Le Chat Noir Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) EDIT: sold! These were a short-lived model produced by Markbass in Italy for Musicman, and electronically very similar to a Markbass TA503. It's a very full, punchy amp that is pretty rare these days. I've read people comparing it to a beefed-up old school Bassman-type sound with more headroom, which it pretty accurate. Type Musicman HD500 into Google for a bunch of reviews and comments from users. It's in good condition with the expected bit of rack rash. If someone is really interested I can get some pics of it. Was thinking about something like 400 quid shipped? I'm open to offers though as it's hard to gauge a sensible price given their rarity. I've read that they sold in shops for $1250 new about 10 years ago ([url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f15/mm-audiophile-hd-500-a-16511/"]http://www.talkbass....hd-500-a-16511/[/url])! EDIT: sold!
