Hi! I've been playing bass for about 6 months+, and now I want a new bass! I'm looking for something good for funk and slapping, but also punk rock... So I'm guessing it should be something active with a humbucker, I've been looking at a few basses: A Eiphone Firebird for sometihng with a growl, a standard Fender Mexico Pre-bass, a OLP Sting Ray copy, and a Cort GB74... I know that only one of these are active, but I'm on a tight budget, a standard fender goes for about 600 dollars here in Denmark... Please help if you have any suggestions for a bass.
I read somewhere that the pickups on the mex jazz bas should be rather noisy..? But thanks for the advice, I'l check it out!
