This bass was designed for true bass enthusiasts – combining an ash top with a mahogany body is a new approach and delivers a great tonal balance between powerful, rich bass and transparent highs. Furthermore, the beautiful wood grain of the ash is not to be overlooked from an aesthetic point of view. The Fishman Fluence Bass Soapbar pickup set with 2-band EQ and switchable voicings should appeal to any bassist looking for a bass guitar with extremely flexible tonal options.
The ash top on a mahogany body delivers a superb tonal balance between powerful, rich lows and transparent highs. The beautiful wood grain of the ash is also aesthetically pleasing.
Based on Fishman's radically new Fluence Core technology, this electric bass pickup set delivers excellent dynamics and articulation for 4- and 5-string bassists thanks to its revolutionary multi-voice design. The three different sound presets offer the player a very wide range of sounds to cover many different genres.
The push/pull function of the potentiometers and the 3-way mini switch allow you to access the different voicings of the Fluence pickups, making the A4 Ultra Ash Bass a super-flexible tool.
3-Way Voice Control Switch
- Voice 1 (Passive): Classic, rich, and round
- Voice 2 (Active): Full frequency spectrum and dynamics
- Voice 3 (Active with mid contour): Funky, pronounced bass and treble
Using the push/pull function on the volume control, you can split the pickups, shifting the tone in a classic J-style direction.
The string-through-body bridge, with its strings routed through the body, delivers a more powerful sound with more sustain. The higher string tension also fits the 34" scale length very well.
The 5-piece maple and panga panga neck is extremely rigid and stable, and its neck-through-body design enhances the bass's resonance characteristics.
The neck-through-body construction greatly enhances the bass's vibration transmission and sustain. The low-frequency range is very clear, the mids have more punch, and the highs are pleasantly present.
The African panga panga has the typical characteristics of wenge and produces a dense, balanced sound that works perfectly on neck-through instruments.
These modern, very lightweight, and extremely precise tuning machine heads solve one of the major problems of all electric basses: The heavy weight of conventional machine heads leads to excessive top-heaviness and reduces the instrument's tendency to vibrate.
