spongebob Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Does anyone know of where I can buy a couple of covers for my Markbass 121P combo and New York amp? I've seen some 'unbranded' stuff on e-bay, but you can never tell quite how good they are! Any thoughts on this? With all the Winter gigs booked, the chance of getting a soaking is becoming higher. Last time I wrapped the amp in a bin bag - not cool!! I don't think that Markbass make covers themselves...I've searched the net, but I must be missing where they are! Any help or suggestions appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIAC they are very good quality - just used the eBay company to get a cover for my Mesa combo and its a ton better than the stock, thin (frankly rubbish) Mesa cover. They have a number of amp/cab models already on their system so they have the dimensions - if not they will ask you to supply exact dimensions, so have a tape measure handy.

dannybuoy Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Although they are waterproof, there is a hole in the top (or should be) for the handle, so a bit of water could still get in if it's a toerrential downpour. I have a black one with red piping which came with my 121P when I bought it second hand... I'm thinking of replacing it with a nicer looking black & yellow one though!

Adee Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Thse guys are great [url="http://www.roqsolid.co.uk"]ROQSOLID Website[/url] Very well made, Waterproof and hard wearing, just got one for my Genz Benz 2x12 and it is spot on ! If you send measurements, make sure its the actual dimensions of the cab, DO NOT add anything for fit, they will do that. Cheers Ade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Thought Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 +1 here for Roqsolid-I have some of theirs for my cabs, delighted with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zranyard Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 you can now buy mark bass covers, although im not sure which models you can buy them for. i have heard good things about roqsolid covers, chances are the mark ones will be way over priced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Roqsolid and Silverstone covers are top notch. Superb quality and excellent service. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 Thanks for the help guys. I've now ordered a couple from Roqsolid - they're all black..... .....but I've opted for the yellow stitching to match the Markbass colours! Nice one!!
