New Help with getting new amp

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys, so I decided to just sell my bass that I never use. Noone seems interested on Craigslist so I'm gonna sell it to Guitar Center. And so I figured to get a new amp in exchange since the only amp I have was literally just the cheapest one I was able to find in GC, A Pervey 10watt, All I can say is you get what you paid for. It does the job, but it gets a bit of static and if I have it too loud it sounds like its struggling.

Anyways whats a good (practice) amp to get from GC for around 150 or less. I would also be able to get a 10% discount on it since I'll be trading my gear.

An amp with nice features would be nice but it can't be too loud or big.

My Suggestiom would be an Acoustic B-20 for 149.99 They are well rated and should be a step up from what you have now.

For 150 or less you are going to have to find a used combo or something

Why don't you try selling it here. You might get more then selling it at GC.

I thought about it, I just honestly dont want to go through the hassle of shipping it out. Though I live in New York City so maybe I'll have a good chance. And I figured it'd be a good chance to get a new and better amp
