Amps & Effects

For 2021 we are excited to announce the godfather of gospel bass players, the legendary Andrew Gouché has joined the Markbass family!  A Grammy Award winning producer with over 30 years of experience as the bassist for many R&B and Gospel legends as Prince and the New Power Generation, Gladys Knight, Andraé Crouch, The Winans and musical director for Chaka Khan, he got regular call for recording sessions across all genres including Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones, Julio Iglesias, Madonna, Snoop Dogg, Warren G, Earth, Wind & Fire, Aretha Franklin, Y’anna, Hidden Beach Unwrapped Series, Jimmy Reid, LA Jazz Syndicate, Smokey Robinson, Patti LaBelle, Judith Hill, Kirk Franklin, Donna Summer ... with his distintive bass sound Andrew has made an indelible mark on the history of Gospel and R&B music, inspiring today’s generation of bassists.

Having played our amplifiers at several events, Andrew fell in love with Markbass’ tone and character.  So in partnership with Andrew, we’ve been working together over the past year to make an amplifier head that has his own unique sound - instinctively. We’re proud to introduce the amazing Little AG 1000, designed with Andrew -  built by Markbass.
