I used to have a tube Ampeg SC160 (not sure if that was the model, but I got it in the late 80s) that I loved the tone of. I did run bass and guitar synth stuff through it and it seemed to handle fine. I miss that ol' amp. The only reason I got rid of it was it was amazingly heavy and I got tired of trying to stuff it in the trunk of my Subaru.
