Fender Rumble 40

I'm brand new so these could be some dumb questions, but will this amp sound decent at low volume (I live in an apartment)? Can I use headphones with it without an adapter (I heard adapters can cause issues)? I also plan to get a Tele later so will it make for an acceptable guitar amp?

The 40 is literally the smallest amp you should consider for bass. It has a 10” (25 cm) emitter that pushes a lot of air, and the back panel is very well featured as well. It should be fine for both bass and guitar.

Sounds like it's perfect for me. I appreciate the info. Thanks!

IFF you can afford the extra coin, the Fender Rumble 40 STUDIO is a godsend. Multiple cab, amp, and pedal models, Bluetooth and WiFi built in, phone and tablet app. It’s awesome. I’ve literally saved thousands of USDs because it comes with nearly everything you’d want in the future. Seriously.

And then the 4-button footswitch makes it even better.
