Delberthot Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) There's something else that I have my eye on now so this is up for grabs. I bought the [url="http://www.gallien-krueger.com/products_mbCombos.html"]MB210 combo[/url] at the end of last year and the [url="http://www.gallien-krueger.com/products_mbe_series.html"]115MBE[/url] cab shortly afterwards. For something so small and light, this goes very loud and gnarly thanks to the GK Boost control. I've used this for everything from small pubs to huge social clubs and its never failed to deliver or come close to its limits. The combo has the usual GK parametric EQ and boost controls as well as horn on/off button and a limiter which I have on all the time. It puts out 350w on its own or 500w with a second cab. The cab is the 400w 8ohm version and not the cheaper 200w one. A lot of the bottom end trouser flapping quality comes from this cab and IMO its a perfect match to this combo. The cabs are in near mint condition and have been kept in their matching Roqsolid covers since Ibought them. The combo cover has blue piping and the cab has red so that I could tell which was which whenever just wanted to grab the combo. There is some marking to the bottom of the combo and cab when they have been put down outside the car prior to loading them but nothing major and nothing visible when you are using them (unless you wanted to stack them horizontally for whatever reason) Oh yes, with them being identical sizes you could stack them horizontally. They both come in at under 16kg each making it an easy one journey from car to stage with the pair of them All in, including the covers, they cost me about £800. I am going to do them for £580 posted to mainland UK. They are less than 6 months old and still look almost brand new. Here are some pics, I will try to get more up over the weekend, if they last that long. I won't split them unless I have definite offers for both Edited June 5, 2012 by Delberthot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 1st bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Dave Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 ll give Mr hot a bump and confirm all he says about this rig which is the rig I'm currently using and am very happy with. I'm now doing the majority of Doc B gigs with the combo alone , with my old GK/Ashdown rig I had to use both cabs most of the time. The MB210 has incredible bass for such a lightweight unit. The only difference between this rig and mine is that Delbert put a little thought into the covers and had the piping in different colours to distinguish one from t'other. I had both my roqsolids done in blue like a right pillock and have had to put tape round the combo handle to tell them apart ! In fact whichever sensible BCer buys this - if you want matching covers I'll swap you the red one for my blue ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 Thanks Dr. I honestly won't be sad if I don't sell this. You actually have the time it takes me to get my Rickenbacker next week to buy it cos if its not sold by then I'm running it alongside a Hartke LH500 and Ashdown 4x10" for the full Ric-o-sound experience.

Delberthot Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Forgot to say that I'd be up for trades You can try me bass wise but the only thing I'd be looking for amp wise is an Ashdown ABM410 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 I probably should've said I prefer 4 string passive basses - unless you have a 12ver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 The Rick is nearly here so as soon as I have it and get my stereo insert cable ordered I'll be withdrawing it. So for the last few hours this is now available for £550 posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Little off topic, but where did you get the stand from mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Its a Giraffe one but I think they went out of business.That's held everything from this combo to a 40kg 4x10". Solid as a rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Well if you sell it separately at any point let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) OK, I've put together another rig that I fancied so I'm going to offer this one final time for £530 delivered to mainland UK or £500 if picked up. I'm away for the weekend so won't be able to answer any questions until Tuesday. If it doesn't sell then I'll withdraw it and have one hell of a Ric-o-sound rig Edited June 2, 2012 by Delberthot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Dave Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I did a monsterous room this aft and for logistical reasons (courtesy car) couldn't take the extension cab to what's pretty much a loud rock venue - so I used the combo alone. I was a huge sound - and I even had a couple of players come over to see what the hell it was. They thought I must have shoved it through the PA which I hadn't at all. Do yourselves a favour , folks - esp at this bargain price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bassman Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I've just got back from my regular Sunday night gig at Bradford City Vaults Been using my MB210 there for a year or so with upright and Fender basses Gives me a big, fat, vintage sound with any bass Tonight the venue was heaving with the noisiest audience I've ever experienced but I could hear every note from my Yamaha SLB200 Don't miss out on a bargain!
