I found this amp at Guitar Center. Any thoughts or opinions on it? It has the xlr outlet, small enough to handle, and free shipping. For the price, what do you think? Thanks.

No, the brand name of the amplifier is acoustic.

I stand corrected dog. So it would not work with an electric bass, correct?

you could play an electric thru it, but it would not sound very good.

I like te Fender 'Rumblers". low watt, extras, sound pretty good. affordable.

I bought a Behringer 45 watt bass amp last year that works really well for me. I think it was priced about the same as the acoustic your looking at.

Acoustic is a good brand perhaps you could find a good deal for electric basses. I have a Marshall 30W. I like its sound. You can also find more opinions in the Bass Players forum.
