[quote name='owen' post='133035' date='Feb 3 2008, 02:20 PM']As an ex 410XLT owner, this is an awful lot of cab for very little money.[/quote] It certainly is, the only reason I'm getting rid of it is 'cos I've got two EBS cabs, two Markbass ones and this. Gotta get rid of something as much as it pains me !

[quote name='d-basser' post='132800' date='Feb 2 2008, 09:58 PM']McCormacks have one in Glasgow but it has been there for yonks, I played it and had to say it was a massive dissappointment, poorly built and poor sounding.[/quote] I've found over time that it seems to be one of those basses that massively depends on what strings are on it. Currently got Warwick Red labels 40-100 on it at the mo and it's never sounded better. I'll agree that it doesn't stand out in the crowd but it pretty much the best all round bass I've had. Just seems to cover a lot of basses (oops sorry, bases)

I never see it for sale, even from Cort dealers. They occasionally pop up every once in a while on ebay, but that's mainly in the US. Strange. I've got one and I love it that much I was gonna get another as a back up.

********* Found a new home in Bridgwater, Somerset ********************** Ashdown MK500, spotless condition, hardly any dust never mind scratches or anything. Probably gigged about a dozen times, always been rackmounted. A list of specs can be found here:- [url="http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=113"]http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=113[/url] Brand new Sounds Live sells them for around £675. I live in the Teesside area and often frequent Sheffield if you're wondering about posting/delivery. Cheers

Hiya Rich and Chaps, I did indeed have a Key-Factor, fabulous bass which I went for mainly 'cos of the 34" scale length rather than the Ex-Factor's 32". Trouble is the Kubicki bass's bridge is inset quite far into the centre of the body, so the whole scale length moves to the left. Consequently a 32" bass feels more like 34".... my 34" Key-Factor unfortunately felt like a 36" bass. Had real problems reaching the first fret notes on it without it hurting. Not nice. So I'd deffo go for the Ex-Factor, the slap sounds from them are just astonishing. Such a unique sound, instantly recognisable.

Tried a friend of mine's Musicman Sub the other day and woah! Does that thing have some balls. So I thought I'd buy a Musicman, thing is I can't decide which to buy. I'm intrigued by the Bongo and Sterling but wondered if anyone had preferences/thoughts on the matter. Are they all variations on a theme ??

[quote name='Bill Fitzmaurice' post='83533' date='Nov 4 2007, 02:43 PM']Actually, I do, but mainly those are home theater line arrays. As to the location of the port, its location makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. The frequencies radiated from the port do so in a completely omnidirectional pattern, so it makes no difference which way the port faces. Rear ports and walls are only problematic if you slam the cab flush against the wall and seal the resulting joint airtight.[/quote] Right ok, so if that's the case why would Markbass manufacture the same cabs but in rear and front ported formats ? Seems a bit odd to me !
