Bass Amp Comparison - Rumble Vs MarkBass

[@tracychappell2029]

I liked the MarkBaas first time I listened but just listened again and now I am liking the Fender Rumble 500 best.

[@theprezenz]

I actually liked the 500, perhaps even better than MB, based on the mic recording.

[@digitalreign7485]

Thanks for watching. The 500 does sound really good to my ears as well and is what I’m now using live.

[@theprezenz]

@@digitalreign7485 does it goes louder than the mb 102? Is it true that the master volume afects the DI out volume as well?

[@digitalreign7485]

@@theprezenz All three of these amps are impressively loud. I didn’t crank them up to compare all the way. No real reason too. Volume will not be an issue though. No noticeable drop in volume either when using the DI out. Cheers!

[@theprezenz]

@@digitalreign7485 thx!

[@tracychappell2029]

I liked the crispy tone of the MarkBass CMD 102 the best. They all sound good though.

[@digitalreign7485]

Thanks for watching!

[@lennymo9088]

My ears like Fender Rumble 350 the most. The other two sound good. Mark Bass sounds brittle & crunchy to me. New Rumble sounds compressed like most Class D combos. Thanks for posting.

[@digitalreign7485]

Thanks for your input. Cheers!

ใช่ฉันฟังมันเพราะดี ส่วนตัวฉันมี Rumble150 ฉันประทับใจมาก

[@Myfirespraygunship]

Rumble 500 all the way on this one. I listened to each clip with headphones without looking.

[@oliverjohn2633]

The way you eqd the mb sounded like there was barely any bass in it on the clean sound. Ive used markbass amps for awhile now so obviously id choose the mb but the fender bass amps arent anything to shake your head at they sound great.

Dios, es el sonido del menú de Crash, sabía que se me hacía familiar

[@robertocotelli3654]

Your fingers are gold😮😮😮😮😮

[@digitalreign7485]

Ha! Appreciate the kind words. Hope the video was useful for you. Cheers!

[@steveelliott5643]

Thanks, I run a rumble 500 with ext fender 1x15 cab,the mids and lows do the job,but the higher notes up the frets have a noticeable lack of sustain compared to valve amps.Using Fender jazz 2016?I think

[@michaelratzloff5879]

We already know it's MarkBass all the way. Of course, I may be biased from all the money I've dropped on them. Nice vid. Reminds me why the Rumble 350 was my second choice.

[@digitalreign7485]

Shocker Mikey you would pick the MarkBass Mikey. ;)

[@christocr]

Do we? I bought a Markbass and returned it a week later. Been using a Fender Rumble 500 and Fender 2x10 extention cab. Sounds way better to my ears. I have compared my Rumble to a Genzler rig. I did like the Genzler slightly more than my Rumble (mainly for its slightly sharper attack and clarity)... but not $2000 worth more. I would also love to compare to a Mesa Boogie rig. But as for Markbass... no, I just do not like the sound of Markbass amps I've tried or heard here on KZbin. For me and the way I play bass and what I want to hear out of my bass, just not a good match. I know they are quality amps and a lot of players swoon over them, but just not my thing I guess.

рамбл 500 реально крутая тема, играл на нём недавно теперь хочется

[@Alexmayor007]

Valdra la pena cambiar mi rumble 500 por el markbass mb58r cmd 102 pure ?

[@seijirou302]

I wouldn't want to record the 500 in any of those examples. The Mark Bass sounded awful clean, but sounded the best distorted on just the mic. The 350 sounded the best clean, not just the best but the best by a mile, and with the DI sounded just as good as the Mark Bass distorted. The octave sounded like crap on all of them, but that's to be blamed on the pedal IMO so I'd just throw that test out. That leaves the 350 as the clear winner to my ears.

[@praiha]

The cleans sound somewhat brittle and lower volume with Markbass, is it less compressed? I wanted to like MB most, because I own a 2x10 Ninja 500 combo, but honestly it sounded the worst here

[@digitalreign7485]

We’ll maybe worst isn’t the way to look at it. Perhaps you prefer the rounder sounds of the Fender. Also realize I dialed in the tones for where I felt they sounded best. Cheers!

[@al76groovekeeper]

Which gets the loudest

[@digitalreign7485]

We’ll the rumble is 500 watts so in theory it would be the loudest. In reality you would never need to crank any of them all the way up since you would be connected directly to the mixing desk. You only need enough stage volume. Cheers!

[@anizato]

damn.. the fender 350 has a certain punch. specially when it is DI with the octave. it sounds clean

[@weskoons4820]

Comparing that MB to those fender’s should be illegal lol

[@chasebraswell6948]

HA!!!! The BASS-ment.......I get it 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@digitalreign7485]

Nice!

[@drewjeers815]

Let me get my magnifying glass. I never pass up a chance to read on KZbin.

[@TheBassfresh]

Rumble 500 all day. MB has an anemic tone.

[@TommyLuptak]

Watts is work and doesn’t donate the SPL. 😊😉 An inefficient 10 will require way more watts to be as loud as an efficient 10. 😊

[@fernandozamora5475]

My ears like fender Rumble 500

[@pegasus9536]

its too clean

[@Score1more]

The mark sounds brighter

[@digitalreign7485]

Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback!

[@mainsblanches8793]

The 350 sounds best to me, but the only problem is the weight!...65 pounds!...

[@digitalreign7485]

Ha! So true. I do dig the tone of that amp. Cheers!

[@zseeley]

Argh! I have my opinion from listening to my spearkers...and my diminishing ears... However, I wanted your opinion. I liked the Mark. Not fond of any of the D.I. INPUT sounds compared to the mic'd sound.

[@digitalreign7485]

I think they all have their place. Speakers can make a big difference as well. I didn’t really hear anything truly amazing different from the mark to the fender. That being said, if you want a bit more fine tuning the Mark bass amp has a bit more tweak ability in that regard.nothing that a good eq pedal couldn’t help with though. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@Trailerdudimanche]

I realy don't like the Markbass. Perhaps because of the neodymium magnet. I think all neodymium magnets sounds realy bad !

[@JeanV1986]

My MB58R 210 doesn't sound anything like that, and it has neo speakers.

[@CC-fi3pp]

Markbass anyone saying otherwise is a bit daft.

[@AbelHinojosaArias-hi4xl]

Suena mejor el rumble 500 👍

[@AbelHinojosaArias-hi4xl]

Ese mark bass distorciona y se oye sucio 👎
