A New amp or a new Bass?

Before you buy the amp, look on craigslist. I bought a barely used GK 215 for half the price (500 watts). I was at a time when I wanted a bass amp, so I went on musiciansfriend.com and found a nice cheap one (100 watts). If you save your money a little longer, you could go on craigslist and maybe even find a better amp.
