Hey guys I know this is usually a personal preference but I'm a guitar player first and a bass player for recording purposes only. I've owned a few low to mid range basses over the years to record and practice with. Lately I've been looking at buying a good bass. So my question is for the bass players out there. The bass I have in mind comes in a P/J config or two humbuckers that can be split to singles. What would be the best for rock, hard rock and metal primarily. I don't care for all those old jazz and funk tones etc. I don't really care for overly distorted bass tones either. (But it's good to be able to get these sounds if needed) Just good solid punch and warm growly tones. I don't have access to the different basses to try so I'm asking the bass players here. What are the pros and cons of each or what would they be more geared towards because I honestly don't know. Thanks
