I play old time Appalachian and Scott’s/Irish fiddle tunes and a little bluegrass (guitar and mandolin) I really don’t want to haul my Crate 40W amp out to the living room every time I want to practice, which is every day, so I think that what I want is a Vox Bass headphone amp, but know nothing about them.Cycling through the rhythm tacks was slightly more annoying than on the Vox, requiring a press and hold of the rhythm button to cycle through the tracks. This means if you are playing the bass at higher volumes on the overdrive setting, the rhythm track can be hard to hear.
