    Eh. I’ve been playing an $80 no name bass for five years. No one has any idea, because it sounds fine.

    You don’t need to go all out. Ability is more important than name brand.

      It must have some decent machine heads to hold tune. Did you buy it used?

        It’s pretty great actually. It rarely goes off tune. Takes about 20 seconds with a snark.

        It was brand new, off Amazon of all places. I did have to buy a new strap though, the one that came with it broke immediately.

        To be honest it does have a “trumpet” sound that I’m not fond of.
