Mark Bass - Marcus Miller Amps!

[@davedavem]

Thanks to your beautiful bass tones I always find loose change in places I didn't know I had it.

[@MitchMitchellBass]

If you buy the head cover/bag you can leave it on, (I do and never any problems as it has fan vents) the rear access flap has velcro on it so you just flip the front and rear flaps under the head and it sticks to the cabinet allowing you to lean your cab back without the head moving.

[@mickavoidant4780]

Why do so many bass gear reviews have the reviewers showing off their slap playing and twiddling on the top strings. I'm a bass player. I play mostly the bottom strings and want to know how amps sound on the low end.

[@blankvrs]

Absolutely!

[@neilrushworth5958]

Exactly , and they do waffle on !

[@mickavoidant4780]

The thinking might be 'I'm playing by myself; I need to do more to fill in'. Playing over a backing track would do that and show better what it's like with a band.

[@bark5318]

Well, Marcus Miller is famous for his slapping so kinda makes sense to atleast show it off :)

[@mickavoidant4780]

@@bark5318 That's fair, but show us what else it can do. I'd want to know, before spending over £100 more for having his name on it.

“First thing in the morning, get rid of your horn, then you can concentrate on the rest of your day” 😂😂

[@czarpaul01]

Seems like a lot of distortion happening in the jams. Wish we could have gotten some more focus in the Millerizer since Marcus' slap tone is legendary. 30 odd seconds certainly wasn't enough

[@Stratisfied22]

The head is pretty good but I would strongly recommend a cabinet with a tweeter regardless of what these guys say. This amp is dark and you have to turn the old school off and millerizer all the way up to brighten it up enough to make it sound clear. Paired my little marcus 250 with two Ampeg svt210av cabs and it sounds really nice but somewhat lacking in the highs. Then I hooked it up to a Phil Jones Cab 27 and the amp came to life like you wouldn't believe, it's like a mini hifi monster now. Believe me learning to tweak the EQ and choice of cabinet will help to get a great sound but I know peoples initial reaction to this amp will be one of unsureness. Honestly I almost sent it back myself but i'm glad I didn't as I'm getting some amazing tones with it.

[@cthulholmhastur5317]

Hell yes! here's two guys that are shredding some tasty licks.. obviously with a love of the jam and the instrument... kudos gentlemen.

[@Gerry926]

It definitely makes a difference when you guys play through Aguilar and the like. MB is loud but kind of flat. Almost like a layer of sound is missing.

[@iliasliakos6692]

wooo the intro sounded so cool!

[@adams115]

These lads are having too much fun!

[@michealniby4819]

Can u guys please do a review of the Markbass Casa?’

[@Scarecrow6459]

Hey guys, I love that you cover Mark Bass and I just wanted to ask if you have considered doing a vid on the Michael League sig model from Mark Bass?

[@letmeooze]

Mark Bass makes such funky, punchy bass amps. I love them.

[@Highrollinhunter]

Me too I love when them yellow speakers are moving while I'm slapping the living shit out of my Ibanez roadstar ii bass

[@djfglobal3377]

I’m thinking of picking one up. Maybe a two 10 combo? Any opinion?

[@benhowell6718]

@@djfglobal3377 I played a 1x15 markbass combo for a couple years and gigged with it, it was an awesome amp. If you're eyeing a 2x10 I'd say go for it, they're great. The combos especially, they make them unbelievably light despite pushing crazy amounts of power

[@freddye7442]

I’m being using ampeg and Eden for many years more Than 10 , I thought that my bases were old or maybe not calibrated or old strings, Someone told me not , you are good and your bases are good , go to guitar center and try whatever markbass amp that they have for demo and call me back , so I went to the music store plug the bass and In just 15 sec playing I decided to sell all my amps and get one of this 😂😂, slap sound are just amazing, mid range is just perfect and it won’t matter if your strings are 6 months old , they will be sound as bright as the sun

[@osodelcity]

FYI, the Markbass amp bag has velcro on the rear, so when you fold it over it will stick to the carpet on the cabinet. I have one, problem solved for kick back cabinets!

