It's funny that you can hear the P bass sound on mobile phone but you can barely hear the J.

[@PaddyLeggBass]

Cos low mids around 250-300hz are heard best thru small speakers like on your mobile, and P Bass’s have a more Mid forward tone, and a J Bass is much more mid scooped tone

[@atiwatkitvanitphasu5885]

This even makes me decide much harder whether I would buy J or P bass in the upcoming purchase. I love how P bass pronounces its warm and deep low tone but the J bass can provides a crisp high notes, another interesting tone for playing some solo. Anyway, thanks for this realistic on-the-mix comparison. Excellent work!

[@elithetallguy]

I really like this comparison! When it comes to the lower bassier note, P Bass takes the cake, but the higher notes have been won over by the Jazz Bass for sure!

[@ninodjuras]

Nice insight 👌🏻

[@joshstanman]

Jazz has a better growl, more presence. P is thicker. Jazz all day. Also have pressurewounds on my Jazz, love them.

[@TiagoMorais]

Thanks for sharing !

[@ninodjuras]

Thank you for listening 🙏🏻

[@ThunderBassistJay]

Very nice demo and playing! 😎

[@ninodjuras]

Thank you my friend, and which one is favorite? 👌

[@ThunderBassistJay]

​@@ninodjuras I have a slight preference for the P-Bass. This may be biased by the genres I mostly play. Your Jazz excels in the high register.

[@ninodjuras]

@@ThunderBassistJay I agree, P is slighty fatter and more in front 👌

[@troyshellhamer9964]

First off, really tasteful playing! You’re getting great tone with YOUR fingers. I have a jazz bass and was rooting for it, but in THIS comparison with these settings the P sounded much better in the mix. I would love to hear this the bridge pickup turned down low on the J bass.

[@ninodjuras]

Thank you very much for kind words, I will make that video for sure, P bass vs Jazz neck pickup. 👌🏻

[@danadane2501]

The jazz bass has a much more cut in the mix . Which gave the lower notes a lot more character whilst in this department the p bass gave it more of a notable rumble . Also on the higher notes the p bass while not as pronounced had a much smoother sound than the jazz . Someone else almost exactly the opposite on your comments but it just goes to show we dont always interpret music the same way . Nor hear it the same for that matter . Excellent job btw .

[@ninodjuras]

Thank you, I like having both 💪🏻

[@DrKeremKoseoglu]

Not to make a generalized conclusion; but in this mix, P-Bass is heard much better and clearer. Jazz gets a little lost and/or muddy.

[@ninodjuras]

P bass lover all the way 💪🏻

[@tickeroo]

I think the p bass stands out more simply because it has a more distinctive tone (this may be a bad thing if you want something that blends itself into the mix more seamlessly). P bass to me always has this more hollow, open, woody sound to it, while the jazz bass just sounds like pretty standard, unadorned bass tones

[@ninodjuras]

We agree 💪🏻

[@mayedhaadifirsta9841]

Jazz bass is has more "modern" sounds In my opinion, jazz bass is suitable for music in this era Yet P bass has it "classic" vibes I like the traditional sounds, and it feels "authentic" in the mix But if i only had 1 to choose, i will choose jazz bass for its versatility Thanks for the video!

[@ninodjuras]

Thank you for listening 🙏🏻

[@misterjj]

Thanks for making this comparison video. The lower notes on the P bass stand out more and sound better in the mix but the higher register, the J bass won out!

[@ninodjuras]

Thank you for listening, that's my observation too. 👍🏼

[@misterjj]

@@ninodjuras No worries at all!

[@thomasfaraone4213]

Jazz bass has a more focused tone that punches in a smaller range. Like getting hit with a pool noodle. p bass is wider but softer. like getting hit with a pillow

[@hrvojejelen1266]

P cuts through and sits in the mix better.

[@ninodjuras]

Nema do Preca 👌

[@arthuraguirrejr.9500]

Can you do this, but with the same kind of string? The jazz pops out more which I'm sure is due to the type of string you're using.

[@ninodjuras]

Hi Arthur, that's was not the point of the video, I tried to use their best strenghts, Jazz with roundwounds and both pickups, P bass with flats and tone closed a little to blend better. 👌🏻

[@arthuraguirrejr.9500]

@@ninodjuras understood. Its just not a fair match. I was wondering why the P wasn’t popping out more and it was because the strings weren’t the same type. Great playing tho.

[@davidbrown6415]

Jazz for me

[@ninodjuras]

I like variety, always have two of them 💪🏻

[@HaldunKaraman]

P bass is more muddy. J bass is more modern and better in the mix

[@CordScott]

Which pickups are in your jazz bass?

[@ninodjuras]

Original from Jazz American Standard S1

[@andifery8655]

P Bass produce great sound

[@ninodjuras]

Nothing like a P bass ❤️

[@AdrianBlackfire74]

What backing track is this?

[@NvaderRetro]

Lol over here wondering the same

[@NvaderRetro]

Idk why I remembered this comment, but I found the track.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqmXgIaOpK6AaMksi=NSLIx-PfdHxusW3w

[@CarlosPorrasMusic]

I love jazz bass, but in the mix P bass is better 😐

[@ninodjuras]

I agree 💪🏻

[@SevanStick]

If you shut the rear pickup off, the jazz sounds like the p. Jazz all day therefore.

[@adhanda2017]

Music too loud covering up the bass.

[@ninodjuras]

It's approximatelyt the real life bass mixing volume.
