Hi folks,
I might be in the market for a good solid studio bass. For the foreseeable future it'd be recorded DI.
I don't do anything exciting on bass and generally I'm mixing acoustic singer/songwriter pop-ish mixes.
The bass I have on long term loan just sounds bad. Honky...weak...no good.
I don't have any real bass experience but the internet seems to be telling me a Fender precision is the way forward.
I'm seeing them from £300 to £3000 used....Anything in particular I should know here?
Mex, jap, USA...Big differences?
I suppose my budget is up to about £500 and I expect to be buying used.
I just want a good reliable warm/full sounding bass to fill that hole at the bottom of the mix.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