[@ericblasse6335]

I’d like to see your guys giging gear what amps u use basses and pedals

[@Kuuuks]

I don’t get the kickback idea, where do you put the amp when you kickback, does it have magnets or something to hold it in kickback position or you have to use like a different desk or something to hold the head? Kickback only makes sense when it’s a combo amp....

[@captaindelculo1731]

a lot of people don't just sit the head on top of the cab, but I have to agree it seems pretty inconvenient

[@Kuuuks]

Captain Del Culo I thinks it’s rather the opposite, a lot of people sit their amp on top of the cab why would you have to carry another table or something to hold the amp whiles the cab is right there?

[@AugustThor438]

Actually you hold it in your left hand because your beer is in your right hand.

[@extasis1111]

hello maybe someone can enlighten me. what's the use of having 2 or 4 speakers if ur placing the microphone in front of just one?

[@alastor1052]

If you consider the fact that the signal going through all of the four speakers is the same, you would only have to mic up one for the signal. Having four speakers moves way more air and is therefore way better at producing a louder sound since sound is just air being moved.

[@extasis1111]

Alastor thank you! It's much more clear now

[@CanUSeeRJB1]

Better question for guitar, since the air during a concert mainly relies on the bass rumble. Sets a certain mood

[@officialwillieg2001]

Love this channel

[@Highrollinhunter]

I tested a mark bass 4x10 cabinet when picking my Ibanez roadstar ii bass up from the repair shop at guitar center the speakers were moving because someone who was playing a stingray set the drive on the tube head all the way up and the volume to 4 and a half so I turned it down to 3 it felt so good playing my roadstar ii through a tube amp I'm always overdriving my little behringer amp at home with Motörhead riffs I wish I had a mark bass amp

[@davelock3166]

Not just informative, but great Bass playing and entertaining!

[@tortillaman2491]

I was about to buy this 4x10 and found out the tweeter is not adjustable on the Marcus Miller cabs. If you plug high-power heads into power sockets in old buildings with bad ground, you get buzzing thru the tweeter. And if you turn the treble down, it muffles your overall tone. Best to turn the tweeter off in that situation. Plus.....if you use FX, it's good to turn the tweeter up for chorus or overdrive pedals. Disappointed in these cabs.

[@liamgarman6738]

18:40 my favourite apple loop

[@TravisTennies]

Thank you

[@MrAlwest77]

Was hoping to hear how the cabs/amps handled the B string from the 5 string bass. Any comments? Thanks, guys.

[@ccjacks3]

Would yall recommend the 2x10 or the 4x10 as a first buy??

[@marcusfletcher6504]

The 4x10

[@ccjacks3]

Marcus Fletcher I bought the 4x10 👍🏾

[@marcusfletcher6504]

Dope which head did you get and what bass are you playing through it

[@ccjacks3]

Marcus Fletcher I bought the 1000W head and I have a Sire V3 & M2

[@blamelouis]

Nathan’s on .the ketamine agin.

[@calvinjackson30]

Stupid Question, but with either the 800W or the 1000W could you run both a 210 and a 410 simultaneously?? Im new to understanding how amp outputs work. Thanks!

[@jwuonog]

Yes, you can, as long as you have the right amount of load on the amp.

[@himbo7772]

As long as each cab can utilize it's own speaker input with the proper ohms, yes. Lower wattage amps tend to only be able to run one cab. However that seems less common now. Recommend making sure there's at least two input jacks

[@anthonymarez7188]

hell yeah some bass player love right on

[@gglibert3238]

Sorry for stupid question but can you slant the cab and keep the head on it?

[@drbassface]

Why did these Amp get discontinued?

[@electrofreddy]

Hello and welcome to All About The Jazz Bass ! ;)

[@julienarrijs]

sick intro jam !

[@SanNjig]

Sounds way too muddy to me

[@ericblasse6335]

SanDanV glad it wasn’t just me, sorry markbass too overpriced and poorly sounding for me

[@Fektthis]

not sure if it was the amp or the bass or just both of em but not my cup of tea. I gotta agree, I prefer a crisper, tighter sound for bass.

