Fil1ip 67 Posted June 9, 2020 Hello all, I really want to buy a new bass but just don't know what to buy (first world problems) A little background info: a few years ago 2004ish I bought a P bass 'cheap brand' then traded it in for an epiphone les Paul bass. 2005ish I bought a USA highway one P bass and kept it for a few years until I had to sell it in 2010. Fast forward to 2019 I bought a mark Tremonti PRS guitar to try out but soon after I went back to wanting a bass so I bought a Vintage bass from a lad at work for little money to try it back out. I have now sold the PRS and only have the vintage bass but really fancy a something else. I have been offered a fender MIM p bass with 1/4 pounders and hard case for £425 but I also fancy something a little different. I have looked at various basses and different companies but not sure if to buy a mim or hold out for a USA or try a different brand etc I like the look of the Yamaha bb734. I don't want to spend a fortune as I am not very good as of yet but I would like to buy a bass that will keep me interested and that I would like to keep for a while if not for ever Thank you Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jezzaboy 759 Posted June 9, 2020 I think that you should buy a Yamaha BB734 as well, in the best looking black colour! In fact there may just be a really nice s/h one in the classified at the moment.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Dare 1,970 Posted June 9, 2020 Cort do some decent mid range instruments. If you don't want to push the boat out too much, they're worth looking at. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
