Fender Jazz Blacktop vs Modern vs Fender MIM vs Squier

If going for a backup I`d start at looking at Squier CV range. Amazing instruments, not for the money, just amazingly good full stop. Not had any of the basses mentioned, but did have a CV Precision and couldn`t believe how good it was.

I tried a modern player jazz, cv jazz, mim jazz and a blacktop jazz with the same intention.

Bought the blacktop - seemed clearer, boll##ier and punchier to me. Neck was nice on all.

The tone control is a bit all or nothing and there is a big difference to the sound from each pickup (sort of stingrayish on bridge, precision but bit smoother on neck and scoopy/ twangy with both on full).

Heres a good link to a soundclip of a blacktop - possibly the best bass sound i've heard for a long time.
