If It was me, I would buy a Used Markbass 112 combo ($500), or 115 combo ($600), or if that sounds a bit high, check out the Jeff berlin players school combo, they go for $300 used and it's a 150/250 watt 1x15 combo that sounds wonderful and can take an extension cab as well, and use it as a...

Thanks for the replies. Problem is Buldog, is it's really hard to explore what I want, when I can't really explore many gear options other than what certain music stores stock. I have had many rigs that I have sounded great through, but I'm very hip to this light and portable revolution lately...

Ok so I currently am a Markbass user, but have gigged Eden, Ampeg, and Trace too, and will always love those old rigs. But currently, I'm living in a Markbass world, so my question very much revolves around the brand and it's products. But maybe you speaker guys can answer these questions. I...

Wow I'm intrigued, what a response. See that's all I wanted to do, gauge the crowds a little, thanks for the replies everyone. The DIY aspect definitely strikes a chord with me, as I was just considering doing my own build, and was looking into cab measurements, volume, all that stuff. Having a...

Don't jinx us! You and I both know Marco is color crazy, he'd make the speakers pink if he thought it would get him more attention. Yeah the green on the head and decal I can live with I guess, I played a ninja 122 through it's matching head and absolutely loved it. I'd say that cab has me...

Ok, so we all know TalkBass is super trendy, one of us sees another buy something and reads some testimonial " this amp/cab is great bla bla" and run out to buy/order said cab. We all have GAS. What is the deal with this fEARful stuff I keep seeing lately? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't...

Not that I care a ton about what I just caught in a video posted on the Mark bass official site, but it is a neat little catch, and could turn out to be a decent combo. 250w ninja 102p combo, it's bottom right in the vid. It looks to me like a Traveler 102p mixed with a little mark 250, similar...

Yeah, I wanted to use the VLE similar to the volume dial on the cabs. But I think I found the sweet spot, bout' 12:00 seems to simulate the cutoff.

I was wondering if anyone knew where the VLE cuts the crossover frequency of the tweeter? Like at 0 it's 20khz, but at 10 it's 250Hz, but where does this 3.5Khz cut exist on the dial? I have read many times that the VLE merely cuts the tweeter freq, and doesn't affect the actual LF driver/s in...

Cab sensitivity definitely plays a part, I noticed a huge volume increase, and as I said, I'm moving to that cab as soon as I can afford it. I like my combo, but the tweeter is not for me, I like the compression drivers alot better from Markbass. I fell in with MB with a JB combo, and that has...

Ok so hear me out. I've owned 2 MB combos, a 2013 Jeff Berlin , and my current 2007 CMD102p. I go to Guitar Center periodically to annoy the heck out of the whole place by playing every head and cab I can in the short time I'm there. Oh and yeah I try them all at gigging volume of course, but...

I'm not eligible to be in this club, that was taken from me by the lowest kind of thief out there. I started a thread since I was unable to post in the stolen Roscoe database, and found this thread after my post, but if you would take the time to read it real fast if you aren't busy I'd be...

Thanks Selta. I should have done this a long time ago, but I honestly didn't even consider this a option until it was suggested to me today. I keep looking up Roscoe basses, and any time I see a cobalt quilt LG I look it over to see if my marks are there. I had some very unique marks on the...

I had a question fellow bass players. I found a stolen Roscoe database thread but can't post in it. Any reason why that would be? I'm trying to narrow this mystery down of where my bass ended up. I just want closure, I'm sure someone owns it and paid thousands for it and I wouldn't expect to...

I could have some fun with that! Kinda looks like something Alain Caron would play. I had a Roscoe skyscraper 5 string fretless I found used in a Buddy Rogers in Cincinnati that I played for a while. I tired incorporating it with all music, but eventually just got a fretted one. ( man it sounded...
