Ibanez gsr200 is around $200. There low end stuff has a decent rep. Can get something of a little higher quality used on eBay. That price range is the bottom tier. Not much quality floating around that level. A decent pair of tunning pegs that "stay in tune" cost at least $45 alone.

As Yavcon said, check Ebay. Ibanez basses are excellent instruments. I used them almost exclusively on stage until I stopped playing. I still have 3, and they are not for sale. The Soundgear and Roadstar series are my favorites.

thank you. I'm actually heading to guitar center on sunday to try out, hopefully ALL the basses. but I'm specifically looking at the squier MB-4 4-String Bass sorry, no link. and a yamaha fretless. I'd prefer fretless, but I'll take what I can get. I'm definately going to pay close attention to the ibanez guitars too. I'll let ya'll know what happens on monday. maybe tuesday, or wednesday. I have much practicing to do. thank you.
