Guest MoJo Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 [quote name='charic' post='1016547' date='Nov 8 2010, 04:41 PM']I think the studio may seem heavier as it so compact. You look at it and expect it to be lighter than it is.[/quote] That's probably what I meant. If the Line 6 were the same size as the Hartke I think it would be heavier. It's quite weighty for such a small unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MoJo Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 [quote name='Earbrass' post='1016277' date='Nov 8 2010, 12:51 PM']Sorry, but I think that's wishful thinking: according to the distributor's site, the Kickback 12 is 42lb [url="http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=30&brandID=3"]http://www.samsontech.com/products/product...0&brandID=3[/url] whereas the Studio 110 is 24lb [url="http://line6.com/lowdownstudio110/"]http://line6.com/lowdownstudio110/[/url] Of course, if you're reasonably strong, 42lbs is still pretty light. If you're a nine stone weakling like me, however, the Markbass CMD 121P is hard to beat as a truly giggable lightweight combo; at 29.5 lbs it's not a lot heavier than the Studio 110, and although it's a fair bit more costly than the Hartke, there have been a couple going on this site recently for stupidly low prices.[/quote] I used to have no problem carrying my kickback one handed into gigs. Certainly a lot lighter than the Trace Elliot 2x10 combo that replaced it and as light as a feather when compared to the Peavey 410tvx I usually have to wrestle into the boot of my car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MoJo Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I wish I could run to a Markbass but it's way out of my league I'm afraid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
