I have done a dummy booking for economy basic and main cabin, and both allows me to book a seat for free (including MCE) but don't know if I get a free check in bag? The fare difference isn't huge £120 vs £183, but no point spending an extra £63 unless I have to.

Yes, contrary to BA own policy, AA allow status holders (even BAEC Silver) baggage allowance on an handbag only fare.
