With the Human Base Roxy B5 Transparent Black, the Waldems-based makers of premium basses present a straightforwardly designed all-round five-string bass that impresses not only with its flawless craftsmanship, but also with its high-quality features and comfortable playability. Human Base has opted for a lightweight body made from swamp ash, whilst maple is used for the six-bolt neck. Thanks to the flat ‘C’ profile and the contoured neck pocket, grooves and runs up to the highest registers of the 24-fret rosewood fingerboard come off effortlessly and smoothly. Placed in the sweet spot on the bass amp, the Delano The Xtender pickup —in its striking oval housing—delivers a powerful yet detailed sound that captures even the low B string with precision. The mini-switch on the pickguard allows the pick-up coils to be wired in series for a punchy tone or in parallel for a more open sound. An active 3-band EQ is also on board for precise sound adjustment. Last but not least, the Human Base Roxy B5 Transparent Black is fitted with an ETS Tuning Fork bass bridge and precise Kluson bass tuners.
Human Base Roxy 5 Transparent Black Delivery took a month to Qatar. DHL gave it to QatarPost. I made a typo in PO Box and QatarPost delivered to that PO Box. Luckily I found tel number connected to this PO Box in Google and finally found my parcel. Otherwise nor a QatarPost neither DHL did not help saying it was delivered already. Also the outer box looked like someone was jumping on it.
Despite all bad experiences with delivery and long waiting time the instrument is very good quality. Straight neck, no sharp frets. The weight more on heavy side. High quality bridge. Very clean preamp, almost zero hiss. Plenty of sounds with eq and series/parallel/passive. Passive switch does not change the volume and very quiet. For those who thinks it’s a stingray - it’s not due different preamp and pick-up, but very close. Came with good set up, done by musicstore (thank you) and nice gig bag way better quality than my fender one. It is still intune after 1 month of travelling! Opened the box and started playing! So far I’m very happy with this bass.
This is a great quallity instrument much better than my Ray34 that I bought last year.
Has very nice quallity and electronics on it and special detail on the craftsmanship.
I suggest this bass if you like the more modern sound of P and a Stingray, actually you can play whatever you like!
