I don't think they're cheap, though.

Been playing a mim j bass recently. It's made my life a lot easier, but these are exactly what I need...

I always wanted to play a Jazz Bass, but I have these tiny hands

Been looking' at these. Can't get over the sound of that neck pickup, sounds awesome.

Birdsong Guitars are pretty fucking rad, but not cheap

It was either the prototype or #001 Lakland Short Scale Decade Bass, that bass, is the nicest bass I've ever played, ever.

THIS BASS RULEZ

it comes with stupid wimpy strings, but otherwise it's awesome

i recorded my last EP with it, seriously cool with thicker strings should be AMAZING (for the money)

I just got one of these this week and I am really Loving It!!! The strings do suck at first and I will get some .45-95 half flats or flats if I can find them... Awesome Bass for the price and my friends all like playing it and say it's "fun"...

So I just stumbled upon the Hagstrom HB-4. 30.7" scale, knobs are master volume / tone / 6 way rotary pick up selector (neck, bridge, both - single and humbucking). Seems they go for $450-$550 new. Want.

Also, the Reverand Dub King. More expensive, but ya know. I played one of their full scale basses in a shop one time with that split poll pickup and didn't really dig it, but I also didn't get to crank it so it might have been throwing out ridiculous lows. Still looks pretty interesting.

Mustangs are pretty awesome. I have a '75 that plays and sounds great.

I got a Mustang last week and it is easily my favorite bass I've ever played. Plays like a champ and sounds great with fuzz and drive.

A couple of years back there was a 70's Lefty Music master bass for very cheap locally and I was on the fence about it... I really should have got it. I hate thinking about it.

This dude is at my local GC. Looks bad-ass but the hardware is all ganked up and the pickup is pure mud clean, didn't get to try it with drive.
( & now that I'm looking at it more I want it again
