@@hugeshows Please do the video, I'm really intrigued what you found. I was thinking to buy a Markbass because I rally like the tone until I read your comment. Please do that video!
@@Dc_94 I've already returned it unfortunately. I didn't want to play around with the ability to take it back and get a refund. I did wind up contacting them about it. They seem a bit sure of themselves and more or less dismissed my criticisms. I've ordered a Trickfish 1k to replace it.
Thank you for this comparison! I've fallen in love with the sound of that Markbass. What a warm, heartmelting, smooth, soft, yet beautiful tone it has! Absolutely fits my taste. Awesome! :)
Markbass sounded the best. It had the most character. I understand this was a quick walkthrough, but I would have liked to hear her play it for longer. Off to check out other demos.
I'm shopping around for my first bass head, the EBS was the easiest on the ear to me and I like that it has the built in compressor. That was a perfect demo Julia
Wow, Markbass really bloomed with warmth. If I’d be in the market for a backup amp, and if the di on the BAM is any good, I’d get that. Surprisingly warm and solid lil’ BAM - especially for the money.
In my opinion the Mark Bass amp produce a very nice warm and huge big tone, with a great punch. Thanks for making this video, it was truly informative.
I tried 4 of these. My Bergantino forte HP was what made me quit looking any further for a head. My Berg, like my Sadowsky bass. Once you get that piece of equipment that is around 85% of what you want, then stop. Because you will spend an insane amount trying to find the elusive 5-10% tone, that might only exist in your head.
Bergantino is top tier along with Aguilar, Trickfish, and Mesa. Some of these amps are okay but there are better amps out there but you have to pay more money. I personally own an Aguilar AG 700 but there are others in the $1000 range that are rated pretty high. Testing an amp that is not set flat with no effects in the signal is the only realistic way to do a comparison.
@Darin Michaels and you know that how? She's a really good bass player and I like her enthusiasm. You can find comments by me complimenting Jayme Lewis or Davie504 or Scott Devine or any number of great male bass players. What's with the axe to grind?
The 'Markbass' and the Phil Jones seem to have the bold clean punch that I prefer plus I love my bass through a tube Amp .....it gives me a false sense of security like a kid with a good looking babysitter !
...pulling teeth! :) Darkglass distortion sounds great! They are all serving some good purpose. The BAM200 is cheap and for travelling it is awesome! The Markbass sounds great and warm. I would have liked to hear more on that one. The EBS is great as well. I think the Sandberg is shaping a lot of the sound as well. Great bass on good amps.
EBS has a nice clarity and enough depth to please me. My back up amp to my Mesa head is the Reidmar 750. I did like the Markbass tone which is closer to my Mesa Mpulse 600 tone albiet a lot lighter. Nice demo Julia. Quite enjoyed that.
I tried all of these... ended up buying EBS..but the 750 version..!!.. They all had good & bad points, but overall, the EBS is a real world, easy to operate, hugely powered amp, with a fantastic compressor/limiter & as clean or as dirty sounding as you'll ever need...at a great price too. I used the same bass to try them all, Sadowsky jazz in both active & passive modes. With all the amps set flat, the EBS was the only amp that didn't seem to colour the sound of the bass. They're all decent amps..but personally, the EBS just had some quality about it that shone above the rest. Julia..nice playing by the way.
Nice shootout! My favorites? I love the new Markbass. But that EBS is unbelievable! They’re hard to get in the US (EBS) But those 2 I want in my arsenal; The Markbass & EBS!!😌🎶👍🏾
That Markbass got me, the sound but especially the looks. I really like the little tube and the massive knobs. It looks like the analog units that you would see in a studio for mixing and mastering. Also the fun fact, lol
EBS was quite toppy and a bit modern, even though quite liked it. I wanted to like it more than I did The MarkBass was very full and rounded, didn’t want to like it, but did. Probably the one that might end up zeroing in on if played them all myself. Oddly the TC had perhaps the most classic type of bass sound of the lot. And was certainly the no nonsense one of the lot.
Great comparison video 👍🏾Thanks, Great job. The EBS "seems" to have a tad more punch in the low end (which I like) and also has a lot more clarity than the others; but that Mark Bass also sounds killer, nice, full and even sounding ... with a slight bit of a mid boost; those two sound great.
it would have been interesting to set all heads with same gain setting, eq flat, no effects, and adjust master accordingly, which was not the case here. Difficult to compare in this situation, where gains are differents, EBS has character and comp engaged, Markbass has tube curve and limiter engaged, Darkglass first testes with full overdrive (wtf?!) + eq not flat, and finally TC with eq not flat. Moreover this comparison is made between amps going from 135 to 1111€ and from 200 to 900 watts, not mentioning connections possibilities, etc... Keep all those facts in mind before rushing a "shut up and take my money"
markbass has the best balance of warm and clear crisp tones. it has this good low/bassy but not muddled (clear crisp) mix to it that makes every note u play sound "whole". loved it. the others (excluding darkglass) were either thin sounding or muffled. id exclude the darkglass cause it shouldnt have been in that category of ampheads. darkglass caters mostly to metal or heavy genres.
