    Gain vs Master settings on MarkBass combo amps

    As i've been reading lately the best way to approach getting a good tone from your bass is to start with the tone settings set to flat on the amp. With that said, what is the best starting point for the tone control settings on the bass itself?

    My Mark Bass Mini CMD 121 P is making funny sounds

    My Mark Bass Mini CMD 121 P is starting to make a slight distorted/rattle type sound on certain frequencies. I've only recently started to notice this. At first I thought it was my bass making a slight rattling sound so I checked on all 8 of my basses and it happens on all. Any ideas as to...
