Buying a new bass, suggestions?[views:1452][posts:8]_______________________________________ [Feb 6,2006 2:57pm - Y Ddraig Goch ""] So what is a good sounding, sexy looking bass for an intermediate player, I usually stick with Ibanez but if I get interested in anything else I will buy it, I am buying new so I won't buy your old bass : (. my price range is up to 450 dollars. You the man now dog |

I was at the natick GC today and they had a few sweet deals on some, even the 5 strings are resonible. They had some sharp like Cort basses there, I didn't play them. Schetcher might have one cheap too. |

Just play a bunch of them because quality really differs from bass to bass. If you look around hard enough you can find a gem in your price range. Try Yamaha too, they make some great stuff. If you like the looks, the BB series basses killll |
