help me decide! please 5,6 strings

Hi how are you im new to basses of more than 4 strings,
Im selling a squier california and some people will trade me their basses for my bass and money
What bass do you think is the best of these
Ibanex sr405
Washburn xb600
Yamaha b415
Ibanez btb 555
I dont know their prices because they dont sell them in my country
If you can give me an stimate of the prices of this basses in new condition and the price of te squier california and a vintage modified squier fretlesd new it will be really helpfull because i can use them to relate the leveń of the bass and the price of it
Thanks for all!

Relating to the leveń of the basses are them related. To what level mexican fender? Squier vintage? Classic vibes? Here we only have the fender bass brand to compare hehe

Just got myself an orange Yamaha BB415, and love it. If you need info, I can try to answer some questions, but in short: great instrument for money.

Can't be of much help as far as the price evaluation goes - I exchanged my Rocktron Blue Thunder with rack bag for it (strait exchange). If I had, I wohld roughly evaluate at 250-300 euro.
But, if you will be playing this instrument, price should be your last concern ;-)

i know that the price is not what a instrument is about. but i want to know the prices becasue i dont want to be scammed

for example the most expensive one of that is this :
Ibanez btb 555

but i dont know any of the price to know if someones is overpriced or underpriced (hopefully haha).
and in argentina we dont have a lot of brands so i want to compare the level with fender to know if is expensive for example:
if Ibanez btb 555 is like mexican fenders, the mexican fenders are here in argentina $8000 the Ibanez btb 555 used is $6000 so it has the same price than the mexican fender.

sorry for my questions but is very dificult to know if im being scammed or not i dont want to pay a crazy amount of money for a low level bass

The Yamaha hasn't been on the market for a little while, but its successor, the 425 turns up as http://www.musiciansfriend.com/bass/...73240000002000
