Absolutely. Just don't crank it like you would a bass amp.

Most guys I know that have done that think its to bright or it doesnt have enough bass. But I like a bright bass sound somewhat. I would have to be a good keyboard amp. You can always EQ the bass or the amp.

Now-a-days I'd say no... But if you can find an old Peavey keyboard amp with a Blackwidow speaker, you can crank that bad boy up...

I've heard the old Fender KXR keyboard amps worked well for bass too.

I found this to just about always work with either an bass onboard or exturnal pre-amp. Work means gets you through the situation.

Alright, Thanks!!! I'm going to probably try this later on, Lord willing, when I get me a bass guitar. We have an older version of a Fender speaker and a Peavey amp so it should work fine I guess. :)

The Roland KC amps are acceptable to basses depending on how you play.  I had to use one for
a rehearsal when the SM-900 fuse blew.
