Smash Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I currently have a GK 150MB Combo which in itself is excellent but for my use its too much for a bedroom practice amp, I now want to sell this excellent amp and get a cheapo bedroom amp, but would like something smaller if possible. Really would like a Markbass Micromark but 2nd hand I have never seen one come up and new they seem too much dosh, a Roland cube RX but these seem like a toy (maybe I am wrong) or failing that I have seen these Line 6 110. Was looking at the Roalnd cube 30 but its bigger than I wanted. Any other amps people could recommend has to be smaller than the GK 150MB thats gonna be difficult I know.

Smash Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Thanks for these guys, reckon price range upto £150 just as long as the dims are nice and small but also a fairly nice tone as I really need it for testing basses and possibly acoustic stuff, my fave so far is the lowdown 110 due to price, size, power. Mind you if there is a 2nd hand Markbass Micro around I would have a punt on that as I get on so well with their heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashgeezer Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 i have a carlsbro kickstart 30w and they sound really nice for a practice amp there not exactly tiny but nice little amps, 10in speaker which sound quite clear and you can pick em up off ebay now for about 50/60 quid, well worth a look. i "ll be upgrading soon but i"m keeping the amp as i really like em.
