PROS
- • Markbass's signature Art Tube emulation provides a surprisingly warm, vintage preamp tone.
- • The lightweight, biodegradable housing is genuinely impressive for a head of this power.
- • The EQ section offers precise tonal shaping, especially the 'Old School Filter'.
- • The DI output is excellent, providing a clean, usable signal for recording and live sound.
CONS
- • The 'cut' filter can be overly aggressive, limiting low-mid versatility.
- • While powerful, it’s designed for smaller venues; larger stages require a bigger setup.
- • The drive section, while decent, lacks the complexity of more expensive preamps.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's a solid simulation, capturing the warmth and saturation, but lacks the dynamic response and subtle nuances of true tubes.
The footswitch for the filter and mute functions is not included; it's a separate purchase.
A 10” or 12” speaker cabinet with good low-end extension will complement the amp's power and EQ well.
