Will this improve the sound of the bass in anyway or is it just a cosmetic enhance?

when you first buy the guitar, most guitarists will remove the cover for more use of the length of the strings. it is a more gutsy treble solid sound as opposed to leaving the cover on. try it without cover and you can tell the difference. i could name a bunch of world class bassists i have seen in person with the bridge cover removed.

most likely sound effect is nill. as for the guy claiming "noise shielding"..negitive on that unless it is a grounded cover which i have never seen. it is a palm rest for the obsolete motown style of play. looks cool though

Only cosmetic. However, it will affect your sound in that it will restrict you to not picking directly over the neck pickup, so before considering looks, you should decide whether you can live with your tone when playing elsewhere. In my case, I was consistently picking between the neck and bridge pickups, so the pickup cover did not interfere.

The pickup bridge is more than cosmetic as suggested by other answers. The idea by Fender, was to give a palm rest for playing.It does not enhance the sound of the bass at all. Your controls on the guitar and the quality of your amp settings does that.

Its a cosmetic enhancement om humbucking pickups. On jazz basses with single coil pickups it completes the shielding, if you have shielded underneath the pickups.

More a cosmetic enhancement. I doubt that any "wrap effect" over the humbucker would affect it.

It is hard to tell how much it it be improved. The cruel fact is not all amps given certain speakers/ headphone same result, thus system matching is critical in audio term; one sounds better with this amp but less impress with others IMHO.

I can't say if if their will be a big diff. but there will be a difference in richness of sound, if you get a better tube it will be even better.

Not sure, but one thing for sure is that you get more bass without it, when it's connected the bass is almost half it's potential not sure why.

It does, but you have to lower the bass to improve clarity in my experience.

it has a 3.5" driver so adjust your expectations accordingly. That said, the bose gives the illusion of having more bass by shortening low end frequency response and cranking up mid-bass. the same can be achieved with this speaker by installing an equalizer app on your phone.

It looks like the amp does something to the sound to make it sound less like headphones, so possibly, but I can't at all say for sure.

You would have to hear it for yourself... the extra bass is more pronounced. It's hard to verbalize the sound difference. You would have to listen to the same song with each.

I use it for that, but I bought this with listening to music in mind. No doubt, its bass-leaning tendency gives more "oomph" in in-game explosions.

Yes Sound Quality is a lot better more balanced and the design is stronger. Overall better improvements

Yes John, it works great. I looks cool and it makes the sound much greater.

Same with what Kyle B. said Anand. This is just an extension cable, it doesnt improve existing sound but it is good enough to keep it from degrading which is the usual case when buying these types of cables.

No, but it will increase total sound over all to a crisper more detailed sound.... You can not increase one channel over another unfortunately.

Yes.....the overall sound quality is better. Good bass, excellent mids and highs. Love this thing and would recommend it to everyone.

It will fix most of the sound leak but that's only when played rather loud and the vents being covered will dramatically reduce the bass and shrink the sound stage. I know because I tried this in public places and at home to see what it would do.

These do improve the sound immensely (of course depending on what you already have.) They do not have a great amount of bass, however, I've noticed the sound is much much cleaner. I definitely recommend these if you are looking for quality sound, especially in higher registers.

Without the sub the bass is really non existent. Truthfully with the sub it's not bad. I don't think anyone would notice unless its cranked all the way up.
