Best practice amp for both bass and guitar?

I had an Ampeg Portaflex 20T for bass practice that I thought was OKish for bass, though didn't make it sing.  When I finally managed to get my hands on the bass amp I'd been looking for since I started playing, I let my daughter have the ampeg for her guitar practice.  It makes a MUCH better guitar amp than a bass amp, IMHO.   Very varied tones, and finally the missing overdrive appears.   I think it likes to see quite a high output pickup, other than that, I'd recommend trying one as bass or guitar amp.  All valve, 4Ohm or 8 Ohm and you don't need a cab connected.  There should be some cheap ones around as Kenny's were selling them at £275 until quite recently.
