I'm was going to go for the obvious used options, ie. Hohner Jack / B2A are usually very reasonable, but instead I'm going to go for one of your other suggestions - I've been using a Cort Artisan Space 4 for the last couple of years (started with a Space 5 first) and they're a great, compact bass. Very light, too. I keep mine permanently in the boot of the car as a backup, or teaching bass. Highly recommended!

 

 

Yes the most obvious option really! How do you find it? I don't really like the colours!!!!!!

It's a very clean sounding bass. Very light. Very fast for slappage, and pretty punchy. There's not much to like. At this money the colours really don't matter. It's a great playing and sounding bass for significantly less money than a Fender Player II.

I've been taking my Steinberger Spirit away in my campervan for years.  Cheap to buy, especially used, solidly built, stay in tune for months.

 

They pack away in a small gig bag (supplied with the bass) and I've actually gigged mine and it's excellent.  The extension on the bottom of the body makes it easy to play sitting down too.  I take mine to gigs as a backup - fortunately, I've never needed it.

 

There's some useful information on them in this old thread.
