Really really small amp!

Outside the box.... cut a 6 inch hole in one of the bunck/seats and install a driver. Also, right beside that, install a input. Pick up any small amp you like that fits and you are done.

@stratovani ,
Have you discounted a small, multiuse speaker such as the JBL Charge 4?

Sorry, I've never heard of it, but I am always open to suggestions.

I mentioned it in post #67. Really really small amp!

It's pretty nuts how much sound it produces and how good it sounds. Battery life is also amazing. I guarantee it would sound way better than the little plastic amp mentioned above. Add a preamp pedal of your choice.

Being in such a small space, it would seem smart to use something that is dual purpose. Great for listening to music and then great for playing bass through, too.

If you get a preamp pedal with aux in and headphones out, you would have several bases covered in a small, multipurpose setup.

If you can find a used Shuttle 3.0-8T or 10T, that would be a potent trailer rig that would be giggable within reason.

They don’t show up often, but they are out there.

I’ve been playing bass for over 30 years. The shuttle-3.0-8T is the best purchase I have ever made. As someone who occasionally (I think like most people here) flips gear for the next (hopefully) best thing, I’ve told my wife to NEVER let me sell my Genz. As a combo it is great and full-range but the cherry on top is pulling out the 300W head and using it with any big cabinet and giving you the tone, and tone control that is unmatched.

Don't laugh. If you really want to save space and have a completely multi-use item, get a JBL Charge 4 Bluetooth speaker and a preamp pedal. I sometimes play through my son's Charge 4 via the 3.5 mm connector and it sounds great. Oddly and satisfyingly very good.

I do this, Bass >Zoom B1xon > JBL Flip Essential
