To predictably improve the action it will cost several hundred dollars. I bought the bass about 4 years agof for $1300 and since then I have learned a bit of how to play so I have decided that I might want to move up to a better instrument. Does anyone have any suggestions of stores where they have a decent selection of upright basses? I am happy to fly whereever in US to try them out, but I don't want to buy another instrument without getting a chance to try it out. any help will be appreciated. |