The EBS got that honk, but isnt bad. The Phil Jones is a modern funky sound, the Darkglass is for modern metal and rock, THe Tc electronics got a great sound for the price, something between vintage and modern sound, the Markbass is more Vintage with a very musical tube sound. I love the Markbass - the lower frequencies are having such a depth to it and that little tube saturation is great too.
@@algarridm oh you can't get wrong with any really. It's a matter of taste. The one you like the most with your bass. Take your bass, maybe your essential always on pedals with ya and go to a shop. It's impossible for me to tell you which one you will be happy with. Sorry for the lame answer. But for bang for a buck, check out the Harley Benton Solidbass, Ashdown amps or used trace elliot.
Best setup ever high end Peavey heads going into SWR cabinets. By far better than anything you can buy off the shelf at Sam Ash or Guitar Center for any amount of money. Make those Markbass amps look like cute little toys.
I like 1rst : Tc Electronic ...small put inside a bag and sound is good. 2nd is Mark bass sound is round and warm, it is the best choice And what is your choice ??
Bass on your video the markbass sounded the best, but I know the DG could easily compare just with the eq and blend knob. But love the markbass adding the tube
Wow i'm surprised how bad the darkglass sound is in this video. Btw my impressions on tones are: Tc: normal Phil jones: clear Markbass: warm Ebs: deep Darkglass: thin Love the ultra deep and mid scooped tone of ebs head
thanks for this video. it would be nice to play some backing track with the demos because it sounds different. I almost bought the EBS, but, after this, decided to go with the TC elec.
Markbass sounds the fattest and warmest. I wonder if there is any difference in tone between the Vintage and Little Mark Tube model. The latter might fit into my budget. [Update]: When the next day I listened again through my external sound interface and a bassier pair of headphones, EBS played with new surprising colours and was my favourite by far
there is difference the tube has solit state pre-amp and tube compresor.. vintage has tube preamp.. i compared my old LM rocker (that has same tube as LM-tube but in overdrive circuit) with LM vintage and the sounds and the dirrences are realy noticible even when i try to set the simmilar tone :) vintage is much more "fat and natural" more like classic all-tube amps :).
Strange you did not adjust the eq on the Phil Jones, but on all the others... The PJ is fabulous amp is you tweak the eq a bit. :) I did the Sandberg bass!
The Phil Jones was my favorite. They all sound great. I'm not a fan of distortion but the amp is doing what it is supposed to do. I like the clarity of the EBS but it's very difficult to tell if anything is "bad" with your awesome playing. Did you say 800 watts in that cigar box? Did she say that? Nice video. Thanks!
That test should’ve been done with all settings flat( 12:00 )on all amps. And then start tweaking controls You had different settings on each amp .Test was unfair to All the amps and to listeners.
For the price, BAM200 is unbeatable. The EBS and Markbass are pretty awesome but they would have to be to be that much more expensive. I would like to see a list of best practice (and easy to carry) bass amps. My old practice bass amp is crap and I would like to have something more interesting...
Glock and Sandberg deserve a mention. The first thing she played sounded amazing with the EBS. After that I loved the MB. But all sound good. TC great value and so compact.
Hmmm... can't really say I like any of these. I will hold on to my 25-year-old Trace Elliot. Admittedly, the small sizes of new amps are truly impressive, but they only offer basic EQing. My GP12SMX from the mid 90s has got an "EQ balance" dial that works like a see-saw on a graphic EQ - which is perfect for getting the deep end back into the bridge pickup without sacrificing any of the dry growl - also, without any dents in the frequency response, i.e. no booming freq bands. I don't see a 3-band EQ doing that nearly as well. On top of that, it has got tube and solid state input (blendable, of course) and separate high and low compression. The only thing I would really have loved to have on this amp is MIDI controllable patches for quick acess without all the button fiddling. But then, neither of these new ones seems to have that either, so what happend to bass amps? To me, the miniaturization is really the only step forward in the last decades - everything else looks like some steps back to me. What gives?
To my ears, the EBS had the most beefy mids. The Markbass had the most low end with a more scooped sound. The Phil Jones had a nice flat tone but with a pleasant slight bump in the low-mids. The Darkglass had the most balanced, yet still musical, flat tone. The TC Electronic was the most transparent, but almost blocky sounding. I would have a hard time choosing between the EBS, the Markbass, and the Phil Jones.
It is almost impossible to judge the quality of the amps in this test.Because the EQ settings are so different. They're not all in the flat position.The EBS and Mark Bass for example have bass and treble boosted. While the Phil Jones amp is set absolutely flat.
1. Markbass 2. EBS but... 1) the Markbass EQ settings in this video look like to be on SCOOPED mode, so it had low and high ends boosted and middle cutted...on the contrary all the others heads have flat EQ 2) if you really want to compare different heads playing the same bass you also have to play the same riff...
The clarity on the ebs is unbelievable.

