Why does my new metallic red Squire affinity Jazz bass sound so good? It sounds great. I play it thru a Zoom b2.1u pedal into a new Marshall MB 30 practice amp. It sounds really full, has no buzz, has great tonal variety and sounds very nice considering the price. The craftsmanship is outstanding and the neck is beautiful?

I want to get another bass but have three already and they all sound great: a new Schecter stilleto 5 Elite that sounds incredible, and a used Squire affinity P bass that is great sounding with a beautiful neck; I'm going to hot rod the P bass. SD quarter pounders or GFS hot P bass pups and a new pickguard. It's gloss black and I would like to put an antiqued white pearl guard on it or a black pearl like my affinity "Black Pearl" strat. A gold p style guard might look good too.

I can't get over how good this affinity J bass sounds though. Stock. Hand picked.

Any ideas as to why it sounds so good?

Would SD quarter pounder J pickups make it sound better? If it sounds any better it will be truly awesome.
