UTILIZATION

The config could not be simpler. No need for manual ...
The sound is excellent, I played with everything from scratch, using mostly the preamp three bands of my basses.
By moving the settings, you can easily refine, and this can be radical if we push the equalizer.

SOUNDS

It suits my style (jazz-funk, bop, etc ...).
I find it very transparent, I play a warwick with Markbass NY Cab P 121 and the record is fabulous!
Bandwidth is enormous, the config Octaver the cash without flinching, knowing that with my streamer stage II, there's 24 db bass ...
Such, the bass is accurate, singing, flawless, we can sculpt the sound as you want (I did not on my equalizer against ^ ^).
Beyond my style of music, I had paid (head + cabinet) to a friend for a rock concert ... She was thrilled! So I think we can say that it is versatile, it does what it says to do!

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a year since I use it, I'm a big fan of Markbass amplification.
I like:
_the light
_the power
_the transparency
_The Manufacturing quality
_the robustness

I am disappointed:
_l'absence Headphone

It is found for cheap in Cygnus, and well worth it! In all cases, the value for money is very good, even in nine (a bit expensive but the quality is there!)
I do it again this choice? YES, definitely!

Preamp Transistor 300 W into 8 ohms, 500 W 4 ohms!
On or may well get that power such a small thing lol?

2 speakers output, line etc ... in short everything you need!

Rglages basics, but effective: low / mid low / mid high / high / VLE (vintage sound) / FFT (boost the bass and treble while cutting mids!).
Although sr Master and Gain (for the potato!)

UTILIZATION

Whaaaa ... one connects and rings!

This gives a good sound condition to have a good instrument, the head restores enough Fidler grain of each low, without the color ..

The manual is not essential, but useful if one wants to connatre the technical aspects of the head

SOUNDS

I play jazz, rock, funk, pop etc. ... This head is superb and lug around everywhere!
I use a jazz bass with us and Leduc: a trs trs sounds good.
This head is quite useful to have a "sound" and crystalline fat at the same time (FFT), which is a good point.

OVERALL OPINION

APRs have resold THE FIRST Little Mark, I finally fell for the second Mark Little (more lgre, more powerful FFT)!
That said, his attention because it lgret MRIT weak ..
Apart from a, the product remains the most accessible of the range and versatile trs ..
a test!

UTILIZATION

The ultra-quiet fan, it's rare

settings ultra simple, enormous opportunities

you play one minute on the set and it sounds!

SOUNDS

With a 4x10 markbass you are sure to have the sound
the fender sound, the Ibanez sound, everything sounds, even low-end models (and yet, it's not a head to flatter your sound, it respects the original sound of your bass)

OVERALL OPINION

I tested many heads, even at exorbitant prices: swr, ampeg, warwick, mesa

I was in a room with all heads and I was testing for 40 minutes and then I saw this little head Little Mark II, I decided to plug it before I go, I played five notes, I stopped and I bought it immediately. Madness! it is unfortunate that this brand is not better known and sold!
Recommend with eyes closed

Transistor amplifier
300W @ 8ohm / 500W @ 4ohms
on the back: in / out effects loop, tuner output, DI, 1 + 1 Speakon jack for the speaker.
front: instrument input jack + XLR, gain, 4 band EQ, VLE (Vintage speaker simulation), FFT (filter digging mediums) on / off ...

UTILIZATION

The front is decorated with eight pots, you can not simple. One branch, all eq settings at noon, and it sounds. No, forgiveness CA SONNE! The settings are, as I said before, simple and good sound to go. The manual is ... short. But no need for manual, it's really a breeze.

SOUNDS

I type a little in all styles (funk, metal, rock, prog, wedding music (he is ... lol)) and how I play it plays its role perfectly. The VLE produces a warm sound ideal for blues or rock while playing in the VPF can get a slap in the devil. Whatever the setting the sound is clean, even at quite significant volumes (the mature remember!).
I use a Warwick Streamer LX Jazzman, a Schecter Stiletto Custom 5 and a baffle 410 EBS.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months, but after going through a trace elliot and Hartke, I was amazed. I paid 630eur shipping costs included on Music Store but it's was worth the effort. This choice I would do without hesitation.

See the reviews for the previous description, I think everything has t say =)

UTILIZATION

Amp over easy to use and super effective, no need to dig this head for 1 hour to get his sought-.
the manual is useless unless it has reached the Alzheimer's disease.