Markass has the warmest sound of all, really like that one and by far my favourite!
Great demo! I was pleasantly surprised by the bam200! But I gotta say, that Markbass sounded outstanding. Head and shoulders above the rest, imho.
Wow, Markbass really bloomed with warmth. If I’d be in the market for a backup amp, and if the di on the BAM is any good, I’d get that. Surprisingly warm and solid lil’ BAM - especially for the money.

The MarkBass sounds the best to me out of these Amp Heads. Very good Demonstration of these Bass Amp Heads.

Nice review. I have the Markbass Little Tube 800 and it is sick. Great warmth. It just shines with tons of tones. Great playing Julia.
The MarkBass was my #1 and the TC Electronic 2nd.
1. Markbass Little Mark Vintage
2. EBS Reidmar 502
3. Phil Jones BP-800
4. TC Electronic Bam 200
5. Darkglass Alpha Omega 900
Also awesome playing :)
EBS Reidmar 502 - warm, direct sound handles 2ohme - GREAT - Julia is awesome 🤗
All the amps are awesome but I think it's more what fits your playing style. I play rock and metal so that Dark Glass is where's it's at for me.
Julia is awesome. That is all.
Amen!

I have the AO 900 and this amp is really versatile, not just big overdrive but very clean sound
Clear winner Markbass
Missing the Mesa WD 800 here. It's the best Class D Bass Amp I have ever used.
I would have to choose the EBS out of this batch, the Darkglass was surprisingly the most underwhelming
Darkglass!!! Complete tonal dominance!
Markbass and the Phil Jones were my favorite.
Surprisingly I liked the MarkBass the best.

Same. Phil Jones stuff also has very natural sounding EQs, so you can dial in more low-end and still have clarity and defintion.
Bam 200 sounded good to me, Julia. I still use a Crate Bx 160 watts and gotta move
That test should’ve been done with all settings flat( 12:00 )on all amps. And then start tweaking controls You had different settings on each amp .Test was unfair to All the amps and to listeners.
Chill, this isn't the 'scientific hour'.
Markbass and EBS by far!! Too bad they are out of my €€€ Range. Could you tell me what cabinet you are using beneath the amps?
Looks like a Glockenklang Duo 2x10
It's all in the mids.
My favorite was the blue one
Mark Bass btw what was that song you played using the markbass Amazing ❤️🔥
Phil Jones sounds awesome
Tanks/ I love the markass soud.. It's deep and warm. It's my very favourite... Bye...
For the price, BAM200 is unbeatable. The EBS and Markbass are pretty awesome but they would have to be to be that much more expensive.
I would like to see a list of best practice (and easy to carry) bass amps. My old practice bass amp is crap and I would like to have something more interesting...
Great comparisons but why wasn’t the Genzler 800 called to play?
As MB ML vintage user i have to vote for it, but i prefer the flat setting not the "V" and more gain on the edge of clipping :)
Mark Bass has fullness and depth
Glock and Sandberg deserve a mention. The first thing she played sounded amazing with the EBS. After that I loved the MB. But all sound good. TC great value and so compact.

There is a huge ommission in your list. The Trickfish 1K with a Mike Pope preamp. Nothing finer in the marketplace.
excellent playing, too.
To my ears, the EBS had the most beefy mids. The Markbass had the most low end with a more scooped sound. The Phil Jones had a nice flat tone but with a pleasant slight bump in the low-mids. The Darkglass had the most balanced, yet still musical, flat tone. The TC Electronic was the most transparent, but almost blocky sounding.

Markbass best, but TC is surprisingly good.
I like that stoner/doom sound so that DARKGLASS Imo sounded sick! 🤘🏼🔥🤘🏼
It is almost impossible to judge the quality of the amps in this test.Because the EQ settings are so different.
They're not all in the flat position.The EBS and Mark Bass for example have bass and treble boosted.
