Yamaha RBS MS200 or Craftsman FPJ20?

[Boorick26]

Need advice from experts here. I had an offer for a 6mths old 2nd hand bass, the Yamaha RBS MS200 for $250 including gigbag. I dont know which is better between the Yamaha or the Craftsman FPJ20. I cudnt get any review for both bass guitars.

Shud i go for the 2nd hand Yamaha or brand new Craftsman which will be cheaper?

There are plenty of SX Bass videos on Youtube, are SX Bass around the same price range?

Thank you in advance. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I'm no expert but the yamaha will probably sound better. just check for defects before you buy it.

Tks bro. Its ok....i'm checking out Swee Lee's warehouse sale for their 50% discount. Have to raise my budget a bit. Hope can get around the range of $300.

Craftsman basses are under-rated.
It's good for it's price. =]
I'm using FPJ20.

I'm using a Craftsman FJ105 which I bought from Citymusic. Very true they are underrated. With a proper amp Craftsman basses sound pretty good given the rock bottom prices.
