Lew-Bass Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 After finding a bass I thought I'd go for, the price randomely hiked up £90 on the website, putting it slightly out of my budget and greatly alienating me. So, I'm calling on you for help for a new LH bass for no more than £300 (although exceptional examples abit more are OK) that has a fast neck, 5 strings, preferably soapbars. I'll be using fingerpicking but would like the bass to be decent for slap. Thank you so much for your help, I really don't know where else to look!

Jamesk86 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Check out the Warwick Rockbass collection, they don't charge extra for south Paws and they are well within your budget and good Axes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was £245 on bassmerchant and they had it in almond sunburst, that I'd never seen before in the streamer. It suddenly just rose to £340 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassmonster Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 i know you stated you were looking at a new bass, but have you completely rulled out the 2nd hand market, there really isn't that much in your price range new, the kind of stuff your looking at starts at around £400 and there isn't alot around for us lefties (in my experience) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ideal bass would be a Spector, which I found RH models on the net for under £300! But not any of the models they do LH, and you can only seem to get LH Spectors overseas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
