I saw people has mentioned them before and it sounds perfect for me,except the price.. It's a little less than what I payed for my mini mark 121combo amp. How light is it? It looks very very cool.

I would just use it to practice at home or if it's light enough, bring it to rehearsal if needed. I have a mini mark bass 121combo that I love and use for gigs. I'm wondering if I really need a practice amp or if it will be more a luxury. It'd have to be light weight, good sounding and affordable.

My Fender Jazz Bass though recently i ve been using my Ampeg Baby Bass. It sounds great..

OK I'll try this again, what is the best lightweight, portable practice amp for upright and bass guitar??

What is the better practice amp for upright and bass guitar- the Ampeg 35 watt or the Fender Rumble 35 watt? Also, would there be a huge difference between a 25 watt as opposed to a 35 watt in overall sound? Ampeg also offers a 25 watt amp.

Fantastic job yesterday! It was so very thoughtful of you to come all that way to share your Jim story. He touched so so many.. It's kind of cool now that all his students are somewhat bonded together in one great "JK" club... What an honor. If I can be half the teacher to my students as Jim...

How cool of you to drive all that way to be there on Weds. Pat mentioned that one of Jim's former students would be coming up from NC to speak. We'll be sure to spot each other as I am going to speaking also. I look forward to meeting you. Please drive safe and I'll see you on Weds.

That was no where near long winded- it was perfect! Like I stated in my post, I had the privilege of having Jim as my mentor a friend for three years, the last half while he was fighting his cancer. Like you, some of my best moments with Jim were when we were just hanging. Lucky for me I was...

I had the great honor to be one of his private students these last three years. I believed he played more DB than BG over the years but due to the side effects of the chemo it became easier for him to play BG in the end. He was a very talented and generous musician and the best teacher I've ever...

Sorry, meant to say - no need for a pre amp.......

I play my Kay upright through the Markbass mini combo 121 amp and I Love it! Warm pure bass sound and no need for a pick up. In fact I just played a fundraiser gig with my jazz combo group and a veteran bass player who was in attendance made a point to come to talk to me about my sound and my...
