Need help with a Amp
hey guys
i was just wondering what kind of amps are good, Im in a band currently that me and my friends started a little while ago, but ive noticed a real amp problem. at home ive been using a dean markley...i think its only 20 watts, and in my friend's garage were using a PA system that my bass, a guitar, and 2 mics are going through, so i thought that i should probably get a amp for just my bass but i dont really know anything about amps.
so if you guys could send me some replys with what companies are good and what kinda prices im looking at i'd really appreciate it
thanks

now your learning 
ok well i play guitar and not bass so dont know of the amps are different but id say get a more powerful amp(more watts) i like the marshall ones (again guitar not bass) also the messa boogie arny bad but if you dont wanna be paying the big bucks then huh maybe go down to your local musci store and just plug and and see what sounds good what sounds like shit ect

GK definately. They are my favorite bass amp. Them and old Fenders that distorted a bit a high volumes (i.e. Bassman 60). Unless you are playing for people, micing into the PA, which I don't think you are doing, sounds like your just going directly into it, I'd suggest practicing with just amp power.
