Can't go wrong with a Carvin (although their bass amps leave a lot to be desired).
They're in the same price range as a mid-high range J or P bass from Fender, but due to their factory-direct sales method (you pretty much decide EVERYTHING you want them to do to your bass and then they make it for you) they don't hold their value as well as other companies models do. Check on ebay for a used one. It'll be cheap, a joy to play and you won't have any problems with it.
Just make sure to get some new strings and have an extra battery lying around if the bass has active pickups.
