MarkBass make Basses Now? But are they any good?


Markbass has a proven record of making high-quality, lightweight bass amps, and the Italian company’s colourful speaker cabs have worked their way into the rigs of many top-name players.

However, Markbass also produce a number of basses – there are seven different series available – and the MB JF1 is the very first I’ve tracked down. In this video I’m going to find out how good it really is.

As always, see you in the shed…

Scott 🙂

  • I belong to SBL….but I don’t understand why ANY of you only demo for class or here on YouTube, you ONLY demo or show “new bass” day are basses that are $5000 and above! Why didn’t you demo the $299 mark bass p bass?

    I just don’t get it.

  • What is the difference between JF1 and JP1? From the website seems like F may stand for Val di Fiemme spruce

  • I just picked up a used markbass mustang style short scale bass in mark bass yellow from guitar center. Haven’t found it anywhere online I don’t know how rare it is but it plays and sounds great! I actually came in to pick up a 5 string and noticed it sitting on the used gear rack. Ended up returning the 5 string and keeping the Markbass.

  • I will not buy anything Mark Bass again. My second little mark 3 head just died, 1200 bucks in amp heads down the toilet. They can’t even repair their own products in house, that’s very pathetic.

  • By the way, the tone control is also a switch. When you pull it out, the bass switches from active to passive, as if it was a Fender jazz bass. You'll be surprised how good the bass sounds in passive mode.

  • If you get the possibility to find and buy a Squire jazz bass standard 2007 MI Indonesia for about 150-200 euros, do buy it, with only some adjustments and setting them up, it sounds and plays killer.

  • Scott, I loved the review and I already won… I got to see a talented musician play an amazing instrument! It sounded fantastic. If I played, it wouldn't sound nearly as nice. Thank you for posting this video!

  • Aahhh I'm a guitarist and I think bass is a very great and capable instrument I just had one question why do you wear that glove in your right hand

  • These knobs (600 of them) looks like something from 2001 by Stanley Kubrick. Would you bring this to a gig, Scott? Seems like a cool bass

    Reply
  • Hi Scott, been watching your videos on YouTube for some time now, I haven't signed up to your course as I haven't got a bass, but hopefully that should all change soon. I've been a pipeband drummer all my life and it's time for a change, I seriously can't wait to learnt the bass mate. Keep up the great videos ????
