MarkBass Little Mark IV Bass Head Key Features

• Built Upon A Legacy - The "Little Mark" series from MarkBass first made an appearance more than two-decades ago, with its smaller design being heralded as the new industry standard in compact, lightweight amplifiers. With the Little Mark IV that legacy has been preserved, with the original designed evolving to include a whole host of modern features as requested by many MarkBass artists and customers.
• 4-Band EQ, Old School Filter, 3-Way Switch - Featuring very effective controls, the 4-Band EQ on this amplifier allows you to easily find the sounds that you want, with up to 16dB of cut/boost within each range. In addition to this, the Old School filter allows you to cut your high frequencies for a smooth, rounder tone. The 3-way rotary-switch also lets you choose between a super-balanced flat tone, scooped mids (ideal for slap), or the FSW option to control both mute and the Scooped EQ on demand via external footswitch.
• Bi-band Limiter - The newly-designed bi-band limiter on this amp offers a more dynamic, and faster response than a traditional limiter does, allowing your high end to breathe for a more natural sound. This makes the amp perfect for players who enjoy a quick, punchy attack at high volumes.
• Mute/Line Out Level Control / Pre-Post EQ Switch - Situated on the Little Mark IV's front panel is a convenient mute switch, alongside the Line Out level control knob that allows for pin-point control over the signal you send to a mixer/PA. On the rear panel you will find a Pre-Post EQ switch allows you to set the XLR output's routing to before or after your EQ as required.
• MPT - Mark Propietary Technology - Whilst many other bass amplifiers on the market utilise power amps that aren't specifically designed for bass, that isn't the case with MarkBass products. Thanks to a heavy investment in the Markbass R&D department, the MPT power amp was designed and built from the ground up, ensuring the tone of your bass is accurately preserved and respected.
