b-155
I've got one... pretty solid bass for the money! :)

I dunno much about the prices in the UK, but in the 300 dollar price range, this is one of the better basses you'd be looking at...

the pickups are pretty solid, the tone is VERY comparable to my other bass (a mahogany bass with EMG Hz's) and the bass plays really decent too!

anything else you'd like to know, please ask!

if you get a chance to buy a 400 series... I much rather recommend you look into those

if you have a chance to buy used, look into the B-305 and the B-205 (if you like the B shape), or the C-305 and F-205 (if you would prefer a longer scale lenght)... those are better basses overall

if you don't, fret not, for what it's worth, the 155 does its job quite well!

6-7 hundred USD is between like 250 and 300 something pounds. Don't know if the 400 series go for that price over there though.
