  1. I’m giving this the weekend then it will withdrawn. There is a lot of Heads at this price point that are, IMO, inferior. I could consider a combo WHY. If I was in a band this would be a keeper. It’s that good.
  2. I did indeed, Gareth i was never a fan of MB until I got this, it is superb.
  3. The competition. https://thebassgallery.com/products/markbass-evo1 The blurb The Markbass EVO1 head is the result of the mix between classic and advanced technology evolution to allow bassists to have not only just a 'gorgeous' bass sound, but always the 'right' sound... no matter which genres and techniques you're playing!!! It offers six AMPS tone choices for each of the two channels, clean and distorted. Bass players have always been inspired by the possibility to mix two amplifiers tones and to blend clean and distorted sounds as Jaco Pastorius did back in the years. With the Markbass EVO 1 that's possible, opening many more sound options experimenting two amps playing simultaneously. Both channels feature classic standard amp controls interface and one effect each (you can update AMPs and effects picking and downloading your favorite ones from our website), MIDI In port, on board tuner, aux in and headphones out, FX loops, XLR Line Outs, and a powerful 500W MPT (Mark Proprietary Technology) power amp. EVO 1 Software You can update AMPs choices on each channel at your preference thanks to the MARKBASS EVO 1 SOFTWARE, that also allows to update FX choices for each channel and customize their parameters, plus you can set the Boost level that can be switched on/off via MIDI. The optional Markbass EVO 1 CONTROLLER allows to engage CH1 / CH2 or MIX both, turn on/off the FX1, FX2 and BOOST, plus accessing the TUNER with MUTE function pressing and holding the boost switch. The Markbass EVO 1 can be controlled also via programmable MIDI pedalboard. Download the latest version for WIN/MAC in the download area MB EVO 1 Controller, included The optional MB EVO 1 CONTROLLER allows to switch between CH1 and CH2, turn on/off the REV1, REV2 and BOOST, plus accessing the TUNER with MUTE function pressing and holding the boost switch. The EVO 1 can be controlled also via programmable MIDI pedalboard.
  4. I was noodling yesterday, the way you do, reminding myself how versatile the head is, it is with reluctance l put it up.
  5. A feeler at moment. The EVO has been in my possession about 6 months. It’s a 2 channal head and It a dream to use with 6 presets per channel 1 efx per channel. 500 Watts into 4 Ohms. https://www.markbass.it/product/markbass-evo1/ Before 5 October Stroke (this year) I did three gigs about 4 rehearsals finding it easy to change parameters on the fly with the footswitch. I was cast adrift by the band even though I was driving within 4 week. So it now redundant . I have the Box so shipping U.K. mainland doable at your expense, come try it out. I have a case for it. Heavy Duty Plastic, I’ll post a snap of that. Thanks for looking
  6. In mid ‘60’s there we’re two bands sporting a full ‘Gibson’ line up of this ‘Iconic’ shape, ‘Pawns’ and the ‘Merseybeat’s’. I can almost smell the vintage.
  7. It comes with a substantial, robust gig bag, I have bubble wrap and the box it arrived in, also substantial. What more UK mainland will be free.
  8. Grab a bargain Due to circumstances beyond my control, I need to divest myself of my Gear. The last I would I want is my daughter having dispose of kit she no idea how how to value. Sensible offers if so wish
  9. Scored an immaculate Sandberg gig bag, easypeasy transaction.
  10. This would a keeper if wasn’t for my predicament, the stroke that is 🤷‍♂️
  11. Snaps. The protective film is still on the Pre Amp cavity. Third snap is not a blemish it’s light reflection
  12. Web Site Blurb: INNOVATIVE BODY & NECK DESIGN Pushing the envelope of modern bass guitar design once again, the Radius features the unique NS Diradial™ Body curvature, which combines a torso-hugging convex back radius for enhanced comfort and stability with a tighter front profile that encourages a more natural right-hand playing position. Overall, the chambered maple body and distinctive, offset cutaways make this lightweight instrument perfectly balanced and extremely comfortable to play, with unrestrained freedom to access the upper register. The NS Fusion Neck is a one-piece, maple design with an embedded, continuous carbon fiber core, a combination that provides a natural feel whilst enhancing sustain and definition to every note. The smooth ebony fingerboard is fast and even all the way to the highest of the expertly set frets. On fretless Radius models, the fingerboard bears the same series of cascading dot makers that grace NS concert instruments, providing a perfect visual guide. NS PATENTED TUNING SYSTEM This is a Ned Steinberger bass through-and-through so it's headless, naturally, with a radically enhanced precision tuning system at the back of the body for more natural and subtle control. Based on a design originally developed for the NS Violin, the unique, self-clamping system (which accepts any standard scale single ball end strings) means that string changes and fine tuning are effortlessly quick and easy. As an added advantage, the system will also accept NS Omni Bass Strings, giving players the opportunity to approximate the sound of an acoustic upright bass, particularly on fretless Radius models. UNIQUE NS/EMG INTEGRATED PICKUP SYSTEM The Radius sports an integrated piezo and magnetic pickup system co-designed by NS Design and industry leaders EMG. A pair of EMG humbuckers deliver powerful, pure electric tones whilst the NS Polar™ piezo pickup system offers a wealth of acoustic character. Blended together you get a massive tonal palette to create rich, full-sounding bass sounds with character and definition. The on-board 18 volt CR Series preamp (WAV Models feature a 9 volt circuit) provides ample dynamic headroom for any style, in any performance environment, with comprehensive active electronics allowing you full reign to dial in any tone your imagination inspires.

THE LATEST NED STEINBERGER MASTERPIECE The Radius Bass is a unique and fearsome beast that is at once an ergonomic marvel, a work of art, a perfect carry-on companion, and a workhorse instrument with superb tone and enough firepower, stability, subtlety and versatility for any stage or studio.
