  • New MusicMan amps

    Saw this mentioned on another forum, Ernie Ball & Mark Bass getting together to make new Music Man amps. Not sure if they will be like the old ones or completely new, I'm guessing something light weight with SMPS like the Mark Bass.
    Interesting article with some history here:
    Music Man Amps to Return | Tone Report

    Edit: title should read "Music Man"

    Well, that is certainly a nice little article to read, I like hearing the old stories.


    And I suspect you are right, these won;t be reissues of the old amps, but instead more a tip of the hat to the old ones, but modern design practice like SMPS.

    We'll find out.

      I'm very curious about the new amps, and very suspicious about the neo speakers, I own an old RD112 one hundred with a massive EV speaker and sounds great.

        The 5150 head weighs 48 pounds, the new MM head weighs 33 pounds. 15 pounds less sounds like no power transformer to me. I'll wait to see.
