Another Jazz Bass comparison. I've previously compared a Fender Highway 1 and a MIM Jazz to the Sire. Both of those were Alder bodies with rosewood fretboards. Here the basses are a little more similar because they both have maple fretboards. These 2 sound much closer than the other ones I tested yet they still sound very different. The Sire Marcus Miller V7 is brand new and bone stock with unknown strings. The Fender MIJ Geddy Lee Jazz Bass has DiMarzio pickups (possibly model J's) and has a vintage style bridge instead of the factory Badass 2. It has a brand new set of Warwick "yellow box" 41210 .040 to .100 strings. So we have 2 beasts from the East! It's Japan vs. Indonesia, the big guy vs. the new contender, high mass bridge vs. vintage bridge, ash vs. alder and black block inlays vs. pearl block inlays. Which one wins? You decide!
