Default Can anyone find a Fender Precision bass cheaper than this?

Reidys.com - Fender Standard Precision Bass (arctic white)

I am wanting a new bass, but I'm not really keen on spending more than £300.

Also, what do people think of this: Guitars.co.uk (Regent Guitars Ltd.) Fender Precision Bass Junior

I am tempted due to it being short scale, and I am tiny.

hey,

I have the same model, but in midnight wine colour. It's a really, really nice guitar. Gives an excellent tone (esp when used with an ashdown evo II 300!!!) which can either sound really 'clean' or really clunky, depending on what you like. With the sort of music we play, it sounds perfect when the 'clean' sound is used! It sounds alot fuller than the last bass I had.
