jazz tone

    How do I get a "Jazzier" bass sound without a Jazz bass?

    I am using a soundgear by Ibanez bass and I have an acoustic amp and a fender rumble amp. I have a gig tomorrow night playing several jazz standards and I am looking for any advice (that isn't too incredibly expensive) to get a "jazzy" tone out of my bass. Thanks!

    Jazz Bass with Flats

    I'd like to preface my comments with the statement that I love a Precision, and own a couple, but I have discovered that in a live setting I REALLY prefer the sound of a Jazz Bass strung with flatwounds to a Precision similarly strung. It's a much more focused bass tone than its Precision...
