5 string bass suggestions

yeah, but i dont think any of them are what im used to or am looking for. if i saved up for one of those it take me a long time considering i have no consistent income.

Wouldn't you rather wait and save up than buy something you're going to hate when you progress?

i dont think ill really hate it, my current bass isnt all that good, but i still love it. love in a non weird way

I've got a yamaha but it cost me $400 on sale so you probaly need to up your price range a lil bit

i dunno, im really liking the ESP. It sounds good to me, from what ive heard on youtube. but im gonna wait till i can try one out before i buy it.

What about this 1?

really great bass, altho it is in €'s, but should be around the same in $'s

i dont know, the esp is cheaper i think.

i dont know if i said this earlier but i found this one, looks nice, im gonna try it out at guitar center sometime. http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Squier-Affinity-5String-Jazz-Bass-V?sku=512619

i really like the sunburst finish.

Get the ESP. It's a damn good instrument. You've actually heard one.

the only problem is that i cant find a music store that has the exact model there, the only one that might have it is maybe 30 or more minutes away.

That's the closest Wal-Mart for me. Consider yourself lucky.

that's not a problem, That's how long I have to cycle to school every day.

The closest music store here is 30 minutes away, so going there isn't a problem.

Im having a similar problem at the moment. I want to try a Schecter Stilleto Custom 5 Bass, but I don't know anywhere that stocks it

i think im gonna try find a time i can get to the music store and try it out, but i shoul probably check if they have the model there.

30 mins is nothing, take the train or the bus or something

or have my dad drive me?

oh yeah, you're 13...

When you said it was a problem I asumed something as easy as that wasn't a possibility. I thought maybe your parents won't drive you anywhere or something.

i just dont think my parents would like driving 30 minutes there and back, im not even sure if they have ESPs yet.

You could check their website?

Just call them and ask if they have any [insert any bass you can imagine here] in stock

i know, its not that i cant, its just that i havent gotten to it yet
