not a "gear guy" by any means, so i need some help here. My tracks are hard rock/alternative and I am currently using a crappy pawn shop bass borrowed from a friend. The bass is really the biggest problem in my recordings, as the mid range is rather muddy, even with much EQ. there is a terrible idle hum as well, and i've found it to be at 500hz and 1.3khz when I sweep it while its in idle. I am using an amp sim with the bass amp and cab. the instruments plug directly into my interface, so no amp needed.
i very recently upgraded my guitar to a Gibson Studio Gothic, and i might as well complete the deal with a new bass.
any suggestions, price range up to $350-ish, for a good bass in this genre? If you would like to hear a sample of the music, with the crappy bass, check here:

even particular brands would help me out, and i could research models from there. thanks everyone!
