SDG Bass Questions

Okay, i played a couple SoundGear basses today at guitar center, and i have been asked before what sound i am looking for, and have not been able to describe it. Well, the SR500 is it. I love it. Soo crispy, just, omg.

My questions: the sr500 they had in brown maple, which i do not like. I see you can get the sr530 in a pearl white. Are these tones about the same? What difference is there between the 500 and 530?

Last question, now you know what kind of sound i am after, are there any other basses that produce this sound or similar? i currently play a yamaha RBX760A, and the sr500 would be the max i can pay right now. So, anything cheaper, anything same sound better and cheaper?
