Anyone own/used a Markbass LM 800?

I've got GAS and I've got it bad.

I've been looking into one of the Markbass LM800s for a little while now and every time I go to my local GC I play it. So far I love everything about it, the diversity of tones is just what I'm looking for, the DI is a big plus as far as recording/live performance goes, everything just sounds great.

HOWEVER...

I was almost as smitten with the Ampeg SVT7 Pro but after reading review after review of peoples 7's blowing up on them I've decided against it.

I was just wondering if anyone here had any horror OR success stories about their Little Mark 800 as the reviews are much more limited on Musiciansfriend, Harmony Central, etc.

Thanks :bassist:
