Should be enough for a good sized bar. You can't go wrong with a stack though, or atleast a half stack. How are the new hybrids anyway? I've never really tried them.

Gruzzy's got the right idea.
Depending on how loud the band plays on stage will determin what Wattage you need.Ive used a Marshall JCM 800 50W combo in a really small bar, and never had to mic up.
But when playing larger venues with a wider stage, you will need to mic up.As long as you can hear your amp on stage, it wont matter what the wattage is since the house PA will send it out louder anyways.
So what you hav is fine, as long as you can hear it over everything else.

most venues with mike up your amps anyway so you dont need an incredibly powerful amp, if you need a more powerful amp jus rent one for he night and see how it goes
