Epiphone Junior Valve

I have the Epiphone Valve Jr. head with an Avatar 112 guitar cab and it sounds real good for guitar at a cheap price. I haven't tried my Bass through it but I don't "think" it has enough headroom or wattage to be much more than a very low volume Bass practice rig. I'll try it with the four string this weekend and post back.
They are not bad little amps, and can do bass at low volumes. They just don't have the headroom for any big sound. Also, there are quite a few sites on the net about modifying them to sound better as far as noise goes.
People, who said anything about clean headroom?!? This is for BALLS OUT OVERDRIVE at sane volumes.

Yeah, it could do that. just crank the crap out of it. A single el84 is not very loud...
I have recorded mine with guitar, but I tried a practice with bass, and the voicing was just too mid present and nasty. I haven't tried it much for all out bass wailing.
