mine has broke. had it for six months barely used it cause i went off effects went back to play with it the other day and the up switch wont work im going to take it back tbh i was quite disappointed wit it in general. it was my second zoom product and they have both died in a very short time. jus my opinion andrew

It says it all that there are more people on here that r left handed but have learned to play right handed because of the difficulty of getting basses. its a shame and i often wish i had learned right handed but at least it looks different im glad i learned lh because if i was right handed i would be broke all the time and up to my eyes in basses.

I am left handed and play left handed basses. I too used to get very frustrated with this but i have learned that finding your ideal bass is a lot more rewarding because you have to work for it. I am proud of my collection as i have battled hard to find it i feel like i have some very unique basses. what does wind me up is the upcharge that companies charge. i think spector charges like ten or fifteen per cent on lefty models which is sick if you are already paying a fortune. the result is i avoid spectors. Fender are another one and there policy on jazz basses does my head in they sell mex lh jazzes, japan lh jazzes american deluxe jazz basses but the wont make a regular american jazz left handed even tho they will do a p bass american grrr result i wont buy fender products. I check ebay every day i search the internet all the time and if i see something i want at a good price i buy it i tend to buy it second hand that way if i dont like it i can gey my money back easier. heres a tip leftybass.com dont no if you have seen it. if i saw my dream bass on there i would be willing to go try it out and get it even if it meant traveling in europe.

my lead arrived fast delivery all working and what a difference in sound the bast way i can describe it is fuller i guess. Ive got to go to work now but just thought id let you no how pleased i am and thank you for the advice. I will have to give them a proper try tomoro as im at work till eleven

If you decide not to use your mark bass bag i may be intersted in buying if your selling

just get a spare bit of carpet put that ontop of your cab then use velcro no cab scuffs no sliding off and easy and cheap

i just bought a power bank with ten outputs off ebay for buy it now £20 no bad eh unless it gets here and explodes or doesnt come. he is selling quite a few just thought id let everyone no. i will let you no what its like wen it gets here

Tanc dont leave I am a newer member and i would like you to stay not because you are a woman but because i enjoy your posts and feel that you offer your opinion only when you have one and are respectful of everyone else.

I am sure any Mark bass head will be great best of luck p.s. i vote go stupid and get the SD800 you no you want it

sorry i just cudnt help myself

well thanks to this topic i am now building a board for my pedals i will stick a pic up when im done

took everyones advice and went with obbm i have ordered a bass to amp cable with one of those mute guys and a speaker to amp cable so i will let you no what i think wen i get them but i dont think i will be disapointed

Hi im selling a behringer stack 4x10 wit alu cones a 300 watt head I never had a problem with either it sounds good. i only replaced mine for something smaller. I am happy with mine nothing to complain about. no problems with reliability I do know what dood means about the tweeter but i found with a bit of fiddling you cud lessen the problem and some of the time i turn mine off and dont miss it at all. its got enough top end without it imo come and get a go and decide for your self ill put the kettle on.

I bought Warwickhunts sa450 i use it with a swr 2x10 and i love it. havnt gigged it yet but sounds great it mellows my Alembic brings out the true nature of my fretless rick turner and difines my schecter with emgs makes my effects more alive put simply it makes everything sound better to me andrew

yeah just realised that sorry i will see myself out hey give me a break i did a sixteen and a half hour shift in a severe and enduring mental health unit yesterday and i think i broke my head

you cud always try a markbass head. most have a filter that makes your bass sound like an vintage passive bass i have noticed a difference in effects using this. not cheap but a solution but just a suggestion
