Tone Controls
Bass - We carefully voiced this control to give you the deep bass you need for your lowest notes, with plenty
of mid-bass punch for the D and G strings. If the sound becomes boomy when you raise the Bass control,
lower the Depth control until the sound tightens up.
Low-mid - Boost here to thicken up the low end. Cut low mids for a more transparent tone or to reduce
feedback with acoustic bass.
Mid - This control subtly affects how well the instrument blends in or stands out in the mix.
Hi mid - This control zeroes in on click, fret buzz and string handling sounds produced by your fingertips.
Treble - The Platinum Bass’ circuitry ensures smooth and sweet treble. Cut treble for a vintage “flatwound”
sound.
