Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent/Like New
I'm always amazed at just how much power and tone the folks at Markbass are able to fit into such small packages and this Little Mark Tube 800 is no exception. You've got your choice of rich, raunchy tube and tight, clean solid state, with a mix control to blend the two channels to taste. It also features independent gain controls, a comprehensive EQ section, Variable Pre-Shape Filter and Vintage Speaker Emulator for further tonal sculpting, as well as an effects loop and a convenient, subway-ready gig bag. This Tube 800 may be small, but it packs a big punch!
From Other (Miscellanous Used/Vintage/Consign)
The Little Mark Tube solves the “tube or solid state” dilemma. The Little Mark Tube 800 goes a step further by also addressing that other perennial concern, “Will I have enough power?” The 800 watts from this powerful amp will satisfy any thirst for power, and the two blendable preamps give you the warmth and richness of a tube preamp, the clean attack of a solid state preamp… or a mix of both!
