From the Chairman

I would like to personally thank you for

selecting our VBA400 valve bass head.

Since I started Marshall Amplification in
1962 I have witnessed some incredible
breakthroughs and advances in amplifier
design technology, however there is an
inescapable magical tone that comes from
using a traditional Marshall valve amplifier.
Furthermore it is a tone that is just as valid
and just as much sought after today as it
was all those years ago when I had my first
shop in Hanwell, London.

What time and progress has given us is
the ability to make valve amps that are
more versatile. The new Marshall VBA400
is just that, a classic valve amp for bass
guitar, complete with all of the normal
attributes that you would expect from a
Marshall valve amp, such as warmth,
compression, controllable musical
distortion and of course that classic
Marshall tone, combined with modern day
versatility and safety features. As such, the
VBA400 is a classic valve bass amp for
today’s player.

I would like to wish you every success
with all of your musical endeavours and
also your new Marshall which I am sure you
will find a pleasure to play for many years
to come.

Yours Sincerely,
