Markbass CMB 40 Blackline CMB 101

The Markbass CMB 40 Blackline: the practice combo that sounds like a Markbass, even for €249

The CMB 40 Blackline is the smallest combo in the Markbass Blackline series, and it proves that good sound doesn't have to be expensive. Compact, light, and portable, with the characteristic Markbass tone that you'll also find in the professional series. Whether you're practicing in your bedroom or going to your first rehearsal, the CMB 40 fits everywhere.

With 40 watts and a 10" speaker, the CMB 40 sounds surprisingly full for its size. The four-band EQ with two mid-controls gives you real tone control, while the Scooped switch provides extra clarity in the highs and the Boost switch adds a slight saturation. The headphone output and aux input make it ideal for silent practice sessions with backing tracks, and the preamp output allows connection to a mixer or PA.

The CMB 40 Blackline delivers 40W via a 10" speaker. Connections include Instrument In, Aux In, Headphone Out, and Preamp Out. Control via four-band EQ, Scooped and Boost switches. Dimensions: 37.5 x 36.5 x 27 cm, weight: 9.7 kg. A practice combo that won't frustrate you, but inspire you.
