I was wondering what you guys think of a Fender Bassman 60 for use as a studio amp and as just to the overall tone of the thing. Is it worth the price???
 
So this is the one your looking at?

Never heard one of those. For recording bass I think you could do a lot better with some kind of direct preamp for 4 bills.
 
I'd spend $70 on an ART Tube MP; use it as a DI and go direct. You won't regret it if you're looking for a big, warm phat bass sound from a passive Fender bass. Oh yeah... then you can spend the other $320 on something else.
 
Well I want it for just jamming out once and a while and I want it for its sound to record.
Awhile back I rented a 100 watt version from my music store and it was like the my old amp was lo fi and this Bassman was HIFI digital. The bass actually filled the room evenly while my old amp seemed much more directional...
