To give you a serious answer, we need a bit more info about your situation. First, are we talking one single amp for both bass and guitar or an amp for each instrument? Your post wasn't entirely clear. Second, what styles of music do you play, and when you play live, are you going to have PA reinforcement or carry the room with your stage volume?
Personally, I would totally abandon the idea of an all tube bass combo amp for live music. I don't even know if they make one for less than $600, and if they do, it's going to be stupid heavy and in all likelihood won't be able to hold it together in the low end at gig volumes (unless you're going for the distorted bass tone).
For guitar, you can get a lot of amp for $600 if you buy used. I can't really give you good suggestion without know what you play. Do you need clean volume or are you going to be playing mostly distorted?

it is small, cheap and it has a effect loop... while most small tube amps never have that..
