Personally, I think the trem bar is overrated. I have one on my 'Strat, and rarely use it. You can always get a "whammy pedal" that has the same effect, and as a side benefit it won't mess with your guitar's tuning as much!
But the bottom line is that it's your guitar - if a trem bar is important to you, then it doesn't matter if anybody else thinks it's an important thing to have.....the guitar that you love and can't keep your eyes (or hands!) off of is the one you'll play most!
For the price range you're looking at for the amp, take a GOOD look at the Roland Cube 15 - it's right in your range, and I don't think you'd regret it.
