• Get this amp!

  If you want a small bass amp to practice on, this is it, it has a punchy low end but the amp also produces high pitches beautifully. Not to be bought as a main rig, but great for practice

• who says dont buy a markbass?

  
  As reviewed by daniel lee on 12/27/2010

  i have been playing in all types of venues for over 30 years, and have bought, used, sold, and tried out pretty much every bass amp out there. in my opinion, markbass is the best, for all around different types of music. one reviewer says they sound like crap. well he needs to start by looking at what kind of bass he is using through it. markbass gives the true sound of whatever bass you use through it. my modulus sounds completely different than my jazz bass. so he or she must have a cheaper bass guitar. of course this small bass amp is just for practice, not a gig out in front of 200 people. use common sense folks. try a 410 cab, with one of their new 2 channel momark heads and then write a review. i know it will be a great one. markbass amps and heads are handwired, and very dependable. ive used mine for 2 years, and my new one for 6 months, and never, never had a problem. none whatsoever. so try a markbass at your local guitar center. they will give you anything from a classic sound to a funk sound to a country sound, and anything else you need. i dare you to try one.

• A solid amp in a tiny box

  
  As reviewed by Jeff on 3/3/2011

  I bought one and returned it for the more expensive 2x6 version, then swapped back as I felt I really didn't gain much. This amp gives a nice, deep, clean tone for its size that shocks people when they see it. It only starts to lose focus as I near a low B on a 5 string, but still pulls it off. It is strong enough to cut through a guitar or two and perfect for augmenting an acoustic bass. A little more money than you basic bedroom amp perhaps but the size means it can be set in a bookshelf, and it will retain its resale value because of its quality so I don't mind the premium. For something that you can easily take anywhere, use anywhere and sound good at the same time, this little performer can't be beat. I am interested to hear their new 8" version though, that might be the perfect practice amp. That would be one you could perform some venues with if their other amps are any indication of what it will do.
