Markbass TA503 - now £400

As far as I know, this is the precursor to the current Little Mark series, and made in Italy unlike its modern contemporaries. It has a dual tube preamp and SS power amp with semi parametric EQ (one knob selects the specific frequency within a given band(bass, low mid, high mid, highs) and the other boasts or cuts it). Great sounding head, bucket loads of headroom and a really warm, natural sound. Two Speakon outputs, DI out and level, tuner, effects loop etc. These are currently out of production and don't come by too often. Used to be £1k+ when new and I'm asking for 500 Comes with case and I will be willing to ship.

Markbass NY122 - £450 SOLD



I'll post the head but I'd much prefer for the cab to be collected. It's currently based in Wrexham, North Wales but I can get it up to Leeds if necessary, and I'll travel a short distance of you want to meet me for it.

Can you advise what year the TA503 was made please. The month and year of manufacture are on a label on the rear face. Many thanks.

Is that an Italian-built 2x12 cab?
Thanks

No, as far as I can remember it's one of the newer models, and as of late most of their amps are produced in the Far East.

Certainly is a great amp, sounds fantastic. Just doesn’t really suit what I’m doing at the moment and I can’t justify have more than one amp at a time.

Cabinet is on hold, Head still for sale. Will post in the case (one of the zips are broken but I've been to lazy to get it repaired), bubble wrapped and in a box. Will trade with some cash coming my way for an Orange Bass Terror 500
