    Most brands with low resale value. Two that I've had personal experience with are [b]G&L[/b] and [b]Ibanez[/b].

    If you have around £350 to spend, the [b]G&L Tributes[/b] are amazing, both the 4 and 5 strings and, as long as you can get on with the feel of it, it'll stomp on most other things in that category for versatility and quality.

    The [b]Ibanez[/b], at least for me, was a similar story. Bought a 5 string Prestige for £600 and it was only since trying out other, more expensive, basses that I realised what a silly price that was to pay for such a good instrument.

    Perhaps I'm being a bit biased here, but the [b]Alpher Instruments[/b] range of affordable basses, their [b]Prime[/b] range, is stupidly good value for what is essentially a custom built instrument. For £999 you get an instrument with pre-defined pickups and a small selection of woods to choose from but that is put together in the same way that their high end basses are. Compare that to most other popular brands and it comes in at under their prices for an instrument that's hand build in the UK. And if you're worried about having not heard much from them, just take a look at the recent reviews in this months Bass Guitar Magazine. To get something of that quality for £999 is crazy. I know there's one on my list. :)
