Best bass deal I got this year was a 1978 Ric for $550 or a Euro neck through spector for $350.
Any other great deals? I remember the 499 bongos or something crazy like that.

|  | Bottom Feeders Unite!! | | Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Delray Beach, Florida | | | Two good deals....
The first: I got a cheapo Steinberger 5-string new from MusicYo.com for $280. Well I went to Sam Ash to trade in for a Fender Jazz Standard, figuring if I get $100 bucks for it I would be happy............Sam Ash gave me $260 for it! Now that is a good deal! The really funny thing is I went back to the store a week later, they had it for sale for $315....more then I paid new!
The Second: I just got a great deal on a new Fender Geddy Lee Jazz from BassCentral. They are having a clearance sale right now, so there are great deals to be found if you ask..... |

Best price in the shops, $AU 380. I threw on some new strings (D'Add XL-170), set her up, shielded the cavity, did a series mod, put on some nice chrome knobs...and she's my main playing bass at the moment... |

| | | | Not a bass (well bass guitar anyway), but a few weeks ago I scored a Moog Taurus bass pedal synth for $100 plus some traded-in pedals (sticker price was $399, these things go on ebay for like $1500-2000.) |
