Blast from the past there Doc as these were very popular in the 1980's.
As for speakers, a higher rated wattage will give you a cleaner sound, not exactly what you want in a guitar amp but precisely what is required in any Bass rig. Celestion, Eminence, Jensen are all good options and some of their websites may even have sound clips to help with making a better informed choice. A lot depends on the overall tone you want as some will be more upper mid biased and that tends to be a major characteristic with Celestions that I have previously used and made it easier to hear yourself on stage without blasting the venue away with too much bottom end stage sound.
