id say if you can get yer hands on one for pretty cheap, go for it.  i have a concert lead and a concert bass... had a problem with the lead cutting out (probably a bad heat sensing circuit), possibly the same problem with the bass (but i think it just got pulled out of the outlet durin a gig).

if possible, i would go for a tube head, but thats just my preference. however the concert bass has some good tone and decent amount of volume... but no reverb! what ya should do, is buy a concert lead instead and use it for bass...they are almost identical; the bass has one channel and no reverb.

i don't really need reverb. all i want is the amp to be pretty loud, and not clip. it also needs to be able to power 4x12"s

If you want LOUD and don't mind lugging it around, go for the 300T modern SUNN bass all tube 300 watt head (no longer made - at least under this name).  It will drive those 4x12's and then some.  Absolutely the best high wattage bass head I have ever played.  I also have the lower 65 watt vintage 1968 200s head - the best lower watt bass head I ever played.  You can probably get both on the cheap.

man, i would like a 300t, but the cheapest i have seen them go for is like 600. im getting a concert bass for 250 shipped so id like to go for that if it will work for me.
