Markbass amp ordered

I ordered a Markbass LM2 from the nearest GC that carried it. Should be here in a day or two. $599 list US, plus $15 to ship. Have an outdoor festival gig in 2 weeks, so looking forward to trying it. Will be running it thru an Avatar 112, 4 ohm, so I will get the power. Previously used the behringer 350 head. Will let you all know my impressions.

If you don't like it you need new ears!

Let us know how you like it. That's pretty cheap shipping.

+1 on the Markbass, you should be very pleased. Go to the Ernie Ball Forum and search in the bass section and you will see a lot of very satisfied Markbass users.

OK, loving the Markbass. Granted, I went from a Behringer to a Markbass. Clean is the word I would use for the tone of this amp. I play electric bass and acoustic upright bass in a "new acoustic/americana" band. Even the band members noticed the change in tone. I played at an outdoor festival last weekend and it was more than adequate for sound re-enforcement. I am running it thru an Avatar 112 4ohm cab. YMMV but I am very happy with the amp as a mid level priced amp.

It also competes quite favorably againt much higher priced boutique amps, such as Walter Woods and Epifani, to name just two such amps.
