This is the biggest conversion of my life. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5786205&forum_id=2/en-en/#49349512) |

Date: October 14th, 2025 10:17 PM Author: mountain cat Are you the poster that got the red one?
yeah i feel like a lot of people have that moment. i had it very late (still have never owned a p bass). I always viewed the J as the sexier, cooler, smarter model and P as the clunky grandpa bass. But then you play a nice one and you're just like shit that's why this thing is so beloved and timeless. |

Date: October 14th, 2025 10:26 PM Author: Mr. Shalom Yeah exactly.
I was just never able to get the tone I wanted from the J bass. It never sounded quite right. Supposedly you can get some Jaco tones out of the bridge pickup. But I don't play a lot of funk? So it was like who cares. The other J bass heroes are John Paul Jones and I feel like his rig from the 70s is just esoteric and rare like I couldn't find any of his gear in reality. The only other J bass hero I had was Flea and you have to go all in on a Gallien-Krueger rig to pull it off. You have to have matching cabinets and shit. It's just too much.
I plugged in the P bass and it sounded like 90% of the tones on every record I ever cared about. Now the J is like some odd flavor you use sometimes to mix things up. |

Date: October 14th, 2025 10:43 PM Author: mountain cat I had a similar experience with my j bass that I ultimately sold. To get the iconic tones it’s either all bridge pickup for that jaco farty tone or you need effects to get a geddy lee type tone. A passive single coil j style neck pickup is all but useless for me.
Simple p bass has no problem getting the exact tones you want from Motown to modern rock. |

Date: October 14th, 2025 10:44 PM Author: Mr. Shalom Agreed.
Can we get a tone check dupa? What is your amp spitting out right now? |
