I actually quite like Gibson, Krist Novoselic of Nirvana played Gibson and he got some pretty nice tones. Think I prefer Fender and Rickenbacker though. It's all down to opinion really.
@piledriver89 oh i agree completely. I was just redeeming the jbass name because you said you didnt like the top fret. mexican jazzes have great sound because the neck is made so much cheaper than the american
It doesn't matter who you are or what you do, the best Fender is a P-Bass, hands down haha. my opinion of course.
The best Rickenbacker, is Lemmy Kilmisters signature, the best Music Man is the classic Stingray, anything Leo Fender came up with, he never got it wrong.
i have 2 fender Jazz basses, and they're awesome and all, but i think they're incredibly overrated and ridiculously overpriced. i think Spector is my favorite as far as tone, price and playability...but who doesn't want a Ric?
you are right, i love jazz bass sound, precision is not that cool, but jazz basses are used by everybody, I really love rics and ibanez basses are excellent for me as well
@LimitedPassions Look at early Jack Bruce playing with Cream (which I'm sure you've probably seen already), Gibson basses have had their say and are not all bad. I own a Rick and a few Fenders and love them but a Gibson bass can have a great tone too.
Fenders are nice basses, I used to hate fenders but I recently bought myself a jazz bass and I am pleased with the sound I can get out of it; however, I believe Lakland makes some sick basses and they still maintain that traditional look.
so this is funky? i guess if you never dance.. i can imagine my grandma best friends doing some kind of chicken dance drunk out of her mind OMG they playing some satanic rock now !!!
AMEN!!!! Great bass, I want one so so so so bad... Although I'm pretty happy with my P Bass for now, it's got amazing tone and well balanced pickups/.... I hope to get a Ric someday as well as a real nice fretless Jazz Bass.... ah its good to dream lol
i recomend a traben bass.chaos and and phoenix are pretty good for 500+$
