Hey, I am seriously thinking about getting this bass for my 1st bass. Would this be a good starting bass? and would it be ok for me to start out on this 5 string? http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=bass/search/detail/base_id/40907 Thanks!!!!
I owned a GSR200 for a while and it was a pretty good bass for the money. The only thing I would suggest is that you buy a used one if that's the bass you want. I only had mine about 8 or 9 months and it brought less than half of what I paid for it. Look on Ebay and see what they are going for there. Either that or pick up a better quality used bass for the money that you would spend for a new GSR205. Try to get the best bass you can afford as a starter bass. You are more likely to stay with it if your bass isn't working against you.
Before you go spending your money...I strongly suggest spending a little more and getting the SR305DX... Its a lot better in my opinion... On the other hand, horray for going with Ibanez...love that company
Yeah dude, i was looking at that one......but its like 330.00. I donno if my parents would let em get it cuz theyll probly say it aint reasonable to spend 330 on a 1st starter bass.....but yeah that was actually my 1st choice of bass
