Peavey MAX 100 1x10" Bass Guitar Amplifier
As someone who teaches from home (and gigs on the side) I was after an amp that could do both jobs without compromise on either end. At home I know that I can turn it up to any volume and have clarity in tone and strength, and when I want to practice out of hours I know that I won't be annoying the neighbours thanks to the inclusion of the headphone socket too.
Needless to say that even for its relatively small stature I am certain that it will stand its ground amongst even the heaviest of bands - in terms of loudness and power this stands up with the best of them. Sure, it might be physically smaller than other 100w combo amps on the market, but you wouldn't know this from just hearing it. The clean and distortion channels are crisp, allowing for all frequencies across the board to be properly articulated without anything being sacrificed.
In terms of hardware, it boasts a decent array of options on the interface that help dial in a tone that would benefit any style of player, and that clean channel especially is a great foundation for those players who wish to use pedals. It also has an in-built tuner - a welcome surprise to the amp, and a great addition for myself as a tutor to help my students visualise the tuning process.
This is a great solid bass combo amp that I would be recommending to other bass players I know. For power, compactness, clarity in tone, and looks too - this is a great amplifier.
