A strap, xlr cables, a dc brick or an adapter that can consolidate wall wartage.

dependent on yer skill level, maybe a book on scales and the like,

a pack or two of strings,

a REAL nice strap,

a multi-bass stand,

a good stage tuner,

peek around on the online store for suggestions in that price bracket.

the last suggestion sounds like a valid idea, but I think I'll get a couple books

+1 to a nice strap. I used cheapies for years. Bought a yamaha air cell strap which got stolen and now that they are discontinued, I cry once in awhile. Now Im using a levys 4 1/2 padded, I could never go back to a cheapy. SO MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE
