Well, well! What have we here? Markbass?

[RitchieDarling]

And so ends the era of the Ampeg for the Darling clan.

I KNEW this would happen.

o u so CRAZY

Those amps are the most piercing, fast tracking amps I have heard. If you like to throw in the occasional triplet this amp will reproduce it loud and clear. Congrats

 

[maddog]

something is telling me I need to make a trip to phoenix. What did they have in stock?

 

[silverburst]

No regrets Ritchie. That amp is worth every penny.

 

[Bill]

Cool!

 

[Kirby]

Ritchie, let us know your thoughts and how you like it. I am seriously considering that combo or just a Little Mark II with a 4x10 double ported. I have not played the combo yet, but the separates were slammin. I am dumping my Eden 4x10 for the Markbass.

Thanks!

Do you mean like this.

 

[Kirby]

Yes, that is it exactly. Have you used the DI on the Markbass? I am wondering if I will need my Demeter tube DI to use with the Little Mark II.

 

[adouglas]

Uh oh.

Are we going to start seeing a running string of Markbass acquisitions?

I mean, you need an amp to go with each bass, right?

 

[Big Poppa]

I am so happy for Marco at Mark Bass. Here is a guy who has busted his butt to move bas amplification forward. Tone for days and chiropractor friendly!

 

[Psycho Ward]

Congrats Ritchie you're going to love it!

I also must point out for those who also play keyboards, the MarkBass amps totally ROCK for keyboard applications! I put one in my keyboard rack, all I have to do now is decide how many speaker cabs to bring.

Sorry Kirby, I haven't DI'd the LMII yet. However, I can't imagine that there would be any problems. This is great gear!

 

[RitchieDarling]

Now I just have to unload this great huge Ampeg thing!

The wife is happy the Markbass is smaller. Takes up much less room in the house!

GC had a fair bit of stuff. But I only focused on the combo. I do need to get a 4X10 or 1X15 to go under it though.

Nu-uh!

Thanks! A little insanity never hurt nobody.

The throw on the cones is INSANE! I like the VLE knob. I can sound like an old SVT and not break my back lugging one around!

something is telling me I need to make a trip to phoenix. What did they have in stock?

This was the last 102P they had. But, lots of LMIIs and a couple smaller combos. I'm glad I went in. Even though I did sign up for the GC card. 12 months same as cash.

BP, I just fired off an email to Marco via the Markbass website. Hope he gets it! Big kudos all around! (Linguistically incorrect, but you know what I mean!)

Congrats Ritchie you're going to love it!

Nice! I might have to buy another for my synth pedals!

I was not really wanting to drive down. It's like 3 hours to get there. But our drummer wanted to go as well. So, I went. I'm glad I did!

[OnlyMe]

Congrats on the 102P, Ritchie!! Today, I had the same combo delivered Thought I'd get my 20th SR5 a little welcome gift for when it gets here aroudn july-aug. Can't wait to try the comination of the two

 

[LowDownDave]

You're right, even my girlfriend approved of the MarkBass gear once she saw how small it was compared to my previous cab, I wonder whether Marco should consider using such an angle to promote his stuff.

"Markbass... even your non-bass-playing partner will love it!"

There aren't too many amp/cab manufacturers that can boast as much! And as for the "throw" on the speakers, I wonder whether it really is greater on the Markbass gear, or whether it just looks that way because you can more easily see the movement of the yellow/orange cones? Hmmmmm...

Oh yes, indeed you do.

 

[TSanders]

SWEET Ritchie. That MarkBass stuff sure sounds amazing.
