I'm proud to endorse Markbass bass amps. Below is a photo of me in front of my current rig at NRK's Studio 2: Markbass R500 tube amplifier, 2 x CL104 4x10 loudspeaker cabinets. I also have a CMD102P combo that I'm very happy with :)
Meet my current best friend, mr. Moog Little Phatty. Thank you Bob!
