Help me buy a new/used bass?

I already have two basses but I'm looking to get a third. I'm looking for one that can kick out a lot of balls, I'm pretty sure i want a 5 string, for a really long time i wanted an ATK-305 but I'm just not 100% yet. somebody give me some ideas? (hoping for something: big fretboard, light-medium weight, vintage?) thanks guys.

P.S, don't say anything about going to the 'music store' and playing them to find out what you like. i live in south Australia and let's just say, there's not a whole lot there... at all.
