An Ovation-Inspired Bass: Modern Design and Everyday Practicality
The AEB4 Mid Cutaway follows the tradition of Lyrachord-backed instruments, valued for their stability and comfort. With its mid-depth body and cutaway, it aims to balance acoustic volume, ergonomics, and playability, while maintaining a strong visual identity through its multiple soundholes ("Multi Soundhole") and multi-ply cream binding.
For Which Bassists and Styles?
This 4-string electro-acoustic bass is particularly suited for beginner to intermediate bassists seeking a versatile instrument for home practice, accompanying acoustic guitar, or amplifying a set during rehearsals or concerts. Its long 34-inch scale length provides familiar reference points for electric bass players, and its preamp with integrated tuner offers real convenience for pop, folk, variety, worship, unplugged styles, and playing with both pick and fingers.
Sound Characteristics
The selected spruce top delivers clarity, attack, and a good dynamic range, useful for articulating bass lines without losing precision. The X-bracing (quartersawn profile) supports projection and top stability, providing a balanced response across the spectrum. The Lyrachord mid-depth body helps achieve controlled lows and a comfortable playing feel, while the Multi Soundhole concept contributes to more even sound dispersion. When plugged in, the Applause CE304T electronics (3-band EQ + tuner) allow quick adjustment of bass, midrange, and treble to suit a PA system, acoustic amplifier, or recording setup.
