Yeah man, I wish someone would have told me that before.

I still wouldn't try it.

Surely a cheap bass amp can't be that hard to find.

i actually had a friend over today, and i plugged the bass in (a squire P-Bass) into my guitar amp and nothing really happened. i dont play very loud, and if i need to, ill probably buy a bass amp. i dont know. maybe i was lucky my speakers are still intact =P

note: i dont mean like a gutiar cabnent, these are the kind of speakers you put in your trunk and blast like insanity

but more importantly, what kind of bass would you suggest for slap/funk?
