notabob Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 hey, im lookin to buy my third bass and im thinking 5 string. my first bass was a peavey milestone IV and my curent bass is a 4 string cort curbow. im really leaning toward the schecter c-5. $500. thats all i have. if you have any suggestions of a 5-string bass in this price range, let me know. i have ordered a schecter c-5 from musiians friend, but i have just been made aware that it is backordered till the sept 26th. so, i have until then to cancel my order. let me know what you think. if u want more details about this bass, go to http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=030912160917064006107050088222/g=home/search/detail/base_id/106333 thanks for your input.
davebrownbass Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 I personally like the ESP C-304 better than the Schecter...but not certain of the new price. I have a Schecter. Bought it new, from MF, used it one month and there it sits in it's case "Let's raise the level of this conversation" -- Jeremy Cohen, in the Picasso Thread. Still spendin' that political capital far faster than I can earn it...stretched way out on a limb here and looking for a better interest rate.
Mr. Phil Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 Try looking at an Ibanez SR 405. This is my current bass that I use mostly. I got it for $480, but I dunno what it goes for now. Also try looking at Carvin to see what they have. I dunno what the prices are. Bottom Line: SHOP AROUND!!!! http://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/blue.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/black.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/fuscia.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/grey.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/orange.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/purple.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/red.JPGhttp://www.briantimpe.com/images/LDL/dots/yellow.JPG
