Talented and experienced bassists! need help! see thru/ clear body bass guitar? !
Question: i asked some bassists and they prefer fender, ibanez, peavy, etc... then i saw this clear body bass guitar with a brand name 'grand' just for 200 USD on ebay. do you think it's a good idea to buy it? or just forget it? i am just a beginner. i know the price of the bass is cheap but i don't know if cheap and unknown brand names will last for years--also considering the sound of the instrument. the only problem is the feel to the instrument simply because i can only buy it online, particularly on ebay. i can't try it before i buy it. so i need your advice to this one. thanks a lot!

You really shouldn't buy a bass unless you've played it and like the sound and feel. Thats just my opinion though
It's an excellent guitar if you plan to perform naked. Otherwise, I don't see the point.
