Traynor YSR-1 and YC-610

Hey y'all,
This rig is on my local FB marketplace. Anyone familiar with this amp? I have an old Ampeg V4, originally made for guitar, but awesome for bass; I just keep the reverb turned down. Is this Traynor similar? Is the cab made for bass? Anyone have any experience with either piece in their rig? Thanks for any input!
 
I had a YSR-1 in the early '80s that was used for recording bass with. I ran it into a front-loaded folded horn cabinet I made that used a JBL 2225 driver. Sounded great for bass. I even used the tremolo and occasionally the reverb on it for bass.

I can't say anything about the YC-610, but my guess it's probably better for guitar unless used at reasonably low volume.
