Small combo with BIG sound!

I just had one of Mark Bass combo CMD 121P in my studio and made a comparison video with my GK Fusion combo. Maybe it will help You decide. It is not in a live gig but maybe it would be helpful.

I had two MB series Combos. The second one I had MB212 combo was fan cooled, and the fan was very loud. Played on low volume im my room I was always unhappy with the very loud fan, and I sold it because of that. On the other hand, I like GK sound so much to buy a new Fusion series combo. It is absolutely brilliant!

After a lot of misunderstandings, I made a video about the Sandberg Bass bridge. Hope You will enjoy it 🙂.

Got an GK Fusion 112 Combo few days ago, and here is the Sound test I made 🙂. Hope You will enjoy the video and found it interesting. Since the video is audio-oriented, these are my short non sound impressions: Firts thing that I noticed while unpacking is the new ultra-tough cabinet coating which I really liked. Different then the lining on the models before, as plastic and kind of a glittering. It really feels durable. Strange notice - ''stby'' led lamp lights always while amp is plugged in to the power and turned off. Led shuts down when You turn on the amp. Similar to a red/green TV led, but not common for amps. I would realy love that Turn on/off switch is located at some more accessible place. It's hard to reach at the lower back of the combo, next to a bunch of other switches while You are holding Your instrument or the amp is on the floor etc. The control buttons are easy to access and nicely designed, but some of them feels a bit loose. Front metal grill looks cool and it's firmly leaning on three rubber pads, but still shaking hardly and gives humming noices on louder volume (more then 12 o'clock on Normal and Master or more bass EQ added). Slight touch on the grill eliminates those noises which are not coming from the speaker! IMO the amp have to much power, but not enough largeness to deliver it without the extension box (as the manual say - optimum power when using external cabinets). However it is loud enough by itself to play next to a loud drummer - proofs at the end of the video. A brief review of the footswitch: Precise workmanship and briliant simple appearance. Robust and durable and at the same time elegant. I love it! Surprisingly not branded anywhere. At the end, there is no lighter, more compact and more powerful Combo amp on the market as I am concerned, with multiple great tonal capabilities. GK strikes again!

Here are three different Pbasses I recorded just yesterday. Hope You will enjoy the sound 😊.

This is one of the most beautiful Sunburst colors I have ever seen

Here is my pedalboard with the latest updates. Thanks for watching!

Which one You prefer, standard or Special Ray and why ?

P bass Shootout | Blind Test Reveal Thanks to everyone who watched, shared, commented and enjoyed this video.

You are absolutely right about that, but it wasn't more time for me to record a different line

All of them was fun to play. They all have P bass sound, but fell a little bit different. However, 1968 has something unexplainable in it, maybe the years has something with it, but the feel of 1968 is different then the others.

Thank You, and all the others who thinks the same ☺️

I just had a chance to have all of these beautiful basses at the same time in my studio for a weekend. I used it to make a sound comparison video of 6 Precision type bass guitars, 5 Fender and an alien - Maruszczyk. Always wanted to test different eras and different price range P basses. All the info about the basses and the recording is under the video at YT. Hope You will enjoy and let me know what You think about it ☺️.

What did you do with your original pickup?

Hi In a past week I got these two beautiful short scale basses in my hands, and immediately made a sound comparison video. I hope it will be as interesting to someone as it was to me while I was recording and playing them.

It's gorgeous! Approved by The Prince!

Thanks a lot! Here is the new one from today ☺️

Thanks and nice You like the video. All the info about the video is just under it in on YouTube. Just click - Show more 😉

Hey! This is what I was looking for while shopping for a Special, and couldn't found anything similar at the time. Now I had a chance to made one which can maybe help someone decide between ''old'' Ray or Special. No talk, no procrastination just a sound test. I hope you enjoy it 😉.

Here is another new one

I understand You completely. For that reason I do not use Noise gate at all, although the heart of my board is also Adam. For now, I am ok with just a three Adam presets, because having some more drives at the board. My problem is turning Adam on and off by pressing A+B together. For example, if I play preset A, and turn Adam off, and latter I need preset B, by pressing B from off, Adam will turn on latest used and that is A in this case. Then I need to actually press B twice very fast, and sometimes I forget that. I wrote to DG about this, and they response that this is just the way Machine is built. It would be nice to add some possibilities in new Suite update. Digital pedals gives more and more new software options for user to adjust by themselves. I like it
