Its really personal preference. Just get out there and try as many different brands as you can and then choose for yourself. If you want more of an answer, I know that Ashdown amps have a nice bassy tone to them, so if your looking for something like that id recommend them. If you want something a bit brighter Hartke, Markbass and Aguilar are all good. If you want something cheap then get s Fender, theyre not great amps but theyre sturdy and cheap generally.

Can an electric guitar be played on a bass guitar amp?
I can't think of any issues other than the regular guitar amp may not have the size of speakers to give the best bass sound. ------ Guitar amps are made to output guitar frequencies. Bass amps are made to output bass frequencies. If you interchange the two, you will not do damage but at some point the amp will cut out. I believe it was Tony Iommi who used to play guitar through a bass amp to get some really nice bass distortion on his guitar. ------ I believe that after too much use, the low frequencies of a bass may damage the guitar amp. I'd say it's alright to use it with a guitar amp, but try to keep it in moderation.
Can you play an electric bass through a guitar amp?
They can plug in and work, but most guitar amps aren't built to give a solid bass output, so sound will be fuzzy/ weak. Best bet is to just get a small bass amp. A 15w Fender Rumble amp is about $150 and sounds great for home practice.

How do you make a bass amp sound like an electric guitar amp?
If you are using a guitar amp as a pre-amp to a bass amp (plugging your guitar into a guitar amp, and then patching the guitar amp to the bass amp), do not do this. Bass, acoustic guitar, and vocals (mics) are low impedence, where guitars are high impedence. You can very easily damage your equipment doing this sort of thing. If you are trying to get guitar sounds out of a bass amp, in my opinion, it's next to impossible. There is only one type of bass amp that I know of that you can accomplish this with...Ampeg has a series of bass amps with "switchable tweeters", meaning that they come equipped with tweeters, but you can turn them in order to use rig as a bass amp, and turn them on in order to play an acoustic guitar thru the bass amp. Since an acoustic guitar is low impedence, this works fairly well. You can also plug in an electric to this setup, even tho an electric guitar is high impedence...It's possible to plug in a high impedence instrument into a low impedence amp, but it's not advisable to plug in a low impedence instrument into a high impedence amp.
