In April, Bass Player magazine announced the winners of their first annual Reader's Choice Awards, and the Little Mark II emerged as the big winner, earning both Best Bass Head and Best All-Around New Product honours (Story here)
To celebrate this great honour, Marco De Virgiliis is producing a "Little Mark II Marco Limited Edition 08" version that will be released in September. Only 500 will be produced, and each one will be tested, approved and signed by Marco personally. This collector's item will sell fast, we have two coming in, so reserve one at Bassdirect now!
