Bass Master Bass Master Pro

The Bass Master Pro is a very sophisticated transducer system for the upright bass. It consists of three components: The Double Big Twin bridge surface mount transducer, one wing mount element (the Bass Max transducer) and a very powerful 2 channel mixer with excellent features.

The Double Big Twin pickup is designed to transmit a marvelously harmonized jazz bass sound with a lot of very low and high frequencies. The high frequency response ensures a clean amplification of the finger pick sound. The low frequency transmission refers to a desired very low bassy sound picture.

The wing mount module transmits a more midrange oriented sound which adds power and color. When playing arco, we recommend to use the wing transducer only. Another advantage is its compatibility with small combo amps.

The 2 channel mixer is designed as a belt clip unit. It features 2 volume controls, a stereo input and a line level output on the outside of the box. Inside the box are adjustable controls for gain, bass and treble for each channel. The tone controls offer an incredible +/- 20 dB. This is a wider range than some big boards on the market today! To keep the box as small as possible these controls are trim pots (small potentiometers for adjustment with a precision screw driver which is supplied). Once you installed the pickups, you can adjust the two transducers with these trim pots to your personal preference and needs. During performance, the two volume knobs on the outside allow fast balancing.
