The world is your lobster, but I would be looking at good used Mike Lull or NYC Sadowsky basses. Best basses I've ever owned and played. Or. . . . a long shot, a Rob Allen Deep 4/5.

JoeEvans Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 (edited) Based on my recent experience of buying a used one, I think anyone with a good budget should at least consider commissioning a custom ACG. $4k will get you anything you want built, popped in a really good case and shipped to the US, with change for a party when it arrives.

So, one $150 squier affinity later … On that basis an HB P Bass kit for me as my mechanical and electrical skills far outweigh my musical talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconic Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 (edited) Depends if you like, boutique and/or off piste basses. If, like many and you don't, then it's down to the usual suspects. Think carefully, a spendy bass says a lot about it's owner, well it does to other anorak bass players😉 they will sum up your character, house decor, car, sex life just by it's profile, obviously no one else would give a toss, it's just a funny looking, long geetar thing.
