Recommendations for an ex guitar player

[CaptainBoxman]

Hey folks

New guy here. I have a slightly less conventional situation than most beginners, in that I've transferred over from guitar after 12 years, since discovering that bass doesn't trigger my tendonitis anywhere near as badly as guitar.

I'm already a reasonable enough player and not looking for a "starter" amp, but I am looking for a good amp to restart with. I know enough about brands and what generally to look for in an amp, but less so about the actual options and models on the market, especially since I've taken time out.

Hopefully looking to get something that could reasonably be used indoors in terraced housing, as well as loud enough to play small gigs, without being a pile of cheap nonsense. I mostly ask here because I don't have any real dedicated guitar shops near to me, so I need an informed sense when I can finally get myself into one.

I see a lot of guys excited about the Rumble series, but I can't tell whether it's under or overkill for my needs, and I don't know what else is similar out there.

Thanks in advance

Welcome! There's an enormous variety to choose from. Knowing your budget and your musical tastes would help the discussion along.
The new Rumble series does indeed get a lot of positive reviews. The 200 combo might be the right size in the series for your needs. Other good combos are Ampeg BA-115, TC Electronics BG250-115 or -210. For a bit more coin you could go with a Genzler MG350 combo. Lots of choices!
