Um, where is P vs. J?

Not to worry, I'll go post a poll.

Which is better? P basses or J basses? (Also, which is best for metal?)

Yeah, I can't believe "P vs. J" is not on the list. That is the most annoying BY FAR.

It's amazing how people will claim that the P and J pickup don't sound "true". I just laugh because I have both sounds I really enjoy and in one bass.

There is a difference between traditional P and J pickups and matched sets with overwound/underwound pickups, but otherwise, they are the same.
