My PC sounds like my PC... and she ain't gonna sound like any JAE PC... regardless of what I do with her...  :mrgreen:

It's the fingers that need to sound similar, not the bass.  ;)

Doesn't his have a Sadowsky preamp (and maybe pickups)? I've been using the pedal version for years on my passive basses. I COULD live without it, but I like just a touch of bass and treble boost. Their pres are boost only BTW, so fully counterclockwise is actually zero as opposed the 12 o'clock being zero.

ANYWAY, that's a cool little factoid about the s/n!

This is the Marcus line - https://www.sire-usa.com/product-category/bass/
A friend of mine has an M series (non-Jazz style). Seems like a good instrument. I haven't actually played it plugged in.

Looks like every bass in their product line is a Marcus Miller.  :o
