Yamaha BB vs Fender Jazz (PJ vs JJ pickups) DI and amp sim 

Thank you!

That’s exactly what happened with me!

AintThatTheWeigh🙂

I have the BB735A it's an amazing bass for the price and the BP35 Is even better.

Shadrick. HOW is the BBP series better.? Would love your insights. Thx.

@@treyhanna4127 I'll be honest I have not played the BP35. I just currently own the BB735A. When I meant Its even better it was just based on the videos I have seen in comparison to the BB735A AND FENDERS etc. It was also just based on my own opinion. However even though the specs are identical to the BB735A the BP35 is made in Japan with IRA treatment which gives it a tone as if the bass as been played for years enhancing the tone. It has a much more growly tone. But it also depends on what you prefer. Someone who owns both said on one of the vids the sustain of the BP35 is a much better. I love my BB735A im still in awe of such quality of what yamaha has put into this instrument. I have played other basses within the same price bracket and nothing compares. That's just my opinion though. Would be nice to get proper insight of someone who actually owns both. Check Miki Santamaria he demos both of these instruments.

@@CHUBBY12309 Shadrick - thanks for informative, helpful reply!

Glad I could help!

Thanks!

@@hampuslundgren7300 I have a BB P 34, my challenge is to make it sound as good as your 5 string and create a cool groove. Thanks for the inspiration!

Yeah they are close but different, and eq can’t really make up for that difference.

wich is the main tone difference iyo? ​@@hampuslundgren7300

Thanks!

Great song!

I think top load. Through is better.

Thanks!

@@redtomfunk Nothing, I believe. Perhaps what you are hearing is the transition from the BB to the jazz?

From that time on they cut less (both of them)

@@redtomfunk yeah you are right of course! Sorry, I forgot! That half of the video has an amp sim on it just to hear what they might sound like thru an amp.

The BB basses have a sort of “medium” thick neck somewhere between a jazz and a P so very comfortable. This is a 5 however so obviously it’s a bit wider. Very playable.

@@hampuslundgren7300 Thanks for your response. I'm looking for a nice PJ and looking hard at the BB. I have a Jazz Elite 4 string which I love, just wanted to get a PJ setup to use some old school P bass tones.

I improvised it, but the chord changes are from a Free Nationals song called “gidget”.

Thanks!

Even just to go to the grocery.

@@saintjabroni Yes.

Fender American Special. Great for the price, but I got a Am. Pro. 2 now and it’s a little nicer imo.

Thank you . Wish you all the best

Yes!

@@hampuslundgren7300 and 100? Tone too? Also thank you for the reply! People keep talking about jazz basses having a countour but frankly that's a very fat and growly sounding jazz bass!

80% tone on both basses

@@hampuslundgren7300 thank you man! Great stuff!

Thanks

Not really, slightly wider than a jazz.

I can hear the small difference but I have played them both so much.

In another video…

No problem. Call me!

Even Fender wants to be Fender cause without Leo it didnt get any better

Yep, and it looks like cheap Harley Bentons are sounding better than fenders...

@@zalle1 Dont be silly, only reason people like Harley Bentons is because they sound good in the bedroom. That is what they aim for as well so good for them but in a mix on stage or during recording a HB falls flat.

@@steveluth3139 I don't own a hately Benton, I actuality have a Yamaha and a fender... But watch this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gDLykV-dJPQ.html

@@zalle1 Have you played a cheap HB bass? They are not great sounding basses ... look nice but they skipped a beat on the pups and electronics. I own one because I was curious about them. I also have 2 Fender jazz basses and 10 Yamaha's. Trust me when I say the HB's are not in the same league unless you spend more than the bass initially cost to fix the problems. My HB is a wall flower, pretty looking but thats about it.

What's the point?
