What do you suggest

Right heres the scenario.
My sons Mesa rig is possibly sold so we have about a grand to play with.DONT TELL HIM...It can be a surprise
My Grandaughter is currently an "intermediate bassist".....I call it could do better... but never in her presence
Right.then.....Need a combo around 300 watts for her, that if is not what is required can be shifted without too much of a loss.
Dont want a Prometheus....but has to be a combo

What are your thoughts

Shamelessly plugging my line6 300pro multiple amp sounds / effects. It's in the for sale section now. Pm me if you want. Other than that I strongly recommend going second hand. Maybe hartke or ashdown, both seem to sell cheap second hand which would mean you wouldn't make a big loss.

Good luck in your search.

I'm gonna suggest (surprise surprise) a Markbass combo.
Light, loud & ticks all your boxes. I spent ages looking for a combo & ended up with the 2x10 but the 1x12 may be a more portable option for her.

With your parameters..

Markbass 102 combo.

Will amp up to 500watts with another cab underneath for versatility.
Cracking little amp and the cab design works, IME.
