P Bass blind test

With so many variables, such as strings, woods, pickups, electrics etc I`m not intending on making this too in-depth. It`s going to a case of, which out of all of the basses used, are your 1st, 2nd & 3rd faves, based on sound. I`ll be playing each with a pick, finger-style, and a smidging of slap (same lines for each style). Additionally, for each bass there will be a rosewood or maple choice to select, and on their faves people can also guess as to the country/make of the bass. Will be too complicated for my brain otherwise.

It doesn't matter what they are, as in that case they need changing, as everyone seems to swap out original stuff, whatever it is. Put a set of [[i]insert here whatever's fashionable at the time of reading[/i]...] on it and improve your bass no end. :lol: :P

I'm not messing with it! It's as much as I can do to change the strings :blush: :lol:
