1977 FENDER PRECISION BASS - ROSEWOOD VS MAPLE - Andy's Vintage Guitars
Музыка
Today I am going to showcase these 2 brilliant 1977 Fender Precision Basses, both in sunburst finish but with one major difference, the fretboard material.
One is made out of rosewood and the other one is maple.
Both very nice but with different tone and feel.
Enjoy

G'day Andy, very nice demo must admit I do like the maple board just sounds a little brighter and I have always liked the way the board gets that used look, cheers for now and have a great day.

Gidday Andy,,i did the no looking at the vdeo,I personally couldn't tell the difference,,they both sound awesome,Thank you so much for the video!
I watched the video and could tell the difference. Then I did a completely blind listen and couldn’t tell the difference. Both are awesome!
Not sure why but I've always preferred maple. I used to have a rosewood just like that one. I still have my '74 with maple. Btw, nice playing!
Maple..but I am bias because I love my maple P...clear and articulate

Nice comparison! Listening through my studio monitors. IMO - maple sounds more even and has more definition in higher frequencies, but I I prefer your rosewood P - it's a nicer juice in the key bass eq spectrum.
Hey Andy, pretty close sounding but if I had to pick I’d go with the maple.
I think that the difference is very small and in a gig setting would probably be swamped. And other factors like component tolerances, quality of solder joints etc would mask the tonal differences too 🤔
I think with this music the rosewood sits slightly better.
The only reason people believe maole sounds brighter is because of synesthesia. You see a brighter color and your brain automatically focuses on the brighter parts of the tone. They both sound like precision basses
