Cort space 5 and the fluctuating prices …

[RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE]

I am in the process of making all my bass collection headless only . I have been mulling over whether to get a 5 string ( mainly due to the low b) .

I was thinking about getting something more expensive next year , but as I’m just messing around at home it’s probably a bit overkill to do so.

 

This brings me to the topic above . I noticed that for some reason, the black version of the space 5 is cheaper than the green one and I haven’t a clue why that is .

Not only that , the average price seems to be around the £ 749 mark . The prices are from Bassdirect ,and gear4music among others.

 

A couple of days ago , the green one was going for £649 on Gear4music and I should’ve snapped it up ! But tomorrow is Black Friday 😮‍💨!

This evening on the G4M website , the black one is £658 ( the cheapest I’ve seen so far) while the green one is £749 .

I just sent a message to G4M asking why the black one is cheaper. I’m not sure what to expect , but I’m a big fan of theirs . If they let me have the green one for £658 then I’ll take it!

If it’s £675 I’ll probably do so .  I guess that hey are popular,and I’ll probably not get a better deal than that at this present time . Your thoughts??

Breathe. You'll work it out. 

They're excellent basses. 

My tastes are so broad with colours, finishes, neck carves, etc that if my #1 priority was low price, colour wouldn't matter. It's not like any of the colours of the Space basses are horrible. I'd be happy with any of them.

I liked the HILS HNB5 better than  the Space -I picked it up new from Andertons at £479 and presumably that deal will come back at some point. Might be worth considering if you haven't definitely made up your mind or got one already.

 

Just checked and they are on offer again at £479. Also Andertons are an easy place to return to if it wasn't for you.
