My best friend just sold off his guitar rig so he could go back to playing bass, I tried to get him to grab an MB-1 but he doesnt share the love for old rack gear that we do here. Oh well...  :poop:

His loss  O:-)
+1  :thumb-up: , MB1s are awesome (not that I needed too much convincing LoL)

Good to go Primal,

    IF you can get your hands on the MXC Midi controller, a Quad Switch and a CCP pedal, you'll be able to open up the RTM functions in the MP-2.
    I disagree with Richard on the volume pedal function though, I wasn't very impressed with that function with the CCP, it works great with the Wah function though. I prefer to use a dedicated volume pedal with mine. The results are much smoother.

    @ Soloist: If you are talking about the one on ebay, I don't think that guy really wants to sell it. $500 + shipping is way too much for that.  :crazy:
I only have two brain cells left, ...and I'm saving them for the weekend!

@ Harley  that wasn't the one. I found one for $400 + shipping. Still too much :(

There is one on Reverb for $296 with almost $50 shipping.

At $160 I guess I got a good deal on mine!

   Even that is still a bit steep

In good condition with pedal set $500 AUD is (IMO) a fair price for MP2, so $160 USD (no pedals) is a good deal.  So while at $296USD = ~ $400 AUD is not a steal, it's still an ok price.  These were $2.5k AUD in their day. Shipping is always a killer though, particularly to Australia  :facepalm: .  Also you can't get transformers for them so one of mine is US voltage and I have to use a step down transformer with it, not ideal...

Hey Harley, I use the vol pedal all the time, I've never used it for wah, it's a bit stiff for that but for master vol I find it perfect.  Also it's attenuating (stereo) master vol, not input vol like standard vol pedals.
Now I'm mucking around with MB1s I really miss having the vol pedal.

Uh...I think this is the place for rig pix

Notice: I put the MP-2 in my big rack, for the big cabinet. The Classic is going to be paired with my Marshall 1x12 combo

Chucky

EMGs suck my energies.

How many units is that rack, looks really big ! How do you transport something like that?

With a dolly, because you won't have any friends to help you carry that thing!  :lol:

Soloist

I use 15 out of the 21 slots in that Grundorf rack.
It's on some heavy duty casters and rolls like a dream. We have a cube van with an electric lift gate for transporting our gear around, so no lifting involved!

Wow great, I thought my 16U rack was big.

So I see you use a lot of fx and preamps, what's your favorite one?

Soloist

My ADA MP1 is my favorite preamp. Nothing else sounds like an MP1!
I haven't spent enough time with the G-Force yet (still setting up patches for it).
Each fx unit has it's areas where it shines, but overall so far the G Major 2 has the best all around fx without over coloring my tone.
