DrBike Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 [quote name='grumpyguts' timestamp='1480756930' post='3186887'] If new a Sire Marcus Miller, I have one - it's good. [/quote] Bugger, there was me thinking that I didn't need another bass and now I've seen that you can get these for just over £300 from Thomann.

Huge Hands Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 [quote name='fleabag' timestamp='1480955717' post='3188387'] Another vote for the Sire V7 Miller. I have the Natural Ash model. Just be aware that its active, because some prefer passive [/quote] Unless they've changed the electronics since mine was made, you can play them in passive mode too. +1 for the Sire V7!

Geek99 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 You should be able to get a decent jap fender for that money, or a battered US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Blade Tetra. I'd have another one in a heartbeat; the single best Jazz I've ever played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 (edited) [quote name='Graham' timestamp='1481028215' post='3189074'] Not for sub-£500 this side of the pond Also, being an L2500 player myself I wouldn't get one of these if it was a traditional jazz sound I was after [/quote] Agreed, a US Jazz minimum, I'm thinking $1,200.00. What about a Squire. A MIJ Squire would be nice and shouldn't be any more than $500.00 I have a couple of Fender Ps and a Jazz, my G&L and many others. I can't tell or hear a difference in any of them except for my collection of semi hollows. My German made Hofner Club bass definitely has a sound of it's own.
