I would be cautious, but don't rule out the five string. Play one and see how the B string is. If it's loose and floppy, then forget it.

that makes sense...thanx, though I've been cautioned against getting a 5 string, especially getting another Squier (I already have an MB-4)

I've actually heard that the MB-5 is a pretty decent bass.
