Would there be a noticable jump in quality getting a dedicated bass amp like this one vs me using the 10" combo tube amp I already own which I bought here on Monoprice? Casual player.

BEST ANSWER: I like having two amps at home - both a full-size amp and a portable amp. (The Stage Right portable amp has a headphone jack. Another nice feature of this portable amp is to plug in and play the track I'm working on.) Sound quality for bass IMHO depends largely on volume - at higher volumes you will notice a bigger difference between any two amps.

I own both, I’ve been playing for over 55 years. Own a Henricksen bud (9”x9”x9”) $1600. Finest jazz amp in the world, pure and clean . I also own both the amps you have a question about. Get the bass amp for basses, the tube amp for tube amp (£ender)style. Two different animals . I own them both different sound on each!

This amp gives a bass gives good punch and has a good ring to it. The compressor works very well as well as the equaliztion. The only thing I don't like about this amp is that there is no line out. There is a headphone jack but it turns off the speaker.

The noticeable jump would be in eq control and overall definition.. I find tube amps harsh out with bass frequencies and can be difficult to control.. The magic button on this amp is the compressor - it tames those huge bass frequency waves.

It is a different beast:
voiced for bass and solid state.
I actually was surprised by the tone and volume.
If you play bass, I am pretty sure you will like this better than the tube amp.

Yes there will. At very low volumes the tube amp will sound fine but the crossover in the bass amp is designed to maximize the lower frequencies a bass produces.

They make dedicated bass amps for a reason, and if you are going to play with any kind of loudness at all, you will benefit from using an actual bass amp.

What are the dimensions in inches by Height, Width, and Depth?
New User U
on Aug 22, 2022
BEST ANSWER: 17" x 12". Probably metric, since it's a fraction of an inch smaller both ways. 16" tall. A great size for lugging around, and good sound for the size. The compressor doesn't do a lot for me, but it's there.

Can this be used with a Monoprice regular electric guitar? (not a bass guitar)
A shopper
on Apr 26, 2020
BEST ANSWER: Yes... but why would you want to? You can get the guitar amp for $30 less, and it has wider frequency range along with overdrive and a spring reverb... it's much more suited for the noises that a guitar will make.
There's a concern with trying to use a bass with a guitar amp because of the potential for overworking the amp. There's no such concern going the other way, but there's just no benefit to doing it.

Is the cabinet MDF or plywood?
New User U
on Dec 19, 2021
BEST ANSWER: I haven’t tried to peal back the Tolex Vinyl covering on this amp but based on it’s weight I’d estimate that it’s probably a combination of MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) and Veneer Plywood. Regardless, I sensed absolutely no rattling or vibration issues due to cranking this amp so I think that the amps overall construction is pretty good and very durable. It sounds great in a small studio setting and it definitely is suitable for small gigs or as a front of house on stage if you use the XLR outputs to a main system. The Stage Right Monoprice 40-Watt 1x10 Guitar Combo Amplifier is also a pretty good buy and value especially with a “real” spring reverb. Again, both amps are well constructed and they both sound great. Next purchase will probably be the Stage Right 15 Watt tube amp.

Excellent for practice
Great practice amp, I just love it. I can plug in my laptop through the headphones jack and jam with my favorite songs. Highly recommended this amp at a price you can't beat. Plus I can plug in my headphones and still get quality sound.

A perfect small amp for practice or small venues. I only wish the headphone and aux. jacks were 1/4?. Not a problem but would be nice.

Good amp, good deal, nonexistent customer service
No issues with the amp. I like it and it's a good deal.
However, I have major issues with the 5 watt tube amp and the company has never responded to me, despite my attempting numerous times in various ways to get help.
The 5 watt tube amp continually cuts to half volume and back, every minute or two.
You can see me pointing this out in my review of the amp, where I said that I was going to buy all new cables, to try and fix it.
Well the new cables changed nothing.
In desperation, I described my issue on the Amazon question page for that amp and a Monoprice representative told me to get new cables.
I have purchased 2 amps and their top dollar guitar from Monoprice, based on reviews by Jimmy Stewart, saying that he got good customer service. Maybe you need to have a lot of YouTube followers to get service here? Don't tell me to call them. I don't have a phone.

SR Nice Bass Amp
The Stage Right 40 Amp Bass amp is a nice practice and small gig amp. My Bass guitar is an Ibanez Short Scale and sounds great with this amp. I use it in the Family Room to play along with songs on Youtube! It is very easily carried to band practice and small gigs. Mic it with a mike through mixing board, I am sure it could be used with larger menus. It also arrived within a few short days from ordering.
