Hello TB, long time stalker, first time poster

I used to play Bass, but my old Bass was a music Store rental and it was returned a long time ago. I didn't have the money to get one for a long time, but decided that I would get one this year, and now I'm looking at 2 and can't decide which one to get. I would like some help in the decision.

The first is a Washburn Bantam XB-400. This was what I rented back then, so I'm familiar with it. The second is a Jackson Pro Series Spectra SBP IV, 2021 model. Both are in *very* good shape. Prices are close enough where I'd rather have the better one than save literally a few bucks.
