The bass line is very similar to Bigmouth Strikes Again by Smiths, haven't you noticed?

[Aspartamebraintumor]

Also, for your song, the P and the Stingray sound the best... and the natural J actually sounds the least fitting

[Aspartamebraintumor]

That natural J is the best in the mix here. Those clear yet gritty mids sound great. I notice that the Ric has the quality of both the J and P. Gritty mids, yet rich lows. I personally own a J and a Ric.

@TheBlueBandYTAccount I've tried to like P basses, but I just cant find a tone I like. They are to boomy and mid scooped. They sound ok with flats though.

[FunkyPraise]

Wow, great video comparison. Well done. Have to say I was surprised by the Ric. Very versatile, but I have to give it to the.....ding, ding, ding...STINGRAY!

@Mightypaul All a bass player really need is a P-bass (preferably a deluxe version), a Stingray and a Fretless jazz.

[alanrolemberg]

I am impressed with the job. Congratulations, man!

[olegsokolov]

p is cool, on j you better use flats

[Mightypaul]

All a bass player really needs is a Jazz and a Sting Ray.

Liked p-bass, white j-bass and rickenbacker in the mix. P-bass has a roar, j-bass sounds with a vintage warmth and body and Rickenbacker has a smooth nice tone. The other sound well but stick out from this mix.
