Note
An ordinary -er comparative built on the adjective for a sound, voice or instrument low in pitch. It ranks one sound against another, as in a taller pipe giving a basser sound, and usually takes than. The same spelling also works as a noun with the plural bassers, naming a bass performer or a bass angler. Only the comparative compares, so a following than marks the adjective.
