Markbass on the way...I'm stoked!

Gotta tell somebody. I just scored a used Markbass SD800 from GC in Cleveland for $450 shipped! No bag, but hey...$450! Figured it's a no-brainer at that price. And hey, I can always sell it and get my money back if I hate it.

It'll sure beat toting around my 40-pound pre/power rack or my B1500.

You can, but you usually have to call them. I got an F1 for 400 bucks from them last year.

Down side is they charge you sales tax if you call the store to order it.

Nice score for about $0.50 per watt. Still way more expensive per watt than our B1500s but way to go.

So true!

But I'll bet I can flip it without losing my shirt. Can't seem to do that w/the B1500 ATM.....

Okay, so the Internet sez the Brown Monkeys left my amp on the front porch. Sure hope it's there when somebody gets home.

Plan to do a comparison against my B1500 tomorrow. I'm off tomorrow and I've got the whole house to myself all day long.
