eude Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) Just bought myself an Ibanez Promethean combo, which I'm extremely happy with, but as usual, a suitable alternative comes along just after I've pulled the trigger! [url="http://www.carvinguitars.com/bassamps/microbass.php"]http://www.carvinguitars.com/bassamps/microbass.php[/url] What do you lot reckon? I've heard mixed views on the micro Carvin heads, but you can't argue with the bang for buck factor... No UK prices yet, but I'm sure as is commonplace, $ = £ with most cool bass stuff that's built in the US I love the look of that little MB10 combo, but I'm still chuffed with my Promethean, as it's smaller and louder The custom colours are a really cool addition I reckon.

wateroftyne Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Being this close [i]<-> [/i]to pulling the trigger on the Promethenentheanananthean, I'm intrigued by these. But then, with it being Carvin, it's probably less of a bargain by the time it gets to this side of the pond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More updates on the Promethean to come dude, will keep you posted as soon as there's more to report Eude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low End Bee Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I played through a Carvin BX500 when I sat in for a few numbers with a band in the States recently. Warm, loud and punchy. I was very impressed. Very portable too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
