Thank you for this great comparison. The metroline to me sounds more fuller. Maybe the strings make a difference...

[carlton]

Great vid and playing as usual! Metro Express sounds compressed with a high-mid focus. MetroLine has more lows and punch. This video reminds me of the frustration I have with 34 inch scale B strings- more pronounced dead/hot spots. Maybe a (multi-scale) Dingwall is the way to go with 5s (?)

When both pickups work, the ME has more P feel, and ML sounds like a real PJ bass. I wonder if those pickups have been set to the same height on two basses.

Different bass string use could make different result too Sadowsky string on Metro line ; EXL ( maybe ) on Metro Express. To be fair, same string for both.

I like the sound of the MetroExpress B string better

[luigi.zanini]

Two different couples of pickups, two different sounds!
Metroline is better because has more low-end and cuts better the mix.
Missing the Jazz sound...

[BobdeVille]

The Metroline is rounder and more equal, the Exp has more edge.

[burricanecarter]

Do they both have the same strings on?

[TSBASSIST]

I think whoever recorded/edited this made a mistake. All the Metro Express sound clips that say Both Pickups sound like the Neck Pickup soloed
