Just ordered mine in tobacco sunburst yesterday from MF. Wont see it till dec 11

I am told the drummer/bassist is Denny's son.

Local Neal Diamond tribute band,drummer plays drums and bass AND sings back up and he's very good!!!

As do I,plenty of power!

Yes I noticed this! I purchased a MB500 from Musicians Friend open box 3 weeks ago and last night was my 3rd gig and no problems.I hope it stays that way.....

I was in the market for a new amp head to go with my 410 4ohm cab and strongly considered the PF500. I have a friend in a local band and he was using the PF500. He had to replace the board at his own expense. Reliability is an issue with this PF series (made in China) and I just don't need the...
