So far ive been using my friend's bass to practice so im thinking of getting my own. Ive juz started playing and im wondering if anyone could recommend me any good bass within the $1k-1.5k range. I play k-pop, j-pop, and pop songs~ i also play english indie rock songs by bands like muse, bon jovi etc etc. Since im not really sure on what kind of models and brands of bass i was hoping if anyone could recommend me some and where im able to find it

I was also thinking if it would be wise to get a 5 string bass coz my fren said i have huge hands and i would be more suited to play it. But i only have 1-2months bass experience of playing tabs and learning by books and was wondering if i shld start off with the norm 4 string bass or listen to my frenz advice and juz get the 5 strings~

Plz help a newbie bassist =D
 
Do you even know what to use a five stringer for? there re basses out there with wider fretboards which are four stringers.... i'm not sure what to recommend thou...
 
why you double post haha...
anyway yeah... number of strings you play is not determined by size of your hands... find out more first, whether you're likely to use a 5 string in the future.. although i suppose there is no harm in getting one, just that the upkeep is generally higher. from the music you play, I think 4 strings should serve your purpose quite comfortably, but 5 strings will let you hit those low 5ths much easier.
 
well 1 advantage of 5er u can do drop tuning without dropping, accept for drop C.

as for bass recomendation you seems to have a nice budget for bass. at that price range your options are great.
