  1. [quote name='ironside1966' post='941377' date='Aug 31 2010, 08:47 PM']Use a comp or limiter[/quote] Solution to a problem that shouldn't be there. I'd send it back to Markbass as many times as it takes to fix it.
  2. Looks surprisingly nice
  3. [quote name='Colledge' post='935563' date='Aug 25 2010, 12:59 AM']+1, an active bass will have a stronger signal so will drive it more, kinda like having the gain at 11.[/quote] Wrong, e.g. my passive P-bass kills my active Pedulla in terms of volume
  4. [quote name='51m0n' post='931117' date='Aug 20 2010, 04:48 PM']IMO neither sounds remotely dull or like a generic 15 (surely that was a wind up ?) but whatever. You can hear masses of top end off those cabs (admittedly rather fizzy from the OD pedal but hey its there), and both rigs did a brilliant job of getting the sound that was wanted and drowning out the rest of the neighbourhood in bass.[/quote] Not a wind up, just sounds like the tone I hated but had to put up with with my first amp. I can't describe it, it's just there
  5. That was ace, nice one.
  6. They both sound like a dull SS amp through a generic 15" cab in an acoustically bad room, but I voted number 2.
  7. We set up amps and PA in a friends back garden for his birthday, and also once played in a Conservative members club and got a lifetime ban

  9. I use a £10 Behringer SM58 rip-off
  10. Assuming your cabs are both 8ohm you can go with your proposed method or run both cables from the back of the amp to each cab - either way ends up the same. With the latter option though one cab will alwys be connected if a cable fails.
  11. Where is "near Birmingham"?
  12. It's a good idea to take a picture of the insides before you start so you have a guide where everything goes back (just in case)
  13. Desolder, resolder, done.
  14. [quote name='KiOgon' post='895638' date='Jul 15 2010, 02:33 PM']This ebay shop is great for price & fast delivery, if you can do the soldering? [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Connector-Jack-1-4-Chassis-Socket-Guitar-Stereo-SW-/190417696124?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2c55c7757c"]Jack Socket[/url] they have plenty of other types, the one in the link is a stereo, I know nothing about your particular bass but most are mono out - do you use a stereo jack lead? Cheers, John[/quote] The output isn't stereo, but a stereo jack is used to switch the active circuit on when the mono jack is inserted.
  15. I use this odd tuning, "EADG" or something...
  16. [quote name='munkonthehill' post='898438' date='Jul 18 2010, 10:32 PM']aye but if he he delivered it to you personally,,,,that means he would know where you live,,,,as its already clear he is a robbin bastard,,,i think its a bit dodgy he knows your EXACT address and house layout!!!!!haha[/quote] Careful, he is "determinated" to sell the bass
  17. Bump
  18. I have this "wide" version too, I think they must have had surplus heads originally destined to be fitted into a combo. It is too wide to be rack mounted.
  19. [quote name='GarethFlatlands' post='887733' date='Jul 6 2010, 08:14 PM']Aaargh.... Want.... But don't need..... Damn it! How does it play? And where in the NW are you?[/quote] PM'd
  20. Bump - any offers?
  21. I tend to end my items on a sunday evening, the rare ones that go on ebay that is

  23. [quote name='everyonedoesit' post='884033' date='Jul 2 2010, 03:02 PM']is the bass still for sale? also does it come with a hard case? cheers[/quote] Yes it is still for sale, no case though. PM'd
  24. [quote name='Dubs' post='883431' date='Jul 1 2010, 09:27 PM']I'm probably going to get flamed here, but I think guitar cabs (as opposed to bass cabs) are less about the design of the cab and more about your choice of driver. Just my experience/opinion. Ask yourself what you're going to use it for, what amp you're going to use it with, how much you want to spend, and then you should get a pretty good idea about what you need to do. Personally for guitar I'd stick with 12" drivers.[/quote] This tbh.
