After reading your initial post, I immediately thought "Peavey T-40". But I understand if you don't like the look of the bass and they are heavy. Also, you need a special wrench to adjust the truss rod and without it you will have a bitch of a time setting the tension on the neck. I had a T-45 (the one pickup version) w/a maple neck and it played and sounded awesome, but setting it up was too much of a hassle, so I let it go.

If you want a super cheap bass that gets a ton of love on TB, you might want to look into the Gretsch Junior Jet bass. The older models go for under $200 USD used. It's a short scale bass (30"), but the older 2 pickup model's neck profile is 34".

Came into this thread to say EXACTLY THIS. NOTHING MAKES ME RAGE HARDER THAN WHEN SOMEONE FINDS OUT I PLAY BASS AND IMMEDIATELY SAYS "SLAPPA THE BASS". I ONCE SAID ID PUNCH THE NEXT PERSON WHO SAID THAT TO ME IN THE FACE. TWO WEEKS LATER I PUNCHED MY ROOMMATE IN THE FACE.

serves you right for playing bass

Holy fuck, someone call a whaaaambulace to take me to the goddamned burn ward.


Seriously though, you've got a point.
