Is this connector really bass plated or just painted to look like brass?

Sorry can't answer this question. I was not able to use the device as stated in my review. I don't hink it matters if it is brass or not as long as it fits your vehicle. It is mostly for smaller batteries.

It doesn't look like paint. But be warned it doesn't fit standard car batteries...

It is definitely not painted. It might be brass plated but it actually look more like cadmium. Anyway, the thing works as advertised. I had to shim the terminal with a piece of brass sheet, however, as my negative clamp was too big for it.

From what I could tell, took 5 mins to install and never looked further. I just turn the knob when needed. Works great!

I'm not sure, and I don't know how to tell for sure. If I had to guess, I would say they are solid brass. Sorry not to be more helpful.

The one I bought is chrome colored plastic. There is also one available in chrome coated brass.

I installed the wire last summer. Used 98+ ft from a 100 ft roll, ceiling mounted Bose 901's. Sound is exceptional. Cable was very flexible and certainly appeared to be all copper. Both positive and negative cable lines are copper colored but the positive is given a continuous red stripe. I have some similar cable used in an auto installation (14 or 16 GA) that is also all copper colored and very flexible. The positive line is identified with repetitive + + + +. It is pure copper as best I can tell.

Yeah, for sure a large sealed enclosure due to the high QTS (open baffle) parameters of in wall speakers. Ported would result in many trial and error tunings with midbass peaks. Try it out though, no difference between wall cavity and an enclosure to the speaker itself. Without T/S specs this will be a gamble, try around 1-1.5 (larger yields deeper bass extension roll off but less accuracy in bass tones) cube feet enclosure to mimic a wall cavity, heavy stuffing. Have fun.

Looks to be chrome-plated steel. Great quality. Regret only don't buy the same with sound.

It is pre-cut. A port is necessary. You can enlarge the port if you like to change the bass response.

I just looked it up on their site. The metal connector is 4050, not 4001. 4001 is the plastic one with chrome finish.

It is a full length bass, but its a terrible bass. I had a horrible experience with it. The pickups didn't pick anything up. And the strings popped while tuning.

The one i odered was metal and very nicely done. It was brushed brass and if you have had plates like these made they are thin metal. The plate was packaged very nicely and was pefect and easy to mount with the attached adhesive.

This is not a Jazz bass, it's a P-Bass body with humbuckers for the pickups. Thank you.

Doubtful, the gold plating is good for reducing corrosion. If both are corrosion free there shouldn't be any difference. PS most higher quality connectors are at least gold colored, some are actually gold plated.

Sorry, but I can't answer that. I share the same concern. I actually ordered the bass for a friend, and he hasn't had a chance to play it much yet. I guess we'll have to find out the hard way.

sergio: thanks for the question but i have never played a 5-string bass. the cost on this plate is almost nothing so what i did on a previous plate that didn't fit is i swapped it out for something else with my local music store. the plate is universal.

Nope! The target audience was clearly someone who knew what they were doing. Missed the boat on that one! I managed to put it all together... Kind of... But something about the wiring was still off (maybe I should have used less superglue hahaha! (Yes, that was a joke, I'm not stupid enough to use super glue, Duct tape is where it's at.) Regardless of my implied incompetence, I wired it to the best of my ability, and when it still didn't work I took it to my local guitar center, and it cost about $12. That being said, anyone who would like to see how it's done properly, feel free to email me at: jbgmn9@gmail.com I'd be happy to take my bass apart and send a few photos for anyone who needs it.

Connectors were brass. Unfortunately mine leaked and for my use in a finished basement a simple washer hose did the job.

Yes bass is solid, however fidelity is lacking when used with Bluetooth pairings, recommend hard wiring (included)
