I have a Feder tube amp. It is pretty freakin’ loud. I joined up with a bunch of guys and the drummer played an electric kit, so he could keep it down! But, my amp would have been the loudest thing in the room.
I borrowed a buddies solid state Marshall. Was perfect. The band split, but my buddy didn’t need the amp back. Good for me, I could practice and be in the same room as the amp. Been almost 2yrs.
Now, he has asked for it back for a project he’s starting.
So, what do I want?
I’d like it to be quite enough I can turn it down and it’s still clear.
I’d like to it to be powerful enough to take to a practice.
I’d like it to have a decent clean tone.
Take pedals…
Not overly interested (hung up) on a name. Used is OK. Not looking to bust the bank. $200-500 ish.
The Fender Rumble line is very popular among bassists. I started with a 40 watt, then went to 100 watt, and now I have 500 watt amp head with 115 cab. The rumbles sound great for bass, even when dialed down. https://www.sweetwater.com/fender-rumble/series
I just bought a bass and know next to nothing about it. I already had the Spark by
Positive Grid 40watt. Works for electric guitar, acoustic and bass. Just what I have for now.
Good luck!
