fretmeister Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Finally here. Only had 5 mins with it so far but it sounds good and has that warmth MB amps usually have. Quite different to the RM800 but that's a good thing as I like a bit of variety. Bit of fan noise (not as quiet as the Ashdown) but no louder than a pretty quiet PC that isn't doing anything taxing. Might take it to rehearsal on Saturday to see what happens in the mix. Edited June 15, 2022 by fretmeister 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Nice frequency settings, plenty there to suit a Precision and a Jazz quite nicely 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 I need to remember if any of my basses have rounds on them to try it with that as well as flats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chienmortbb Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I wonder why they have chosen the AG prefix, surely it creates confusion with Aguilar's model numbering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it’s the Andrew Gouche signature model. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fretmeister Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 He’s mainly a session player and musical director for some big acts. Also big in American gospel stuff. Monster player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Rehearsed with it this morning. It’s very loud and punchy. Great sound with a Super Twin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Having tried soooo many different amp brands and configurations over the years, I’ve found that Markbass simply ‘work’ for me better than any other. In fact, so much so that I currently have an order in for no less than 3 new heads (matching gig head and a studio one plus a Nano backup for gigging), a pair of cabs (both 4 ohms for different situations) and a small rehearsal/acoustic combo. All are replacements for existing MB gear, which I’ve put up for sale. I’ve now worked out exactly which combinations I want and am excited to settle in with them. The AG, and MM, heads were both on my list but I settled on the warmer tones of a small valve pre head instead. Also don’t need more than 500w into the 4ohm cabs. I bet the AG sounds monstrous at full whack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fretmeister Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 I am really enjoying this amp. It's a step up again from the Marcus Miller one I had. It's really punchy and the EQ is now my favourite on any MB amp I've had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
