Newbie - looking for first bass amp

I had to initially get over the dislike of an amp line named "Rumble." That's sounds like the opposite of the clarity and crispness I want in my bass tone.

But I bought a used Fender 100. I loved it so much I have since bought three more (all used), and now have the 40, 100, 200, and 500.

I've gigged with the latter two, and actually slightly prefer the tone of the 200 over the 500.

One of the good things about the Fender Rumble bass amps is that there are so many around that used ones come up often. Their popularity also means that you should be able to easily sell it in the future as circumstances warrant.
