These are supposed to be unbelievable value for the money. Pre amp pedal of choice, then into this (in case the pedal won’t drive a power amp as some don’t). Like lots of stuff, when you get into separates, it’s all down to taste. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDaBass Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) Sound reinforcement used on acoustic evenings with 3 or 4 guitars, mandolin, Bodhran, and vocals with no amps or mics. My Fender Kingman just got lost so I followed @Phil Starr House Jam Micro 6 ins cab and built a F**der IMP 🤣 Edited January 11, 2022 by JohnDaBass spelling 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scalpy Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Doing a fair amount of pit work I had tired of lumping my surprisingly large footprint Aggie db112s into very cramped pits. So for shows and rehearsals I jumped at an end of line db elbee cab. I was running it with a little mark tube. About the same time our singer moved house and kindly converted the garage into a rehearsal studio. He was tired of the ritual having to set everything back up again after gigs, so ordered another elbee. What he hadn’t realised was you need an amp, so after telling him I’d sort it he ignored me, I turned up to rehearsal and there was a veyron. So, my beater Sire bass, two bargain cabs and amp which keep up with a 5 piece horn section and percussionist as well as standard rhythm section. Probably costs less than a grand all in and sounds ace. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Horse Murphy Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 So I swapped out the Ampeg PF800 for a Mark Bass Little Marcus 1000. I don't know why I bother moving away from anything other than Mark Bass heads as I always gravitate back towards them. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite tempted to go back to MarkBass and quite fancy giving either a Little Mark Vintage D2 or the Little Mark Tube a go. I did try the Marcus once and I was really impressed with it.

I have recently bought a Little Mark Tube and I love the sound. I'm really really happy with the head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meant for @AndyTravis @lee650 has the Spector now… Gutted really, but I know he loves it. The Sabre is an absolute knockout, and I dare say, more suited to me than the Spector. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a gorgeous Stingray much like Cliff Williams from AC/DC, they are road worthy instruments and bomb proof! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

la bam Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) 2022's rig! X2 markbass traveller 210 cabs (Italian made) Head unit consists of: X1 markbass big bang 500 (spare). X1 markbass littlemark 3. X1 sansamp bass driver v2. X1 boss w50 wireless unit. X1 pedaltrain space saving tuner. X1 shelf drawer for cables etc. X1 4 way ext lead. All pre wired, so just one plug to plug in. The head unit box is a modified tool box I got from b and q. So lightweight. The cabs can be carried one in each hand, as can the head unit. The boss unit searches for the best signal itself, so no hassle searching for the best frequency. The wireless unit goes into the sansamp, where I send a di signal from to FOH, and the OUT goes to my lm3 for stage monitoring. It's also SO SO loud. I genuinely cant believe how loud it is. It must be to do with having the top cab up high. I literally have the gain on 9oclock and master at 8oclock and it's super loud even then.
