      Markbass CMD 151P Jeff Berlin Signature 300W 1x15 Bass Combo Amp (481796)
Availability:  


Designed by legendary bass soloist Jeff Berlin.

Jeff Berlin teamed up with Markbass to create this sweet signature bass combo amp, the CMD 151P. Jeff is a master bass soloist who has been playing with some of the greats for the past 30 years, including Isaac Hayes, Bill Buford, John Mclaughlin, and the Brecker Brothers, just to name a few.

Like the other CMD amp models, the 151 combo has a built-in Little Mark II preamp to help you achieve your own signature sound. The Markbass CMD 151 also has 4-band EQ and VLE (Vintage Loudspeaker Emulator) and VPF (Variable Pre-shape Filter) filters. Unlike other bass amplifiers, the Markbass CMD 151 has no tweeter. Jeff doesn't believe in them. And if you listen to any of his performances, you'll notice there's nothing missing in his sound. The 400W 15" B&C speaker will give you all the sound you need with a tone you'll find impeccably unique and warm. Just like Jeff Berlin's playing.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

  • cmd151p

    As reviewed by tony on 6/3/2009

    I bought this amp a few months ago. I am really satisfied with the performance. I have been playing bass over 35 years and gigging out almost as long. I have a few great amps and bottoms, but nothing this compact and capable. I am old school, I like a lot of bottom. This little amp gives me that... at volume. I am also an "old guy" so lifting SVT bottoms and V-4 heads is out. The amp is light enough to carry in one hand and the bass in the other. Less trips to make at the end of the night. An interesting fact is, that on Wednesdays I am in the house band of an open mike. The amp gets used by a lot of different players. Some are great, some average and some are knuckleheads. The amp delivers for all different kinds of music, from country to metal. Knock on wood, it has taken some abuse and is still reliable.

  • Bass O'plenty

    As reviewed by Jason on 4/2/2010

    Looked at, read reviews, and played almost everything in my price range over the course of a year and this was at the very top of my price range. Not matter what I thought I had settled on, I always came back to Markbass. Played the CMD 102, a 750w halfstack, and the Jeff Berlin 151. The low end on this thing is awesome, and the tone is like non other. I cant' wait till I get a chance to plug in another 15" cab under it. BOOM'in!!

  • Markbass CMD 151P Jeff Berlin Signature

    As reviewed by MIKE GREEN on 9/29/2011

    I needed a new bass amp and read the reviews on all the Markbass products. The ratings all seamed consistently high so I checked it out at my local GC. I tried the Markbass CMD 102P because it was all they had on the floor in what I was most interested in. It really did sound as good as all the reviews claimed. I play a 6 string bass and it sounded great on all strings except the low B. It seemed to rattled a little to much for me. It might have been because it was the demo. So I took a chance and ordered the Jeff Berlin knowing I could return it if I wasn't satisfied. Well the 15" handles the low B no problem and is clear on all the mids and highs. It cut right through the mix at church during praise and worship up against a hard playing drummer and two guitarist using 60 watt tube amps cranked. I was only half way up on the master and gain. I'm very satisfied so far and have no intentions of returning it. It is built solid and very light. I think they are just a bit over priced, but I would purchase and extension cab if I needed it.
