So I had to sell my bass to get a new guitar and I don't really play bass seriously anymore, any suggestions on a cheap 5 string bass that would be good for recording metal?
Sounds to me like you need a Squier Vintage Modified Bass Six, it's a re-issue of a Fender from the early 60s, it's a baritone guitar, basically a guitar and bass in one package, check the demos out on youtube
