DV Mark is an Italian guitar amplification brand based in San Giovanni Teatino, in the Abruzzo region of Italy. It was developed by Marco De Virgiliis, the electronic engineer who founded the bass amp company Markbass in 2001, as a sister brand applying the same design and manufacturing philosophy to guitar amplification. The company builds its products in Italy and shares a factory with Markbass.

The brand is known for compact, lightweight amplifier heads and combos, many built around neodymium speakers and solid-state power sections aimed at players who want portable rigs without sacrificing tone. Product lines include the Micro series of small-format heads and combos, the Multiamp modeling amp, and a range of cabinets, effect pedals, and accessories. DV Mark has developed products in collaboration with guitarists such as Greg Howe, Dean Brown, and Eric Gales, the latter associated with the RAW DAWG signature pedal.

DV Mark sits alongside Markbass within the broader Markbass group and distributes internationally through music retailers including Guitar Center, Musician's Friend, Andertons, and Thomann. Its identity centers on Italian manufacturing, portability, and collaboration with touring guitarists across jazz, fusion, blues, and rock styles.

DV Mark has 52 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Guitar Amplifier Heads, Combo Guitar Amplifiers, and Guitar Amplifier Cabinets. Their gear is featured by 19 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Jazz, and Funk / Soul. Notable users include Frank Gambale, Greg Howe, and Biréli Lagrène. Most DV Mark products fall in the mid-tier range — professional-grade without flagship pricing.
