MARK VISION
A Word from Marco De Virgiliis
Thank you for choosing DV Mark!
We are very excited to have you join us for an exciting new chapter in the history of guitar amplification. In less than 10 years, we have succeeded in making
Markbass the world’s leading bass amp brand, using technology to better serve the needs of bassists: great tone, reliability, versatility/flexibility, and light weight.
Now it’s time for guitarists to have their turn!
The classic
tones
guitarists have come to know and love over the last few decades are worthy of great respect. We have designed our amps with a great reverence
for these sounds. We’re not trying to start a revolution in guitar tone… because guitarists don’t want or need that.
However—there are some important areas where the classic amplifiers can be greatly improved upon, to better suit the needs of guitarists:
The first is
reliability
—and we are very proud of the high quality standard that we’re able to offer thanks to our 100% Made in Italy production, state-of the-art
testing and quality control facilities, top-quality components, and innovative technology that makes it easy to monitor the condition of your amp and its tubes. You
need to be able to always trust your amp… and we understand that!
The second is
flexibility.
One example of this is DV Mark’s patent pending Continuous Power Control feature (included on our 40W heads and combos), which
allows you to adjust the power incrementally, setting the power at anywhere between 1 and 40W. This means you can get the tone you want at the volume you need;
so you can use the same amp for everything, from larger gigs, to smaller gigs, right down to bedroom practicing—and never sacrifice your tone!
The third is
light weight.
Many of you have seen your bass players easily loading in and out of gigs with their lightweight Markbass gear, while you struggle
with a heavy 2x12 combo or 4x12 cabinet. It’s time you enjoyed the same benefits of lightweight gear! Especially if you play a lot, the weight of your gear is a real
factor. Once you learn that DV Mark allows you to get killer tone at a fraction of the weight… there’s no going back.
We hope you will enjoy your new guitar amp, and we invite you to contact us any time with your comments and questions, at
.
Thanks again, and good music!
