Bass and Keyboard amps for guitars

grasspicker · December 23rd, 2007, 08:04 PM

Is anyone gigging with any of the smaller new bass or keyboard amps?
I've been researching this forum and have already picked up on the Line 6 and all the new Fender options. Then I stumbled across some bass/keyboard rigs and starting looking at the 150 wt variety. I plan on visiting my local Guitar Center and checking things out.
My goal is to have something clean without any of the modeling/effects/electronics...as most of the band's material is country.
I've been playing nothing but acoustic bluegrass for the past 15 years and have regrouped with my old late 70's band. It is really pretty interesting getting back into playing electric again.
I'm currently using an early '90's Peavey Studio Chorus 70 but need something a bit more stout than that to play clean and out front.
Thanks!

It's what I used when I played rhythm acoustic for a "Red-Dirt" band in Plano, TX a couple of years ago. I've also used it as a bass amp until recently when I decided to switch to bass on a new "Red-Dirt" project out of Southlake.
