Markbass Micromark 801 Bass Combo Amp is a bass amp.
The Markbass Micromark 801 is a lightweight 45W bass combo amp with an 8″ speaker. The 801 is the big brother to the original Micromark which had a 6″ speaker. The concept of the Micromark remains in the 801 providing a lightweight user friendly and professional sounding amp. The 8″ speaker allows for a more clear bass response which remains tight and punchy in tone and at 5.2 kg this amp is unrivaled in its practicality.

An amp is an amplifier used to boost the signal from a guitar and shape its overall tone and volume. It plays a major role in how a guitar sounds, influencing everything from clean clarity to natural overdrive and distortion, and is a core part of any guitar setup for both practice and live performance.
