New Used Cab Day - NY 151 RJ
So I got a fair CL deal on a pretty clean Markbass Randy Jackson 15. At 37lbs., it’s light enough to schlepp with one hand. It fits nicely under my CMD 121p combo but I think it sounds a little better with my GK 700rbii.
The sound at low to medium levels is fantastic. Solid lows, pleasing mids, and clean highs with the tweeter. I had it with my CMD combo on a jazz upright gig yesterday and it sounded very good. The real test will be if this thing can stand alone on a louder blues or reggae gig.
The tolex is in pretty good shape - but the corners are interesting. They’re leather and tacked on. I’ve got two that already came off. Gonna need to visit a craft store for some replacement tacks and a bottle of heavy duty gorilla glue.
Anybody else gig on one of these? I might try to find a matching RJ cab - or maybe trade for a regular NY 151 to better match my 121 cabs.
