If you are a beginner, you should check out the 'starter packs', comes with the bass, a practice amp, a cable, & some even come with a tuner. All that for around RM 1k.

look around for secondhand basses, usually about 450-600 will be fine, just as long as it feels nice to you...
and get a cheap headphone amp, rm 150 or so, canlah.
if wanna buy a bass amp, a decent one will set you back at least 300 bucks.

yep gio is a budget series from ibanez. but even so, i think the basses are not within the RM 300-500 range.
