Hello all. My husband is a bassist in a local covers band, and they are getting a lot more gigs to play .The bass he currently plays is quite old and holds a lot of sentimental value. He's been wanting to buy a new one for a long time as he wants to keep this bass in perfect condition. I've decided it's time he got his well deserved new bass so it's going to be my gift to him! I know it's a very personal item to buy and he needs to play and choose the right one for him. I have a budget of about £300 and am looking for the most helpful place to visit. Can anyone point us in the right direction, and even give some ideas on basses within the budget? Many thanks in advance!
