Cheap 5 Strings

[vaca11]

Hey folks.. i dont know why but i always played 4 strings in my life, no regrets, but i want to try something new.. a 5 strings

ı dont want to spent too much money on this projects (like 250 pounds max) because i recently mod.ed my GRS200 ( H,P,J bartolini p'ups , new bridge etc) and bought a sterling H for backup


I found Peavey Millenium 5 - 200 pounds

a black coloured Grind Bass 5, 250 pounds ( didnt liked the colour)

HARLEY BENTON HBZ-2005 180 pounds ( quite interested)

also i tried a discontinued bass at a local shop.. ashton ab 1105.. it felt so great... 250 pounds


what do you say?

I bought my ATK 305 for 300 euros so with some luck ... it was used

But I found out that 5 strings aren't my cup of tea.

given the above choice: peavey mil.

i will retune it.. imagine it a 6 strings without B string

i may like some treb. sound

My first 5'er was actually a Warmoth build. A G5 with a Maple/Maple neck and board! Love it. Kept it simple and pretty cheap. The whole bass (I finished it myself) was about 500 Euro. I guess that is about 400 pounds which is more that you are looking at, but since it is a one of a kind thing, it is actually pretty cool to have.
