nottswarwick Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) So, I've got a bit of a dilemma I currently run a markbass mini cmd 121p combo and a markbass traveller 102p cab sometimes accompanies it. I am more than happy with this set up, as when used together it is big and loud, and when used alone the combo is great and über portable. BUT, I am musing over a bit of a trade around of gear, so here are some options... 1..trade the combo for a markbass head, with a little cash my way 2..trade the combo and cab together for one of the larger markbass combos, the 210 or the bigger 12inch one, again with maybe a little cash to me, depending on the deal 3..trade the combo and cab for a head and larger cab - markbass or maybe something else, but must have a tweeter and be light ish. Basically I am looking to achieve one rig I can use for all situations, as currently I sometimes need to use cab and combo together. I'd like either a bigger combo suitable for all events, or a head and bigger cab...I think. Basically just try me for size, I am kind of open to suggestions....

discreet Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) Is using the cab and combo together that much of a problem? Looks like you've got the rig that's suitable for all events already! If you're happy with your sound, I wouldn't fix it if it ain't broke. [color=#ffffff].[/color] Edited January 1, 2013 by discreet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottswarwick Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Lol you may well be right....I think I am trying to magic a bit of cash from somewhere, as I want a P bass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Ah-ha! Then your question is really, 'how can I get enough money to buy a P-Bass?' To which my answer is, 'I'm sorry, I don't know Chris. Do you have anything you can sell that isn't your rig?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yep I agree with this If it was me personally though i'd prefer to have a seperate head and cab so I can roll up with even less to carry when cabinets are provided by venues/other bands.

nottswarwick Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Lol, actually I might just flog the 210 cab to be fair, as I can use PA support on all gigs anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
