I'd go with the TC. Never liked Fender amps. That said, try both if you can!

This video & audio of our gig last week gives an idea of how well the Carvin and fEARful carried the night. Bass signal was about 20% into the PA, the amp and cab were doing the rest. I'm pleased with this rig.
Crowd loved it.

Well just so you will have two answers to your actual question I'd give a nod to the TC.

Oh yeah get a G-K, Ampeg, Hartke, Peavey, Marshall, Vox, Matchless, Hiwatt, Orange, Augular, Ashdown, Behringer, GC Acoustic, Ibanez, Line 6..................

The TC 450 is a better amp than the Fender. Plus it's loaded with features.

For a solid-state head, the TC is a definite winner.
