Standby is a usefull feature on a tube amp, as it keeps the tubes warm and saturated, but cuts off the output to the speaker. Standby should be used when on a break, but not as a true "on/off" switch.
No, it is not a tube amp, it is a solid state amp. - Shred til your dead
Have you tried changing the settings on your amp? there could be too much gain. If you have tried this, there may be a hole or other form of damage in the speaker. take a look if you can. They can sometimes be fixed, but if not you could be looking at buying a new amp.

A tube guitar amplifier basically is a large speaker which contains tubes inside the amplifier box for guitar use. Some are vintage and some are classic.

Years ago all we had was tube amplifiers. As long as its a bass amp (so you don't blow out the speakers) there is no problem.
It all depends what sound you are looking for, and how much money you are willing to spend. If you can afford a good tube amp, then go for it, because you are going to get much much better sound from a tube amplifier.
No.
How long will it take to get an answer?
Yes, you definitely can. Many bass amps are tube.

The best guitar tube amp is debatable and will vary by people's own tastes. However, you if you are looking for the best value, you will want to try Bugera amps.
The main reason people buy a tube amp is for the power tube distortion. A lot of people look for lower wattage amp (between 1.5 and 15 WATTS) so when they turn it up louder they get the natural tube "mud" on the sound. If your amp is beginning to distort or become muddy at higher volumes then you are pushing your power tubes. This will not damage the amp but it may damage your sound. I recommend buying a new amp with a higher wattage rating. This extra "head room" will give you the ability to play louder without distorting.
Well, its not really about time unless you have a 4 amp charger.( if you have a four amp charger you can charge it 15-30 min, and feel if the battery is warm to the touch. If not charge for another minute or so. If it still isn't warm charge it for 2 1/2 minutes) If you have something less than 4 amps its about how warm it is. Keep charging it until it is warm to the touch.
A .6 amp charger is a trickle charger. It would take days to charge a dead 12 volt battery with this charger. You need a 10 amp charger which will charge it in a couple of hours.