SOUNDS

Professional bassist for over 10 years, I've always strong advocate of t tube amps, and for the first time I fell for every one amp transistors, and frankly I do not regret it, the sound of this head is surprising efficiency of the power is there, no problem it spits oO
fine and precise, the result is a search within minutes or even seconds: D
really very good stuff ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this amp head with his backpack markbass tailored for the head. I will say that this bag-a-dos markbass is just great:
it is well padded and made so that the head stay in his little bag use: there have to fix a scrashs of the carpet in the baffle, air vents on the cot for warmth, in short, I can not spell even over the head of his bag, while a t pens to let in
as a result, the somewhat frail of the head disappears ^ ^
I love the weight and size of the amp and practice with the cot-a-bag back, my back thanks me, my ears too, I just signed in markbass for a couple of years I think (if you know what I mean).
Brief 10/10 all the way, bravo markbass.

See previous opinion

UTILIZATION

- The configuration is it simple? - Gets it easy to sound good?
One branch, we play with the knobs for EQ ts noon and 2 filters and the sound is 0 dej l (it is obviously playing with a bass worthy of the name and not a pick with my jazz bass Marcus Miller and my expression more noguera Fretless sound is the!)
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
The manual tells us how to walk the 2 filters and magic VLE VLF more details

SOUNDS

- Is it your style of music?
APRS 2d intense testing on all styles of music (except metal ...) with heads of different techniques involved (Slap, tapping, artificial harmonics ...) we can say that this head is magic and totally go anywhere
- With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
A Fender Marcus Miller Jazz Bass (with Sadowsky preamp) and an expression more fretless noguera
- What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
We can go through all the sounds you can imagine, we pass from the McCartney in his Miller 3sec, sound Clarke's Pasto etc ...
- What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest?
I often play with a bit of VLF and med drop down it gives a slamming his wish

OVERALL OPINION

2d intense: D
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
Power / size and weight, versatility and range of sounds
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
A head Hartke HA-3500 I find crap and head of EBS 350W impeccable ms expensive and cumbersome

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
After a few concerts I will advise on this issue

- Transistors

- 500W/4ohms, 300/8ohms

- Faade front jack and XLR, rear TUNER + FX SEND and RETURN jacks, line out XLR and Speakon

- Ultra simple with two buttons and VPF filters VLE

UTILIZATION

The config very very simple. You plug the bass, we put it all afternoon and it was the SOUND.
No need for manual ringing

SOUNDS

Is it your style of music?
It is suitable for all styles of music (at least can be a metal ... see). I do jazz, blues, rock and variety in several groups and have a huge sound. So much so that a lot of friends want to convert to bass MARK BASS.

With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I play with a Fender Mex, the LMKII and a baffle 211 WARWICK no effect.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
I use it extensively for 6 months and I am happy and satistfait. The head is small, Legris, practical, compact, short ... AMAZING.
Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
I had tried before the LMK Hartke (bof) AMPEG V4B 100w lamps (great but bulky and heavy), AMPEG transistor (blah, blah), Fender, G & K, but the head that m ' seduced!
How do you report qualitprix?
It's expensive, but it's worth every penny!!

Exprience with, you will do again this choice?
YES

- What kind of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)?
Transistors
- What is the power dlivre?
500watts (4Ώ) or 300watts (8Ώ)
- What connection?
Between Jack and XLR. The gain for both walking (so we can connect a microphone for example).
For output: there is an exit Jack / Speakon Neutrick (green; in the center of the plug Speakon, we can put a Jack!) And an output jack deuxime.
- What are the rglages the effects? ...
LOW 40 Hz
LOW MID 360 Hz
HIGH MID 800 Hz
HIGH 10 kHz shelf
VPF (Variable Pre-shape Filter)
center frequency 380 Hz (cut)
VLE (Vintage Loudspeaker Emulator)
frequency range 250 kHz HZ20 (cut)

+ Or - 16 Dcibel the qualisation! (This is not 6db Behr)
There is also a lift to the groud XLR

In short, there everything you need, nothing less. AND THE WEIGHT! bliss

UTILIZATION

- The configuration is it simple?
Bah, you plug, play and sounds ...
- Gets it easy to sound good?
The sound is gnial the first time. Cel said, it takes time to find his sound. At worst, it was a clean and enjoyable but charcun fetches his personality.
- The manual is clear and sufficient?
Oh well trs, he learned many things. I read it to sleep but in fact it is trs INTERESTED. Finally, even if you can zap qq mm play.

For beginners looking for a great sound, you just put all the pots up, equalization is to say non-existent and VLE and VPF half (because both the inactive and not milieur 0 and everyone made the mistake).

