  1. Hi, I was playing a gig last night and all went well.

    There were other musicians watching us, and a bass player said after that while my overall sound was great I could do with some effects on some songs.

    He uses a Darkglass vintage ultra pedel, anyone on here using one, can you give your opinion please.

    cheers

  2. Got my cab back yesterday and the guy couldn't replicate the problem I was having. Plays fine now, so don't know what was going on. Low frequencies and the cabinet resonating causing the horrible sound ( not my playing) lol. It's not something I understand really. This homemade cab will do for now but still on the look out for a proper 212.

  3. I took my cab to my local music shop today to get it checked out.
    Also did a lot of brousing on the internet. New top of the range drivers are quite expensive if I decide to upgrade the cab. I don't think it's worth doing, as the cab is an old battered guitar cab.
    I looked at all 212 cabs too, the price difference is amazing, am very interested in the TKS S212 and Markbass NY 212. If I can get more mileage out of what I've got, fine, if not I'm gonna treat myself to one of the above.
    I'll keep an eye out for second hand too.

  4. Hi all,
    After five years of gigging with an Orange Terror bass 500 and a Peavey 4x10 cab I decided I needed a change. Got bored and fed up with breaking my back hauling that heavy cab around. So I cobbled together 2 12"speakers into a cab and sounds great. Now I'm using a Markbass LM II and all was well, but the old celestions are starting to sound not so good, like they're torn or something.
    So I'm thinking of a MB cab, but can't decide weather to buy a 2x10 or 2x12. There is nowhere around here that stocks MB gear to try so might have to just buy off the internet and suck it and see.
    So, I play in a pretty loud rock band and need something to cut through, so maybe a Traveler 2x10 or Newyork 2x12.
    So I know you guys know your stuff, any advice would be helpful.
    Cheers.

  5. Thanks for all your replies. My trouble with Markbass has been finding a music shop/store who stocks this gear.
    So I've been to pmt Birmingham and px my old rig for a TC Electronics 1x15 combo. Up to now I'm pleased with it, but not counting out a MB purchase in the future.
    Cheers

  6. Hi all,
    I fancy changing my rig, and Markbass is at the top of my list. Anyone out there gigging with a CMD 102P combo??? Or a 2x12 cab and head??
    What's your opinion of markbass stuff????
    I have heard this make before and it sounded awesome, but was a country and western band, I'm more rock.
    Cheers

  7. Hi everyone,
    Iv got a 2012 Musicman Stingray and want to lower the action a little.
    Iv tried using the one I use for my Fenders but that is too small. It's a 1/16 key, the MM is a bit bigger. Anyone know exactly what size??????
    Cheers

  8. I like it, nice colour too. Frets don't look too bad. Can you send more photos to [email protected] please?? Laqucer chips and fret board too. If it's still for sale after pay day ( 15th) I may decide to buy it.
    Cheers.
