I´ve borrowed a 108 for testing at home. It will just function as a practice amp, for living room use, when accompanying my wife on piano and so. I plugged my bass direct in and I think it does not sound bad at all! I will say it depends on which bass you are using. The ones I tested with so far (which is probably the ones I will be using in the living room) is my Squier Mustang CV 60´, as well as my Squier Bass VI, both stringed with La Bella flats. Haven't tested with active basses or rounder strings yet. It could be that these already is sounding so muffled. But as I pointed out - more than good enough for what I am using it for.
