anyone know a good place to find good, cheap bass guitars.

I've checked on Ebay and i can get the same bass cone plays for 100 bucks after shipping and all,

and i've seen a few cheaper.

i know sure as hell i aint buying it from the manufactururer.

i saw somewehre today a bass that was over 3000 dollars, then i google searched it and found exactly the same one for like 1500 less somewhere.

but yeah, i'm not made of money.

once i get my job, i'm gonna save up.

where should i go to buy a bass? (my local guitar shop sucks, it's all rediculously over-priced)

well. lets see. Yamaha's are always good. so are schreters. you can find some good fender basses for a reasonable sum

ebay?

musicfriends.com

fender squier basses - less than $400
i have one, and its brilliant

try samash.com if you live in USA
thomann.de if youre in europe

If you want one thats cheap and looks like Cones go for the Squier Vintage modified P bass, good quality at a cheap price. It is also a pretty light weight bass which i see as a bonus. http://www.squierguitars.com/products/s ... 0326800505

^^ exactly. i have that and its so light!
i could swing it round my head all day if i want

I love mine but it was poorly wired and whenever i'm not touching any metal parts on the bass it makes a faint constant crackling sound.

i kinda get the same thing with my E string.
but i think it could be to do with me putting it on wrong.
anyone know the right way to put on a bass string?

Really budgie? I get that with my G-String on my guitar

that bass fucking pwns (especially for it's price).
if you get that one i recommend to change the strings. the ones that come with it aren't really that good.

here's a good guide on how to do it http://www.tunemybass.com/strings/bass_ ... s_faq.html

my problem was that my string was too long...
i need to cut a bit off the end of it so that itll fit into the hole
