Markbass... Yes, they've started making basses too

The only thing I don't like about MB currently is their pricing. ..... they moved manufacturing to Indonesia and kept their pricing the same...

Go bash in an Ampeg thread and see what happens.

(Quote edited for clarity.)

Um, Ampeg did the same thing when they moved, first to Vietnam, then to China. ;)

Luckily , I got my 210 combo and extension cab back in 2008 for less than $1000.00 total. The combo has done at least 3 gigs a week for 10 years and hasn't hiccuped once.



I won't bash any product or brand unless I've tried it personally, and even then I'd just say " It's not for me". MB is the favorite bashbrand of TB. Go bash in an Ampeg thread and see what happens. :thumbsup:



The fact that they moved manufacturing to Indonesia and kept their pricing the same DOES make it unlikely that I will purchase from them again.
That's a great idea! Thank you. I will go bash Ampeg now. :thumbsup:

.....oooh. Didn't Ampeg move their production to Indonesia too? But that didn't work out. So they moved part of it to Vietnam. Right?

I wonder what ever became of that Ampeg factory in Indonesia?

Anyway.... off to the Ampeg threads:thumbsup:
 
That is the best I can do.
