Im new to 6 strings

[Danbass7]

Any ideas on ones that are easier to play than the average 6er ? , I need a narrow, and slim neck too...and short scale if its possible (not a huge issue though)
[i]I have a wanted post going too if anyone is selling one around £250-£300 (and abviously less ) that matches the description above[/i]
What sorta stuff should I look for, I have been advised a Peavey Grind or Cirrus 6er so far ?
I play mainly pick bass by the way if that counts out any strange bridge designs.
I have been searching for a few weeks now, but once again I thought I would ask around here for some proper advice

Cheers !

Tobias 6ers always seem to have a fairly slim neck, not sure on the price though.

Low B strings are floppy enough on 34" scales that I really wouldn't want to go any shorter! I was very impressed by the Peavey Grind 6 I tried a couple of years ago - pick one that sounds good acoustically and then upgrade the pickups when funds allow.

As soon as my Shuker is built I will have a Tobias Pro 6 with EMGs up for sale. Hopefully wont be too long to wait now. They have a nice slim string spacing, at 16mm. Very easy to play. It's defintely in your price range too. I'll keep you posted and am happy to give you more details.

The Peavey Grind BXP is a great value 6 string. If I were in the market for a 6 on that budget i'd go for that.

i've played a tobias before and they seemed nice enough so +1 on that

Axl Tiger. I had one and it had a less bulky neck than any other 6-string I tried.
