EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot half the planet owns a Markbass something or other. Carry on.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: White Plains | | | GK (800RB, 2001RB, MB500...possibly MB800)
GB (Streamliner 900)
Mesa (Walkabout, previously M2K Basis)
Ampeg (SVP-CL, SVP-Pro)
Aguilar (GS112's, previously a DB 359)
Bag End (S15D's)
GK and Bag End is my primary gigging rig. I'll use the other stuff for different sounds when I feel like changing it up.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Fort Collins, Colorado | | | I sold all the heavy, old stuff and bought a Genz-Benz Shuttle 6.0 12T combo. Added a 2x10 Shuttle cab. Now I can walk in with 32 pounds (cab and amp) in one hand, 36 (2x10) in the other, and have 600 watts peak power to stun the audience.
IMO Genz-Benz rules the OTHER category!

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2009 Location: Charlottesville, Virginia | | | I started out with a terrible Crate amp. Now I have a GK MB210 combo, and I love it. It doesn't have the classic tone of an Ampeg, but its sound is perfect for my band (just drums, bass and acoustic guitar). It's powerful, sounds great at every volume level, and I can easily carry it with one hand. Hell, I can carry it with one finger.
I'm sure the day will come when my tonal preference has changed and I'll want something else, but for now, this amp is perfect for me.
