Music Ground, just up the road from the Sound Control on Oxford Road, although I recommend going to the Salford SC first, it's much bigger.

theres Sounds Great in Cheadle and HW Audio in Bolton. I went to HW for my LMK, great service

SoundsGreatMusic in Heald Green sell Markbass and a few Ampeg items. I'm not aware of any other MB stockist around Mcr - next nearest is Electromusic in Doncaster.

Yup, they closed the US factory down and sold up, caused quite a stir amongst our US
bass playing fraternity.
