do miss the core tone I got from a LittleMark through an Aguilar GS112. I kinda felt like "my tone", although I imagine it's a lot of other folks' tone too I used to just plug in and play, rarely had to make any adjustments whatsoever, which is always nice! I definitely will PM you next year matey, thanks for your help Eude

[quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1324376561' post='1473468'] No problem. While i never intended to get a F1 its working out fine. I do miss having the extra EQ the SA450 has, so i do want a F500 at some point but as i mostly run the MB heads flat i dont really see me needing to upgrade any time soon. One thing i have noticed is that since getting the F1 ive stopped using my BDDI all the time. Before i was using it to add a little "something" to the tone, not dirt or distortion as such, just a slight gain and low end boost, now i find the F1 has that and i hardly use the BDDI. If you want to come over and try it at some point let me know. [/quote] Nice one. The tone on the MarkBass stuff seems to just sound that little bit more "alive", if you know what I mean. I used to run my LittleMark 250 completely flat too, I just loved the sound that came out of that little box, so if the F1 is similar, with even better punch, I'd be a very happy Eude! Cheers for the offer of a go, I might just take you up on that next year if that's cool Eude
