  1. I haven't played it yet, but I really like the option of adding an extra cab (like a 1x15") to it.
  2. The Rumble is 555 euro at Thoman [url="http://www.thomann.de/dk/markbass_mini_cmd_151p_lm3.htm"][/url] [url="http://www.thomann.de/dk/markbass_mini_cmd_151p_lm3.htm"][b]the MarkbassMini CMD 151P LM3 is 879 euro?[/b][/url]
  3. Any words on this lightweight 500 watt combo? Other alternatives in the 400-500 watt/price range? I hear the sound is good, vintage and very loud. The option of adding a second cab to it nice. The price is very good - but is there other stuff at that price I should consider? Thanks
  4. Thanks guys
  5. I got the Jaco-style Icon Series about a month ago. Plays very well, and the tone is just perfect. Only thing I don't like is the the pickups are not shielded. I get a buzzing whenever I don't touch the strings. A bit of a drag that I have to shield it myself
  6. Helle there my fellow bassheads. It's a wonderfull weekend in sunny Denmark, feels almost like summer. I have a 15" Gallien Krueger cab, and are thinking about adding a EBS cab, either a 12" or a 10". What are your thoughts, and is there a difference in the sound I would get from adding the 10" instead of a 12"? Thanks, and enjoy the weather while it's good - well, I just hope it's good no matter where you are ;-)
  7. [quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1397999303' post='2429359']Just spotted you list a Squier in your signature - you know what I'm talking about then LOL [/quote] Yep, I have the Deluxe Jazz (active) - and I don't think I'll ever sell it. Next step up might be a Fender MIM
  8. [color=#333333]I'm looking at Fender basses, in the budget Mexican series.[/color] [color=#333333]I'm a bit lost, since there are other series in the price range (Blacktop, Moderne Player etc.).[/color] [color=#333333]What are the differences in tone, quality, playability etc.[/color] [color=#333333]In short, what series offers the best bass for a budget buyer?[/color] [color=#333333]I'm mainly looking at a Fender Mexican Jazz - and likely a fretless Jazz later on.[/color] [color=#333333]Thanks for (hopefully) clearing this up for me[/color]
  9. Can the 120 really go the distance with a drummer? Not on stage, but in the rehearsal room?
  10. I really like the tone of the EBS Classic Session 120w combo, but 120w may not be enough. The next best thing could be the Reidmar 250w - not exactly the vintage tone of the combo - as Reidmar is a class D head, and the 120w combo is more of a slimmed down version of the EBS Classic 450 head. Have anyone used the Reidmar with other cabs than the EBS 10" and 12"? Someone said that it could be difficult getting the warm sound with other cabs than the EBS Classic cabs?
  11. I have only one question: Can I get a fretless version?
  12. Thank you for all inputs, I will definitely take them into consideration. Is the VJ96 replaced with the V74? Can't find the VJ96 on the homepage anymore
  13. Thanks John, much appreciated
  14. I'm getting interested in a fretless at a reasonable price - think Squier. I just stumbled across a bass from a company called Vintage. Not to crazy about the look, but then again - there's a cool sound from it, according to Youtube. Anyone who can tell me a bit about the good/bad from this company? It's priced around what a Squier VM fretless Jazz is at. The one I'm looking at is the Icon Series VJ96 fretless.

  15. Thanks guys, I better go and try them both out - and compare them
  16. Hi guys, and happy holidays. I've been looking at the Hartke HA 3500 head lately, but people tell me that the fan is a bit noisy. What about the LH 500, is there a difference in sound between the two heads? Is the LH 500 as good a choice as the HA 3500 has been for many years? Which head would you choose, and why? Thanks
  17. 'Tis the season to make that list. Since I'm a sucker for CD box sets as well as groovy basslines, I was thinking of getting a few wishes dotted down on the dreaded annual wish list. So far i have only found a Jaco Pastorius 2CD, a Maurcus Miller 5CD collection and a Charles Mingus box. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated
  18. I'm getting the P-version. Sounds great, looks cool - feels wonderful.
  19. [quote name='col67' timestamp='1350200372' post='1835597'] The mag 300 has no compressor the mag300 evo2 has. Ive had both and i preffered the evo2. I had the 2x10 combo and a 1x15 ext [/quote] Thanks for clearing that up
  20. Yup. Ashdown mag 300 EVO II 1x15" versus an Ashdown mag 300 (not EVO) 2x10"
  21. Ahem...i have a small bonus question! Is there something called a Mag 300 (without the EVO-name)? I have two amps that I'm looking on s/h, one is for sure a EVO II, the other one is "possibly" an EVO. If this is the casem should I avoid the non-EVO amp? Hope someone could clarify this for a non-Ashdown user
  22. Thanks for the info. I got my eye on two MAGs. A 1x15" and a 2x10". What's your thoughts on these two? Again. Thanks for all comments and inputs
  23. [font=verdana, geneva, lucida,][size=2] [b]What Ashdown would you get?[/b][/size][/font][color=#000000][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] The MAG 300 combo or the T115 250S combo?[/font][/color]
  24. Nobody want to show their guessing skills? I like the number 3 Sound best, and I might guess it's a P bass. Who wants to take a shot at it, before the correct answers are revealed?
  25. I could hear the difference, but I'm not quite sure what bass I like the best http://dubsaint.wordpress.com/2012/06/15/p-j-or-ray-whats-the-difference-anyway-part-2-take-the-sound-test/ That said, I love to play on my Jazz - the P is a big chunk of wood compared to the slick and sexy J. Never played a Ray - yet!
