Slightly higher string tension on string through. I have found on my string through Precisions that there is a tad less mids but we’re really talking a waffer theen meent amount here.

Through bridge or body with regards to string tension? I can live without the choice as I'm personally convinced it's mainly just marketing.

Through the body it’s slightly more.

Nothing that doesn't pale into insignificance compared to amp settings.

Apart from the American basses using better grade woods, completely different pickups, through body stringing and much better quality hardware. Or at least they do at the moment... Wait for the inevitable cost cutting skunk stripe neck and top loading truss rod coming in the successor to the American Professional II. I wouldn't be surprised if the through body stringing is deleted as well, as well as the £38 big square high mass bridge being adopted too.

I was being sarcastic

Sarcasm is often difficult to detect in text form - Illogical, Captain. 🖖

Which is why I added the ‘by that logic anyway’…but seriously, nevermind ☮️

Youre clearly a witch and must be burned 

how dare you suggest that there is zero practical difference between two choices ?
