When I listen to high budget country recordings coming out of Nashville, what percentage of J, P, MM, and Soap do you think I'm hearing?
Another way, what basses are popular there?
To my ears the high budget Nashville sound is more about the processing after the bass than the individual bass tones from specific basses. I used to work a little bit in Nashville and have recorded in Sony Studios, Ocean Way, and The Sound Kitchen. Their sounds come from a mix of DI and Ampeg B-15N into comps and boards. I've seen lots of J's and P's as well as Lakland and in the 90's some MM Stingray 5s. Just my .02
