Although it has plenty of amazing features, probably the first thing you\u2019ll notice about this L\u00f6wenherz Basses Majesty Clarke 5-string is its custom handmade brass lionhead sustainer bridge. L.A.-based dealer Bass Exchange\/Amp Shop, who is selling the bass, says the 330-gram piece adds tons of sustain.<\/p>\n<p>The bass is built with a swamp ash body and a quilted maple top that is stained in black. Its bubinga and maple neck has an ebony fingerboard with 24 frets adorned with Abalone diamond inlays. <\/p>\n<p>L\u00f6wenherz fits the Majesty Clarke with three of their Magic Bucker pickups. \u201cYou can split the coils and then you will have six pickups in general,\u201d L\u00f6wenherz writes. \u201cWith these six pickups you can create sounds from precise Jazz sounds up to extraordinary positions \u2013 everything is possible. For each coil you have a separate On\/Off-Switch. That makes it easy to explore new grounds, if you are ready for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As if that wasn\u2019t enough control, the bass is fitted with a Noll fully parametric EQ. <\/p>\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"carousel-sync-wrap\">\n<div class=\"carousel-gallery carousel-sync-main\">\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Lowenherz-Basses-Majesty-Clarke-5-string-Bass-Body-2-1000x667.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Lowenherz-Basses-Majesty-Clarke-5-string-Bass-Body-1000x667.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Lowenherz-Basses-Majesty-Clarke-5-string-Bass-Angle-1000x667.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Lowenherz-Basses-Majesty-Clarke-5-string-Bass-Back-1000x667.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Lowenherz-Basses-Majesty-Clarke-5-string-Bass-Headstock-1000x667.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item -->\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-main -->    <\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-sync-nav\">\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item -->\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-nav -->  <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-wrap --><\/div>\n<p><!-- .section --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week we\u2019re checking out a real stunner.
