Help!!

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys, I am going to start to play the bass and I have to decide today wich amp and bass i am going to buy.
The bass I think it will be Ibanez SR 300.
The amp I Dont know.

Marshall MB 30 30 watts 1x10 speaker (150€)
Fender Rumble 30 30 watts 1x10speaker (160€)
Hartke 210-XL 200 watts 2x10 speaker (215€)
Hartke 115B-XL 200 watts 1x15 speaker (270€)
Ashdown combo five fifteen 100 watts 1x15 speaker (260€)
Ashdown MAG-115 250 watts 1x15 speaker (189€)
Ashdown MAG-410T 350 watts 4x10 speaker (250€)

The problem is i am going to buy bass in Portugal (price its quite more than other places) and the only cool amps i found in Portugal on the shop where i am going to buy the bass its marshall mb30, fender rumble 30 and ashdown five fifteen.
The other 4 its in spain, and its not so expensive. I dont know what to do...


Wich one u think has better quality/price?
And is it better an amp with 1x15 speaker or with 2x10 speaker ?
I want one to be audible while playing with drums and guitar.
To play at home, jam with friends and some gigs.

Really need help guys.
Thank you

the ashdown mag-115 looks like the best deal.

ditto. (as in, I agree, just in case you don't get the american idiom... )

30 watts will do NOTHING for you. You'll never be able to play with other musicians.

the one with a few more watts and a 410 will probably be louder, but if it's a combo amp (rather than a separate head and speaker cabinet), it's going to be VERY heavy and difficult to move around.