[@Jihadbearzwithgunz]

They have the gain set too high for the active basses which is sending a dirty signal and shows a poor representation of markbass amps and cabs

[@shigityshigityshwa]

@@Jihadbearzwithgunz you can see the gain light clipping on the heads. both of them. idiots.

[@handgunner1911]

i heard marcus playing thru it and it doesnt have his sound there is no ballsy punchy bottom end im not a fan of mark bass

[@TheNekromantique]

V7 vintage also has 70s pickup spacing

[@looniethemoonie5353]

Man im really behind the times i thought marcus was using swr amps...i mean do they evey make swr amps anymore i cant find them anywhere except used

[@mladigospon]

yo peeps youre clipping hard :D

[@tortillaman2491]

Does the wedge design on those cabs cut into the kick and tone?

[@tbassrollin5990]

Loving the call and response type groove goin on here!! Found this by inquiring about the Markbass Amps!! Cool!!

Ahh, my birthday is starting out well with some all about the bass

[@leightnite3056]

Happy Birthday!

[@lexmeyer7918]

It seems you can only connect one cab?

[@KozmykJ]

Ummm ... Did you get rid of/switch off the HF Horn ? If not your mic'ing was leaving the highs out ...

[@brianturner8001]

good one gents. richard bona shines on larry coryell's spaces revisited. great recurrd.

[@MatthewJohnCrittenden]

Entertaining as ever chaps, one day I may actually pick up a bass.

[@InvisibleKingStudio]

LOL... LOVE IT!! BOOOOMM!!

[@alvinfernandez99]

Can you run the 4x10 with the Miller 500?

[@pi_husky4485]

yes. The 4x10 is rated at 800 watts at 8 ohms so you should be totally fine.

[@KaijuAlert]

Shame you couldn't be a bit more professional and respectful to Richard Bona, the guy is a legend.

[@kaeruemkui2654]

Im pretty sure it is in fact Richard “Bone-Uh”.

[@Unknown-bd9ss]

came for amps, stayed for this awesome playing

[@tudobem12]

This intro is a jam? i feel like i heard this before

[@indigoking6618]

Sorry but I think you guys need a sound pressure metre, because volumes are all over the shop, and for those who thought it was distorted is because these amps don't work with a little knob turning to see what happens, one needs time with the amp.

[@jdl2180]

I would never buy one after watching this!😂

[@fabiosantana8753]

Can Sombody help me? MarkBass "Little Marcus 1000w" or "Peavey MiniMega 1000w" ? Both amplifiers cust almost the same. I'm Starting with Fender Player Jazz Bass. Thank everybody for help me.

[@DavidRosario69]

I feel stupid. I always thought Mark Bass had something to do with Mark King.

[@Zayskibop]

Mark King plays with Mark Bass products! But it doesn't mean Marcus Miller, it's named after the founder Marco De Virgiliis

[@pi_husky4485]

Mark King as a signature amp head and cab from them but its not his brand.

mark bass...🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒

[@zr2700]

I dig the clean, mid focused sound of markbass heads, but their cabs absolutley suck. All sound muddy and weak. They dont do the heads any justice. U need to pair with a fender rumble or ampeg cab or something with a clear warm punch. Then markbass heads really shine and give that great tone.

[@dirkda2451]

i must be one of those 7 and i'm from Belgium fun show pointless

[@leightnite3056]

These Guys Are Digusting...ly Awesome! Love the Basses, Don't Love the BORING Print of his name on the headstock, That's very Lame! Amps sounded alright, kinda brown to me, may just be the tone knob settings on the basses, listening through 2 big ass yahama's. Rock On!

[@jonathanmosher72]

I like Markbass. But that FUCKIN CARPET! Has all the style of a turd rolled in dryer lint. God help you if you have a cat or a dog. I had an SWR cab that looked like Sasquatch had it's way with it. The hair is virtually impossible to get out with tape and a vacuum. You literally need to pluck each one out with a tweezers.

[@jwestl3y]
