buff Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) To be totally honest im not sure if this is the guitar version of the bass head, but have used it no problem's with a bass. There's a lot of info on the net about these head's. It say's 400 on the front, but the inputs on the back say 300 at 2ohm's and 210 at 4ohm's ( but also states 800 watts near the voltage output) ive only used it with two 8 ohm cab's giving me 4 ohms, but have never had to run it past 4 on the volume's in any gig situation . Normally plug into the input that gives the selection of both channel's together. This amp is incredibly loud and solid, vinyl in good nick, small piece missing of the vent grill on top and corner'c could do with a coat of paint. £70 plus postage Edited September 20, 2010 by buff
casapete Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 These were originally marketed as suitable for guitar/keyboards etc as well as bass. Great amps, and a cracking deal too. Bump!

I nearly took the paint off the walls of the small place we were playing... I can only repeat how loud and solid these things are. A safe and dependable amp, if a little heavy for modern standards.

Baskesman Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Can someone tell me the difference between this musician Mk III and a Bass Mk III?
razze06 Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 The bass head has two channels with similar controls (one 's got a parametric mid knob and a compressor, the other doesn't), the musician has two channels with substantially different controls (one's even got a phasor!).

buff Posted September 15, 2010 Author Posted September 15, 2010 Ive had both head's and could'nt tell much difference between them, other than this one seems louder.
