Practice bass....

I should have made it clearer, as it's not anything that anyone has posted on the thread. I've just had enough of the lack of integrity from dealers within this industry. It also seems that the Manufacturers don't care too much about who sells their products, or how they go about it.

I used to do the opposite... the types of shows I was playing would tend to have a lot of beer flying around and I was always worried one of my favorite basses would walk off so I bought cheaper basses I didn’t have to worry about and recorded with and practiced on my favorites.
Now I wish I just played the nice ones and not sweated the small stuff.

I played cheap basses for an embarrassing length of time. I didn't have the money & didn't know enough for all those years to appreciate what that money bought! after years of avoiding Fender basses (although I liked the Jazz, it was more money than I had to spend on a bass), I finally found my mate in a Fender Jag Deluxe. I'm saying all that to say to buy the bass that suits you best sound & feelwise, even if it takes awhile to get it! You'll be so glad you did! IMHO
