This is a visually stunning bass that has a massive array of tones on tap! This bass features a pair of the new Delano Xtender dual coil pickups (see below) both of which can be coil tapped and run in series and parallel, and they produce all the classic MM tones plus the usual single coil Jazz style tones and have amazing depth and clarity. The active three band eq is simple but quiet and effective and the bass will run superbly in passive mode with no loss of volume.

Argo -1 series

[1] Push/Pull Volume Control
By pulling the volume knob, the active preamp will be bypassed (true hardware-bypass), which deactivates the tone controls. The bass works without power supply (if required). In case that all tone controls are at the centre position, your hear no tonal difference between the active and the passive mode.

[2] Pickup Pan Control

Tone Controls: [3] Treble · [4] Mid · [5] Bass
The centre position (at 12:00) is flat, rotating the control clockwise will boost and rotating the control counter clockwise will cut the tone.

[6]* coil splitting toggle switches
When the toggle switch is in towards the neck position, each pickup (neck- and bridge pickup) is routed in series. When the switch is in towards the bridge position, each pickup (neck- and bridge pickup) works as single coil.
*Optionally this Argo has been equipped with two toggle switches, which allows to route both pickups independently from each other to single coil, parallel and in series.

Tech note: All pickup settings are hum free.

TheXtender HE/S

TheXtender bass pickup range is made to bring up the sound of your instrument to new frontiers. You most certainly have never experienced fat bass tone voiced that pure and sweet ever before. Imagine the amalgam of history and future.

Welcome to 21st century bass tone: X-tra massive bottom, maximum-definition, gutsy midrange growl and a world class wide open top end – these are the key ingredients of a new sound character that has simply no match in electric bass history.
These pickups comes in our newly designed oval-shaped protector shell, which means way more than just fancy looks. This fresh form factor offers a radically different approach to magnet array and string sensing pattern which greatly affects the way the DELANO TheXtender is capable to interact with the motion of the strings.
The DELANO TheXtender – a new breed of bass pickup that pours out unbelievable strength of TONE on any 4-, 5 or 6-string bass – even in full passive operation.
