    After having a noodle on an Ibanez I do like the narrow neck so will hold out for something modern styled with a narrowish neck Will try and stick to my price range of £200 - and a bit if it's the right one :-). Will post in the wanted section also but not sure if that gets much attention. I live in the Oxford area if anyone is selling.... OX97AE Cheers

    Had a quick go on the Ibanez SRMD200, lovely little bass. Its a 32" scale but was a bit of a bargain for £250 new. Might be looking second hand for Ibanez. The neck seemed to suit me fine.

    Thanks again for all the replies... shortlist for basses to look for: Bass Collection, Spector, Squier VM, Yamaha, Vintage and my original suggestion Harley Benton. It will get sorted.... step 2 will be buying another amp 😀

    Will be trying to get to a shop, but not that many around. Closest is PMT in Oxford, not counting the guitar shop in Thame which had 4 basses....

    Thanks for the replies, I mostly be having a bit of fun with a guitarirst and drummer. Will venture into rehersal rooms but won't be doing gigs. Just having a bit of fun and noodling around. Hence I want to keep it affordable. Budget for the bass is up to £200, been looking at Youtube channel from Bass the World and their reviews are fabourable towards the Harley Benton range. Just watched a review on a Cort Bass and I did like that also. Choice will be active vs passive. Played both in the past and I am turning into an old geezer who likes less buttons....so passive and amp without any program crap. Haven't thought about the amp to hard yet. Can use whatever is available at the rehersal studio... Either buy a small head and cab for home use or small combo. The advantage of the small head woudl be I can take it to rehersal and use one of the cabs theres. TC electronic seem to do some affordable small heads. Will do some browsing on the forum!! Cheers for replying Dennis

    So the unavoidable has happened, sold my rig (highway 1 precision and Genz Benz Contour) a couple years ago but being drawn back in to play bass with guitar buddy and drummer. Looking to keep it affordable, any experience with this Harley Benton model, JB-75MN (https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hbb1975_na.htm) . Reviews seem to be good on youtube. Not a lightweight but if that is the only concession. Also wondering if it is worth going for a model up from there to the MJ-4EB (https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_enhanced_mj_4eb_lake_blue.htm). It's double the price so not sure. Also lookig for an amp again, might be home use only or small head with cab so I only have to lug the head to the practice room. Cheers Dennis

    Scratches are very superficial on the body only (neck is smooth as silk and plays great), they are the kind you get when you use it and especially with the thin finish on these. Probably shouldn't have bothered mentioning them and let the pics speak for themselves.

    Found one of those luggage weighing scales... the bass comes in at 4.3 kg.

    What can I say, it's a P-Bass, Highway One Fender says: [color=#7F7F7F][font=Arial][b]American-made, lacquer finished, and now a Badass bridge![/b][/font][/color] [color=#7F7F7F][font=Arial]The American-made Precision Bass is a classic, the most widely played and enduringly popular bass worldwide. It was Fender's first bass and in all this time its design has only been refined, not changed. The Highway One P Bass is American made and sports a thin satin lacquer finish that looks great, lets the grain of the alder show through, and ages beautifully. Now the Highway One has been further upgraded with a Badass II bridge. Changing to a heavier bridge is the most common modification made by P Bass owners. The Highway One comes pre modified by Fender, along with cool '70s styling and the lowest price of any American-made Fender P Bass.[/font][/color] [color=#7F7F7F][font=Arial][b]FEATURES[/b][/font][/color][list] [*]American made [*]Alder body [*]Maple neck with rosewood fretboard [*]Traditional split single-coil pickup [*]Thin lacquer finish [*]Badass II bridge [/list] Serial number Z8105061 produced 2008-2009 In good nick, some scratches but nothing serious. Comes with bag. No Trade, Cash only Thanks Dennis Located near Thame Oxfordshire, work in Uxbridge during the week. Got no amp so bring one if you want to try (sorry!!) Pick up only, don't like shipping instruments.
