(btw, I really dont know about its sound quality.) Read some reviews on it if your interested in more bang for your buck..

yeah dude. that's my setup. I also have a 100 watt, fridge-sized Acoustic. They're easily the best amps on the planet.

As for basses, I can run with a 4 string, but i usually like 5 strings. I just kind of dig the low B. The Fernandes just has tone I like. I play a Fernandes Atlas 5 in cherry red. I also own a Squier J Bass, and it's not bad, but i don't play it too often. it ran about 400$, because it came with a 50$ Fender rumble 15 watt. that's still my practice amp.
