The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

I pick up this bass every once in a while and it surprises me every time how good it is. The neck, setup, sound, everything is amázing. Especially when considering I paid only €400 for it. Put about the same amount of money in the electronics (Nordstrand and Aguilar), but still. Fantastic instrument.

Hey I watched some YouTube vids on the Blade basses they got great sound
 
Which would you choose? I think I got most tones covered now(still no P bass or fretless). My EBMM Bongo 5HSP is missing.
I think I would go for the g&l cause that neck pickup may sound closer to a p-sound than the j-bass cause you definitely got the jazz sounds you need. But nothing else sounds like a p like a p does. That series switch on the neck pickup may be the ticket. IMO
