They have/used to have a 3x10 Combo, (CMD 103p I think), so this is a newer version with the Marcus Miller Amp instead of an Little Mark.

Highlights of the new line up for me are the: MB STU AMP 1000: which has 'solid state and a tube preamp with separate level controls' and the ability to mix. It's also got a 7-band graphic EQ which should address one of the single biggest criticisms of MB amps that I've heard (as a longstanding MB owner and user) which is that the EQ points are not the best in the game. 1000W at 4Ω / 600W at 8Ω should give all the headroom you're ever likely to need for most gigs. DV Mark Smart Multiamp - this promises the 'lowest latency possible' and with 'a next generation processor, this machine allows performances never achieved by any product on the market so far'. That's a BIG claim, so I'll be interested to see how much truth there is in it! Edited January 18, 2018 by Al Krow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I do like the look of that 60w combo too! And it's far from new, but also still want to get hold of a Nano Mark......don't necessarily need it, but love the idea of an amp that fits in my gig bag Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nano Mark is a cracking bit of kit... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Lots of lovely gear here, don't think I've ever seen so many new products from them at one time? Hopefully some will make it to the SW Bash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to know how reliable they are and sound quality and how user friendly they are regards gary I love mine. If you like Markbass, then you'll like this. It's been a few years since I had a LM3, but it feels like a more powerful version of it. It's about as user friendly as they come. I don't EQ more than a notch either way of 12 o'clock, but the filters are there to quickly get 'old skool' or 'modern'. If you're not a Markbass fan though, it's nothing new.

beastie Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Thanks for that I will have to try one out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Glad to see them bringing back sealed cabs! The Classic series cabs are my favourite. I notice that the 4x10 is smaller than mine though, I'd be interested to hear the difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, nice to see a compact, low power 1x10 combo with a tweeter for a change! But I don't really see the purpose of an external speaker out on such a small, low-power amp. I would have preferred the full 60 watts to the internal speaker rather than 45. Also interesting to see a regular 3-band EQ and no VPF / VLE. The larger combo's and all heads have a "Millerizer" EQ filter section though? Edited January 24, 2018 by LeftyJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about as user friendly as they come. Reliability of Markbass is well up there, and the Ninja is no different! The Ninja heads have masses more headroom so just feel bigger and more "open" sounding, but the same essential tone character of the Little Mark III. Regarding usability, many Markbass users leave all tone controls at virtually 12 O'clock and as M@23 said, do all they need with the filters. VLE - Vintage Loudspeaker Emulation (or James Jamerson knob as I like to call it!) and VPF - Variable Pre-shape Filter (which is a mid scoop), so yeah, pretty easy to find your tone really! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I like the look of the 1x10 combo too. Are there any pictures of the amp section yet? Pop that on top of my TRV123 and I'd be very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
