Hi all,
I have been looking for a recording bass for a while - something with good direct tone, since I don't play bass live. I was in my local music shop for strings and tried this 5-string by The Bass Company, which I hadn't heard of before.
The tone is nice, and the price seemed all right, but I couldn't find much about the company online. In particular, I couldn't find other similar basses for sale, so I wanted to consult the board to see if folks think I paid a reasonable price. They gave me until Tuesday to decide if I'm satisfied with it. Have yet to finish testing it in the studio.
Again, it's a 5-string TBC, handcrafted in the USA, spalted maple top, with used hard case for about $450 after tax. Let me know what you think.
Thanks!
