Hereās my current bedroom set -up - ran out of space and working from the top of a chest of drawers was not ideal - so I got a standing desk thing from IKEA
New monitors added, plus I recently got a Mother 32 to double down on synth stuff

Thinking of getting something like a Boss Katana mini amp, or the Vox Pathfinder, or the Yamaha THR5. One of those lunchbox-size guitar amps. Itās purely for tooling around in my bedroom and to replace the piece of shit Marshall 10W jobbie that I rescued from a skip a decade ago.
Any opinions on any of those?
Sorry, meant for guitar. Iāve got an entry level Yamaha guitar, which plays fine (for my non-existent skill level), but sounds absolute gash through the dreadful Marshall thing.
The Fender Mustang GT40 is pretty good might be a bit too big though
I have the THR10 - itās pretty decent for a quick āplug in and playā and the ability to plug in your phone to play along with tunes is good. The effects are limited as far as tweakability but sound good enough
It also doubles as my only ābass ampā - which I assume is what youāll be using it for

Iāve read more now and see you do want it for guitar
The guitar tones are decent Iād say, does a clean twin type sound, an ac30 style crunch, Marshall style and then something more hi gain like a boogie or something
I donāt think drive pedals plugged into it sound quite right (think this is true of all digital type amps) - better if you just use the drive from the amp itself

Thinking of getting a Squier VM Jazzmaster in sonic blue as a birthday present from me to me. The J Mascis looks nice too but Iāve read that the pickups are more P90 than JM, which is fine, but not a Jazzmaster.

If it comes with the bridge the Jaguar one comes with change it, itās bloody awful.
It does and yes, he should absolutely change it. Eps has dealt with Staytrem before I think.

You mean this one or the newer classic vibe one?
Yeah the bridge is a bit shit, Iāve still not bothered changing mine, mind. Good guitar otherwise.
This one: Squier Classic Vibe 60s Jazzmaster Laurel Fingerboard Sonic Blue - Andertons Music Co.
Looks like it already has Mustang-style bridge saddles?
Oh, itās the new CV one! A definite improvement.

It certainly looks like a better bridge. Doesnāt quite look like a mustang one, but does look like itās closer to that than the one on the VM Jazz

Iām fully mentally prepared for the āstock Jazzmaster bridges are a big pile of wankā truism to apply here, but fingers crossed that it doesnāt.
