I say we go easy on the newbie, so all ill say is, people have differing opinions, personally i prefer the P basses but one thing you will definately learn from TB is that Fender is not the be all and end all of bass manufacture. they are by no means the highest quality basses on the market but they are still high quality.

Hope this helps a little :)
thanks for the help. . .

Wow, what a flaming initiation my friend, know you know (partially) how it´s done, so don´t go asking about "taboo" topics without doing a search, it´s faster, more discreet, and it lowers the risk of being flamed. That ( )-Bass vs ( )-Bass topic is quite sensible, wood choice affecting the tone of basses is another one you should avoid,to like or not to like Jaco is something of lower risk, but above all things, do not even think of asking about how Justin Chancellor gets his tone...that one can get you BANNED! :eek:

Disclaimer: the banning thing is totally tongue in cheek :p

Carry on fellow flamers...

Can someone please tell me the difference in tone between a Alder body and an Ash body when used in a fight between a P and J bass?

TIA
 
JAZZ BASS IS BETTER FOR MORE GROWLY MUSIC LIKE METAL AND A P BASS IS ONLY GOOD FOR COUNTRY MUSIC!!!

TAB IS THE ONLY THING YOU NEED TO LEARN

ALSO MAKE SURE TO GET A FENDER (NOT A RIPOFF LIKE LAKLAND) THAT WAS MADE BEFORE 1978 BECAUSE THE OLDER ONES HAVE WAY MORE GROWL
