Mykesbass Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 2nd hand Cort, Ibanez or Yamaha. Cort GB75 should be in that price bracket and is a lovely bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Ibanez 505 / 605 / 705 - lovely basses, especially if you like thin necks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBus Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Cort Action V DLX. Mine cost me £250 new. Lovely neck and sounds good too. I don't think it has a real figured top though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86BKil3CEcc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Schecter diamond series, if you can get them this side of the pond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowieBass Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Second hand Squier Deluxe Jazz V Active or a new Squier VM Precision V - these will be slightly wider string spacing than say an Ibanez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ras52 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 [quote name='Mykesbass' timestamp='1441558451' post='2859809'] 2nd hand Cort, Ibanez or Yamaha. Cort GB75 should be in that price bracket and is a lovely bass. [/quote] +1. I have an Ibanez 705 (active, slim neck) which I bought s/h in that range, and a Yamaha BB425 (passive, wider neck), which I believe can be bought new for less that that!
