Flats on a Jaguar?

I just bought a Jaguar that should arrive any day. Anyone here have experience with Flats VS Rounds with the Jag?

Not personally, but I'm sure they'd sound as good as they do on a Jazz.

I played rounds on my Jag first then switched to flats to try em out and loved it! Then I switched back to rounds. Then I put a new bridge and new pickups on it. Tomorrow I am going to be putting flats back on it. It sounds amazing with both. And by the way, this is the best best I have ever played. Agreed?

I've got chromes on my jag for now, I like them and they it fits with the band. But I'm thinking about buying a Precision and putting flats on that and swithcing to rounds on the jag.
But the jag with flats sounds good

I just got the bass today and it is amazing! Plug it in and it's pure jizz.
