I'm wanting a good, basic amp without all the effects and controls. I've had the Mustang's and now have a Boss Katena 50. I don't play in a band, just a novias who enjoys playing for myself. I want an amp that has a head phone jack and audio input so I can play my karaoke through it. I don't need or want all the presets and stuff that comes with the Mustangs. Just give me a decent sound with the three basic adjustments, bass, middle, and treble. I'm looking to spend up to around $300. Any suggestions?
Thanks...………..

Have you checked out Fender's "Champion" line of amps? Most of them have the features you want at the price point you prefer.

You could always pick up a used Frontman 25 and ignore the useless gain channel. Some of the new Fender cheapies are right up there with Burger King's lawn whopper in my book.
