i'm thinking of trading my Fender American Standard Jazz bass for a Fender American Standard Precision bass..

1. Many of my favorite rock bands use the Precision more.. so I want to get the P bass. plus.. the P bass sounds more iconic...

2. I purchased my Fender American Jazz bass brand new.. Should I trade it for the P bass?

3. Should I do it now.. or wait 5 years plus?

Brother, I regret every day that I sold my jazz, and I'm a P-bass guy through and through. Save up some greenbacks (or whatever the currency is in your locale...) and make it a twofer. Best idea ever! That way you have versatility.

haah hey!I have the Fender American Standard Jazz bass 3 tone sunburst rosewood as well! The Jazz bass sounds nice with the bridge pickup selection.. But in my opinion NOW.. I think the P bass looks better.. i don't know why.. When I first purchased my Jazz bass.. I thought the Jazz bass looked better because it's a standard bass and it has one extra tone selection.. Maybe... I can get the P bass in the near future when I get into a big rock band. I'm still deciding. So hard to decide. If I DO trade my jazz bass.. I will get sad because the jazz bass is my first Fender bass. I got it brand brand new... and you guys get what I mean, right? letting your first Fender bass go to a different owner.. and you might think they will not take good care of it. :p I don't know.. it's a hard choice. I don't know if i'm going to regret or not.. Just got to be thankful that I have an American Fender Bass.. and deal with it :p

I wish you would trade/sell/throw away/get rid of that damn jazz bass. I, for one, am sick of this same question every other day.
Get the precision and be done with it.
Sheesh!

You should stick with the Jazz..if that's where you started. My only thing with the Precision is about the sound. There's this a.m. radio soundin' honk tone on the PBass that you just can't escape.


AM RADIO? WTF? You mean it TALKS?
