Jazz bass

According to Google-Translate, he's translating to and from Turkish.

Yep, I figured that out by looking at the alphabet in post #6

I have a feeling that "hey bro" is going to become a running joke here for a long time. Even carrots had to start somewhere.

 

[Turnaround]

hi bro. Would you prefer the 2012 standard jazz maple vs rosewood? What's the difference?

One is maple, the other is rosewood. They look different. Everything else ventures into the realm of debate.

 

[Matty Koff]

I'm starting to have a thing for lamented maple fretboards because I like how they shine. I mean.. I don't mind rosewood but laminated maple is easier to clean/maintain imo.

Aesthetically, it's not really a huge deal to me though.

Get whatever makes you happy.

Do you have any pictures of your bass? We would love to see what you have.

I will upload it to the page as soon as possible

Hosgeldiniz! What's the music scene like in Turkey now? I played out a lot in Ankara in the late 90s, early 2000s. Yani, muzik hala hayatta mi?

Teşekkürler . You find turkey in the end stages of music. the fact that bass guitarists are interested in jazz music now makes me happy. If you come again, make sure to call.

I agree. To be more specific, I loved the style of dire starits, pink floyd, led zeppelin ... before. now I'm listening to extreme jazz music. It might sound funny, but instead of a 6 string bass guitar, I want to play with a 4 string fender standard jazz bass rosewood. rosewood tones seem warmer.

Welcome to talkbass.

Some bass makers feel that there is a subtle difference in tone between the rosewood and maple. Roger Sadowsky has addressed this a few times here on Talkbass.

Hey bro. I don't find much difference between the two sound-wise, if anything rosewood is a touch warmer. For looks, I prefer the maple.

Keep in-mind that most rosewood fingerboards are unfinished, meaning that you may require more maintenance than maple boards, which are usually finished.

If it's a warmer sound you're seeking, I'd recommend a Fender Standard, Fender Player (both Mexican-made) or if you can afford it, a Fender American Standard Jazz. Then, give it a set of D'Addario Chromes or Ernie Ball flatwound strings and you will get even more warmth.

If you’re looking for an old school 60’s rock tone look for an alder body with a rosewood fretboard. If you’re looking for a Marcus Miller type of tone/instrument go for an ash body with maple fretboard.

 

[2F/2F]

My preference would depend on the color of the body.

The difference is self explanatory. One fretboard is maple, and the other one is rosewood. Pick the one that looks best to you.

Hey bro

 

[Tim Schnautz]

Almost all of mine are rosewood or something similar. Got a couple maples though. But playability and tone, it doesn't really matter to me.

I also like rosewood and feel they sound a little warmer and feel better.

every tool needs maintenance bro. but the rosewood wants a little more. It is true

this is the answer I was looking for. I uploaded two photos. warvick and american standard jazz. two bass guitars i have. I just got the jazz rose rosewood neck.

I can't give up elixir wires, brother. what you say is very important to start the jazz music
