Christmas is coming up and im thinking of *asking* for a bass amp. I have a MM P bass right now and im playing into a dinky 15 watt amp. I dont plan on playing gigs anytime soon, so I dont need some monster of an amp, maybe somthing around 40 to 100 watts. O and my price range is probably up to 285$ (us). And my style of play is pretty much anything from punk to jass.

Ive been looking at multiple music sites plus ebay, and am not really sure what to look for. So far ive found this http://www.music123.com/Peavey-MAX-115-Bass-Combo-Amp-i145542.music

Any help would be much MUCH appreceited. :thumb:

behringers are pretty cheap and good quility for the price o.O some may say different but i havn't had any real problems with them. They dont give the best tone, but they are nice overall

I have a Hartky practice amp, I think it's 70 watts. I have used it with a drummer successfully, although I ended up with the volume at 9 :p But it got me by...

I think they are about $250-$300.

Edit: I just checked it, it's an A70 and they're about $350, so maybe out of your price range...

Search ebay for stuff in your local area. That way you wont have to pay shipping. You'll get the best value that way.
