Sign in to disble this ad
Hey all! Frankly I have not decided between these two.. This would be paired with a 4x10 Hartke Hydrive.. i'm into modern sound and i don't care too mucho about power.. 300watts it's enough!! Both costs the same, Both have great reviews.. Help me make the rigth decision
Thanks,

Dany

After years of Markbass being my primary amp I switched to Genz Benz. I find GB to be more flexible, doing everything MB can do and more. At first MB was moved to backup role, then, when I got my second GB, MB went up for sale.

Both great brands, ultimately personal preference at the end of the day.

Really, you can only make this choice after playing both amps- as it's just a matter of personal preference. All anyone else can do for you is tell you which THEY'D prefer.

GB has top notch customer service so that would push me in that direction. However, ultimately I am more of a markbass guy. The tone just works better for me. Although power is not an issue for you, I will say having owned the shuttle 6 the mb 800 will be vastly more powerful.
