    In this range, human hearing is less sensitive, so these notes tend to be felt more than heard. [2] The low E-string on a bass guitar is usually tuned to 41.2 Hz, while the lowest note on a standard piano is A at 27.5 Hz. Sound reinforcement systems and PA systems often use one or more subwoofer loudspeakers to amplify sounds in the sub-bass range.

Its strings are much thinner than a conventional acoustic bass guitar , so it lacks the "thick" tone of those instruments.

[7] It has also been seen as either a useful or a detrimental tool for shaping the sound of a bass guitar.
