Bass Gear Direct is
the exclusive Australian importer /dealer for HUMAN BASE –
USA, and HUMAN BASE CUSTOM – Germany.
Human Base was founded in 1997 by award
winning, German master luthier, Siggi Jaeger.
Over the last ten years Siggi Jaeger`s HUMAN
BASE instruments have become famous for their solid
craftsmanship, sophisticated construction techniques and
high quality materials. His
designs have become the premier first call bass for those
that seek master quality custom built instruments.
Siggi offers limited runs of his
own custom models which we now have access to, such as the
ClassX, Max,Jonas, BaseX, Xover and JBX models. Click this
link HUMAN
BASE CUSTOM- GERMANYfor more details on these. Siggi’s strict quality
controls only allow a small number of custom basses to be
made available per year.
The introduction of the BaseX.oc
series has led the expansion of the Human Base line, into a
working musician’s environment.
The idea was not just to offer an entry
level bass with no frills electronics and hardware and whack
a boutique brand name on, it was to offer an honest and
versatile bass with the now famous Human Base high quality
and performance. What you get
is exceptional playability, and a very wide range of tones,
often associated with other basses with a familiar style and
character in a much higher price range. This is made
possible by using high-end boutique electronics, pickups,
and hardware and other features which are used on his
high-end custom models. The sound is versatile and focused
towards a dry growl which will cut through the mix with
authority regardless of musical style.
Full credit to Siggi and Human Base for
being able to develop and offer an instrument with many
high-end features at a very affordable price.
Look at some of the features:
Human Base
Bridge: H/Duty metal base plate, individual
saddles offering height, intonation & side by side
adjustments. The longer design allows better
intonation across the wide range of string gauges
used by today's player
Controls: Volume -push pull active/passive,
Blend, Bass cut/boost, Mid cut/boost, Treble
cut/boost & Passive Tone in passive mode,
Parallel/Series switch.
Zero Fret & Graphite Nut:for consistent
string tone from open to fretted notes & helps keep
the action above the first fret low and a consistent
even feel at the open position. Graphite nut is
internally lubricated for consistent and even
tuning.
Delano Pickups: Hand made, custom wound in Germany. They
offer incredible detail, articulation and low noise.
Huge output which is thick yet surprisingly dynamic.
The perfect bass pickup for any musical situation.
H T
Neck Joint System: Human Base High Tension
(HT) neck joint features a wedge like neck extension
which goes more deeper into the body than a
traditional bolt on system. This offers a stronger
and more stable joint and improves the coupling
between the body and neck.
Glockenklang Preamp: wide range 3 band EQ
which is dead quiet yet powerful and the perfect
compliment for the Delano pickups. Control cavity
fully shielded inside the cavity with copper.
