Paul had someone track him down. He called him at the Auto shop he worked at, and they asked for him. But he had no idea who Paul Simon's was.... Luckily, he took the gig, as his life was forever changed.

I went to bass boot camp in Philly a few years ago, and Bakithi Kumalo was there as an instructor. He played bass on that album. He told us he used to do studio sessions on the side when he worked as a mechanic, and Paul Simon went to that studio and heard his playing on a recording they had.

Awesome! I just picked up a new ibanez myself..... almost picked this one but decided to try their fanned fret six string. It's pretty smooth, and the tone is crazy good.

It's just personal preference.
It usually affects the length of the neck, though. The 24 fret might be 34" inch scale (from nut to bridge) and the sterling is probably 33".
I prefer 24 frets for the visual of the neck repeating itself.
(The twelfth frets is the same note as the 24th)

They are both nice!
One thing I noticed, if it matters to you, is the ESP is 24 frets and the sterling isn't.
Also, If you could somehow compare the weight, that could be a deciding factor. Some basses are super heavy and tear up your back and shoulder after a while.
