You should be able to get a Hartke HA3500 in the $200-250 range, maybe cheaper. Stupid loud and doesn't get dirty without pedals, plus those fancy light-up EQ sliders.

Re: Super Clean, Super Cheap!, Bass heads.
Got myself a Hartke HA3500. I'd recommend it, does what I need it to nicely.
Sounds phat with a Moog running through it or a fuzz'd up bass.

Re: Super Clean, Super Cheap!, Bass heads.
As far as what I'll be using it seriously for is basically just root notes and like background noise as far as recording but I would of course (and will most often) like to fuck around with fuzz, etc.

I used to have an Acoustic B200 but they make a version that's just the head. I'm not sure if they are under $200 but they were pretty nice.

The B200 is actually dirt cheap but I'm really liking the hartke so far.
