I have practiced on a bass guitar at school for a few lessons in music, now i have recently wanted to buy a bass guitar and learn. I have no guitar or any knowledge of bass guitars. I am planning to buy the things i need to learn after christmas and have group and one ond one lessons at a local music shop. I will have a budget about £150 to buy what i will need.
Has anyone got any recommendations of what to buy, what brand etc.
Any help is much appreciated
thanx

I don't play bass myself, but my friend who played bass in two bands (one of which eventually spent money on some studio time) started with a Squier Affinity P-Bass, which he used for quite some time. He said it was pretty good. He didn't use the Squier for the record, but playing out he used the Squier.

I'm not in the UK, so I don't actually know if that website's reputable... :)
i just bought a bottom of the line Ibanez Soundgear. It sounds really great, is good looking and it has a thumb rest on it. It was $300.
