Default Need BASS help (to buy)

Hi! I have been playing bass for really 6 weeks. I am borrowing a Washburn from a friend to learn and then after much research I bought an Ibanez SR300 b/c it sounded great in the store after playing it on a few different visits. I got it home and I don't like it at all. Way too bright---couldn't compare it in the store, but it sounded (and played GREAT) there. I'm a petite gal, so I am looking for a sort of lightweight bass that is NOT active (I figured this out NOW--I just need something more simple for my purposes). I just want a nice bassy bass that won't kill me to play. The Washburn weighs on me literally after awhile. So does anyone know of a passive bass that is light but is not a total beginner's bass---but one I could happily play for years?
Thanks so much for your help!!!
