A special limited run of the award-winning Mark II.

In April 2008, Bass Player magazine announced the winners of their first annual Reader's Choice Awards, and the Little Mark II emerged as the big winner, earning both Best Bass Head and Best All-Around New Product honors.

To celebrate this great honor, Marco De Virgiliis is producing the Little Mark II Marco Limited Edition 08. Only 500 will be produced, and each one will be tested, approved, and signed by Marco personally. This collector's item will not last.

The Markbass Little Mark II is a stunning bass amp head that combines great sound, compact size, and light weight. Its small size makes the Little Mark II easy to transport, yet with a 4-band EQ, VLE (Vintage Loudspeaker Emulator) and VPF (Variable Pre-shape Filter), its tone is nothing short of professional. The I/O includes an input that can handle both passive and active basses and an extra XLR balanced input for double bass pickups. Its Neutrik Speakon Combo out jacks work with 1/4" or Speakon speaker cables. A tuner out jack sends unbalanced signals to a tuner, amp, or recording equipment. Send and return effect jacks maintain your main signal even if something dies in your effects chain.

Be one of the few who'll get their hands on this limited-edition award-winner and see what makes the Little Mark II a really big deal.
