    PLEASE need help. BEST 5 STRING BASS price range £800-£1500

    I believe they could be rather good however, the issue is I've never heard of them before, I have never seen one, played one or heard one. And £1100 to buy something I know diddly squat about seems very nieve. And for all the guys saying dingwall. Those fanned frets do worry me

    Hi thanks for replying. My only concern is the 34inch scale. I've played a few 34inch 5 strings and fret buzz seems so hard to avoid. The stingray HH is one I'm already considering. The G&L just don't really turn me on. I've also considered a ibanez btb 1305 prestige due to the 35inch scale...
