[quote name='lxxwj' timestamp='1333454779' post='1601858'] The Bass Blogger needs to have an isolated supply to work correctly. Everything else looks like it should work fine with a Diago Powerstation. If you can find one in England, a Diago Isolator Adaptor should work with the Blogger if you want to keep it all on one daisy chain. [/quote] thanks

[color=#000000][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]What power supply will be able to power all these pedals? Bear in mind the pitchblack alone needs 600ma but it can then power another maximum of about 4 pedals. And the bass blogger is different because it isn't ground positive? I'm not sure on that one but recommend me a power supply that will handle all these and room for more! Thanks![/font][/color] [attachment=104041:Bass pedalboard.jpg]

Anybody got info?

[quote name='Al Heeley' timestamp='1333235844' post='1599166'] i imagine it follows along similar lines to the ehx chorus mod, where the original resistor and switch is removed and replaced with a potentiometer - you can then dial in the required depth. I will see if i can find any more info for you on the circuit and the pot value needed. edit: have a look here: http://experimentalistsanonymous.com/board/index.php?topic=1095.0 [/quote] That's the sort of thing im exactly looking for thanks!

Any body know a mod or can explain one to me that will make the up position of the colour switch less dramatic? I want the up position to be a little more between the up and down position. Any body any ideas? Thanks!

I knew about the distortion and Octaver not the eq though

What pedals have they released?

[quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1332925019' post='1594826'] bit of deja vu going on here http://basschat.co.uk/topic/171695-fender-or-marshall-bass-amp-help/page__p__1591786__fromsearch__1#entry1591786 [/quote] Haha my post too!

[quote name='Dandelion' timestamp='1332678256' post='1591456'] I am also considering this series. An MB head and MB 4x10 cab. Which gives me the option for a further MB 4x10 for extra "pose" and loudness. Now that the initial reliability issues have been resolved, I have read that the only thing that is sub par on the MB series is that the onboard compressor, which is supposed to be a tad pants. But nothing a pedal could not fix. From what I have read, that the 4210 combo is very loud on its own. All I need to do now is convince Mrs Dandelion that I deserve a new amp. [/quote] Haha luckily for me I dont like using compression that much I never use it, I prefer using technique and EQ to get slap tones and finger style is never a problem. I can get Along fine without compression

[quote name='leonshelley01' timestamp='1332669118' post='1591270'] I've been using an MB4210 and MBC115 for a couple of years now and never had any problems with either of them. My understanding is the initial batch had some problems with overheating and blown crossovers, but they appear to have sorted it now. [/quote] That's good your set up is what I'm initially aiming for but I'm starting with the 4210, is it good and loud by itself?

I've been reading up on the MB4210 because I'm highly considering getting it, I have a mb30 and love the tone and everything about it. All the forums I read where based on the MB4210 crapping out and stuff but these forums were posted back in 2010 and 2011 and possibly earlier. Has anybody currently got that amp or another Marshall MB series? Is there amp problems sorted? Are they now more reliable? Thanks

[quote name='mercuryl' timestamp='1332630397' post='1591058'] It was plenty loud. Never really used it at more than 3. I bought it all new - hence how I was able to get Marshall to repair under warranty. Bought it all in 2009 I think. The lead connector on the cab became intermittent. When they fixed it, it was solid as a rock. One of the speaker leads on the cab became loose - both solid as a rock when it was returned. Also the combo developed a rattle - which was put down to a loose valve socket. When I played live I played bi-amped with this rig, so if anything blew, I'd be covered. Nothing actually failed more than once - bit three failures in one year put me off it a bit. [/quote] We would like to think someone as big as Marshall have sorted the problems by 2012!

[quote name='mercuryl' timestamp='1332629342' post='1591048'] I also had the MB4210 - with the MBC115 extension cab. In either config - was loud. Sounded very nice with the extension. I actually had the 450 watt head, the 2x10 combo and the 1x15 cab which I used as a stack. All of them had to be returned to Marshall for repairs - although Marshall did turn them around very quickly. Very loud and great sound - not so reliable. [/quote] That's one kick ass rig haha

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1332627246' post='1591020'] One thing to be in mind of, the early models in this range had some reliability issues. An acquaintance I know works at Marshall, and he said that they literally had to redo the early batches, as they weren`t put together too well. This has now sorted itself out. From the MB range I`ve had the MB4210 combo, MB115 speaker cab, MB30 practice amp, MB450 head, and MB410 cab. Not a problem with any of them. I bought my first setup, the 4210 & 115 in 2007, a mate of mine now has the 4210, and he`s never had any problems with it either. [/quote] I'd be buying mine brand new would the issues have been addressed properly? Is Marshalls mb series now completely reliable compared to 2007? I've got a mb30 and has had it since August and it's been a tank ever since will it be the same for the 4210? (I do hope so) Thanks

Thank you both

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1332589516' post='1590350'] The Marshall will be louder. I used to have the 4210, and used it in a heavy rock band with 2 gtrs using Marshall half-stacks, and a very loud drummer. Admittedly, for gigs I took along the matching 115, but that was more for the look than the needing another cab, although it does beef up the sound a lot. Volume wise, combo on its own, it used to be on about 5/6, with plenty more available (7 was wayyyyy too much). I used a Fender Rumble 100 combo last week at a gig. Fantastic tone, but run flat out I couldn`t hear myself. 50 more watts I wouldn`t think would make that much more difference. [/quote] Thanks

[quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1332589844' post='1590359'] I've got a Marshall MB 4210 which I use with a 1 x 15 ext cab, it's LOUD, never got anywhere near full volume, [/quote] What about reliability? Could write me a mini review Please? Thanks

What would go for a fender rumble 150 head with fender rumble 410 cab or Marshall mb4210 combo? I play rock orientated stuff (foo fighters) as my main genre with my band but I play everything from blues to acid jazz to funk to rock! I've played through a fender rumble 150 into a Marshall 410 can before and it copes volume wise but I also have a Marshall mb30 and I want to know which one of the two options (mb4210 or rumble combo) will give me the most volume? I know more speakers is more air moved but I was wondering if the Marshall will be as loud or louder. I like the tone of both but prefer the Marshall just abit. Comments and answers please! Many thanks!
