What is the difference between a Fender Jazz Bass Mexican American?
I just started playing bass for my band and I'm looking for a low I was wondering what the difference between the Mexican jazz bass and jazz bass Americans are different from the price tag. I want to buy the Mexican just because it's a hell of a lot cheap.
Big difference. I worked at Fender and the lumber yard has different categories of wood had aged over the years. The use of wood model American first class to start. The workforce at the factory in Mexico is far from having the same labor in the U.S. plant. The hardware is not the same and neither are the pills, the wiring itself (under Mexicans tend to hum like crazy, etc.). The shielding also plays an important role in the cavity. One last thing. The neck Finishing is neglected in Mexican models and if they play, you'll notice the rough edges and some dishes are very polished. You get what you pay for. In addition, the wood used in the real deal will continue to age over time meaning that the sound will improve. In the Mexican models, never sound better.
