Finally landed IMO what is the greatest combo amp ever made. I had the mb500 and neo 4x10 that i found at a great deal and was made an offer i couldnt refuse. I loved the setup but always wanted to own another another one of these as i had the first version many years ago. Power, multiple speakers, and lightweight. Such a damn good amp! But since our loonie has fallen and usa gear is ridiculous here, $1200+13% tax! I jumped on this and made the long drive into Toronto and got it. $600 and since i sold the other setup for a big profit i now have power, portability, and hundreds of dollars in my pocket. Edit. Anyone know to remove grill? Dont want to ruin it. {}
Just realized last night the only gripe i had with my old model was fixed with a properly placed xlr output About time haha.
@shawshank72 , what settings do you like to use? I just got this same combo, plus the extention cab about a month ago. Just curious how others like to set theirs. The few times I've been able to fire mine up I've been setting the eq to "GK flat"ish, contour off, limiter and horns on. Then I tweak my bass from there. (Nordstrand 3 band eq with push pull mids pot)
Great amp. Used mine sat night. I haven't really touched my settings since I got it. Gain at ten o'clock Contour off Treble ten Mid eleven Low mid one Bass one Boost ten Master nine No limiter or horn Got a boost pedal (always on) HPF set at about 30Hz 72 P
Last night went great Horn off Limiter on Contour off Gain 10 oclock Volume noon Treble 11 HiMid 10 Low mid 1 Bass 12 Sounded full and punchy My other band im sure will change things as they play in a smaller room with a loud drummer.
What about the boost? Where was he set at? Pretty easy to carry too Drummer loaded mine out the other night and made a comment about the bass amp being lighter than the guitar amp, first time I've ever heard that out loud.
I ditched my mb500 and neo 4x10. Bought it at a cheap price and was made an offer i couldnt refuse. I loved it but this amp being so compact and ability to have amp in one hand and bass in the other is priceless. And i still get 500w into a 2x12.