SOUNDS

- Is it your style of music?
I think it was going with all, honest. According to the equalization and vle FFT, we can move from its punk sound of traditional African music.
- With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I have an Ibanez BTB405 is to say active volume but without much personality.
Also, a Yamaha RBX270 Fretless, passive CHRE not.
For both, a great sound.
The cabinet is a 4x10 "Ashdown MAG410T.
- What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
The sound is you who does.
- What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest?
It's the style. To the big rock, I add a box and I enlve a Low Mid Low

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
I have been using 4-5months
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
I love the XLR in faade because I begins with an ART Tube MP prampli lamps giving a lot of heat for 40.
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
AMPEG, Hartke, Peavey, GENZ BENZ ...
- How do you report qualitprix?
Trs good, I remember that we are tappe qq mm in the high end. Music purchased 625 Ferr Grenoble
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
No hsiation YES

Just one thing: mfiance!
Markbass is a formidable weapon of (bad) sellers. They connect you to a low 150 Markbass 12 "So one said it's not a great amp but it is. The bass will sound of thunder and you'll want to buy it. So never buy a bass that you test Markbass. Salespeople who know Markbass have understood the trick!

- Full transistor (pramp + amp)

- 500W @ 4ohms, 300W @ 8ohms

- Complte connection but no frills, economy of space oblige!: XLR or jack instrument, Neutrik Speakon output jack and (Too bad it is not full neutrik ...) line out XLR output only ( and for those who only have jacks?: s) with ground lift, tuner out and effects loop! by output or between pramp / amp

- Rglages: gain, low mid, high mid, low, high, STEL, VPF, master

I put 9 because the key is there, but it is not as complete as a GK of the same price for example!

UTILIZATION

- Intuitive configuration, it's really simple, no warm-up time (no lights!), You plug the speakers, you plug the bass and it plays!

- A flat, without the famous filters, the sound is perfectly neutral, according to the letter the bass! Not touch the qualisation, just playing with filters, you get any sound!

Manual-, um I did not read it yet, but I did!

SOUNDS

- Now in a group of pop folk, to be 100% his research!

- Jou with warwick std bubinga with 5c pramp Sadowsky

- This is the highlight of the head, you can get any sound, sound infra vintage bold percussive slap in the crystal clear sound modern, we can REALLY do anything with a head like this one! Must Note that all of the same versatility certainly there, but there is no grain SPECIFICATIONS, or else trslger (rather audible in use with baffles markbass, but with transparent baffles me, I ' have the nemesis, the head does not color the sound of a hair!) so that people looking for something prcis (snoring like a chubby vintage ampeg) do not find their account can be!

OVERALL OPINION

- So I did that yesterday, but he shot a lot, which in RPET, I'll do one up for you to share the evolution of my feelings on this stuff!

- I REALLY like the portable cot, 2.6 KG for an amp head to clean out as much, frankly it's a Panard not possible! I carry in the softcase markbass and it was the Panard, ca does not look, you think more like a 125W than a 500W, but it REALLY kiffa such lgeretla second thing, it's still respect for the instrument and the quality of amplification, with the VLE and VPF filters can REALLY kick all sounds! for what I like least, I must use a road, the look can be a little "soft"!

- I was playing before a REFERENCE amplification, the AMPEG SVT3PRO, which I intend Sparer me! Indeed it was not appropriate at all to my low compressing sound REALLY too, and I lost power REALLY! the Hartke I tried too, but the quality of HA3500 pramp silent very limited and the quality of qualisation also (I turn the button one position, I hear a diffrence!)

- I consider the report qualitprix dfiant any questions you may indeed make Gallien Krueger heads in the same spirit but it's heavy and cumbersome, Genz Benz is much colder and it does not allow such versatility, and the rest is much more expensive (I think notament Eden remains the only brand I think REALLY concurrent MB)

- I doubt that after I know if the 1d exprience is usable, which I know is that when a bass like me possde overboosted active and we are looking The sound of his bass, then you have to take something friendly, I did not want to put an astronomical sum, I tried markbass, and I t bluff!

up in a few months!

but in the meantime, I urge you to go try it!

Adj t say all good see below.

UTILIZATION

It's super simple, you turn the knobs and the sound changes! I like the VLE and VPF filters.

SOUNDS

Yes the sound is top. I'm between the Rock and Blues Jazz in walking times and I never change my sound. I have a Fender Precision and it intends to US grain. I plugged into a wall 15 Eden "(Eden Electronics D115 XL). The sound is well rounded.

OVERALL OPINION

Lightweight (TRS). Small (Practice). Good quality price. Super sound. Easy (rglage) Powerful (500W) and manufactured in Europe (Italy) is not shit I can see China as in the studio RPET!
