I finally got a new bass.

An Ibanez SR500. It is orgasmic to play compared to the piece of crap I have been playing since I started learning. I am completely and irreversibly in love with this bass. It is the lightest bass I have ever held, it's nice and small, well at least it feels small, which is perfect for me because I'm small, it sounds great - bright and snappy but able to work a range of different sounds. And, suddenly I'm a much better bassist on this bass. The only thing is that I think the action might be a little low so I'll have to adjust that possibly.
