so i grabbed this whilst i was out today, there's a small guitar opened up in derby's shopping centre. pretty average gear and the sales staff are about 12, bonus is there quite discount happy, even when buying a sub £100 amp.

25 watts 8 inch speaker, it's not gonna light up a stage but sounds great for home bass use. can be used kicked back if you wish.

Well done, for your purposes that's pretty practical.

I know one of these days I'm gonna wind up with a Jim Dandy. My local shop sells em for $135.

It's pretty loud at home for 25 watts! Headhunter bass lines be a pumping!
