Rewbass

Welcome to the best bass forum.

Hi there! I'm thinking about giving a try to steel strings since I'm starting to look for a brighter sound, but just 'a bit' brighter, that's why I'm not sure and wonder your opinion about it. I've always used DR Sunbeams Nickel-Plated Round Core. I would try the same strings but stainless steel, like Fat-Beams. Any thoughts? I like warm but a bit bright and clear sound. (It's to play on my P-Bass BTW). Thnx in advance for your answers.

1. Markbass CMD 121 Little Mark 58R Combo 2. Scooped 3- Scooped, Old School and Flat

Is it right to push gain all straight as long as it doesn't clip? I usually scoop the gain much more than the master and I'm not sure if that is okay. Does it affect to the sound? and if it does, in what way? Thnx in advance.

I just edited my post. I just didn't realise as a matter of fact... thnx anyway.

Hi everybody! I'll be playing these two amps next week but first I'd like to get some thoughts about them. Pros & cons pls. Any advice will be appreciated.

The Markbass IV is a very good combo, but I'm afraid the new model MB58R got worse. The mids sound too boxy to my ears. Markbass did something wrong with these new CMD combos. It might be some plastic pieces inside.

Hi everyone! My name’s Rew. I’ve been playing bass for about 14 years now, mostly self-taught, and I totally fell in love with the groove. I currently play a Fender P-Bass through a Markbass, and I’m really into hard-rock. Huge fan of 'simple' playing: the less notes, the better (IMO). I joined the forum to learn more from you all. Looking forward to the conversations! Cheers!
