New Amp Choice

Hi everyone new here, been reading this forum for awhile and thought I`d post.

I may get either a Shuttle 6 or TC Sticcato with a 112 for now. Been watching You tube Marlow DK-Damn he`s good.

This will be my first bass amp. I think it will be great for a practice amp(has hd phones & CD imputs- also great for small jams with a few buddies from the old days(60-70s) of music playing(I played a B3, fender Rhoads,tenor sax and guitar back then)

Fast forward - bought a Squier VM jazz 4 to see if I wanted to also learn bass---and yeh I loves me some funky bottom and at my age(59) wish I`d done it long ago.

Now I`m gassing for a good amp and later on a EBMM Stingray 4.

Anyway thats my story and I sticken to it.

PS-Now I`m using a Vox Chambridge 30 112 Guitar amp played at low volume or with my Sony MDR7506 HD Phones and an adaptor so I can play with CDs or Ipod.

What ya think?

I like the Mesa Walkabout but I can`t use Hd phones with it and the little lady might get mid evil on my butt during my can`t sleep late night practice-yeh 30yrs later and I`m still Pwhipped.
