The frequency you feel in your chest before your ears catch up.
means The low-frequency range of sound, or the instrument or voice that produces those deep tones.
from This is really two words wearing the same spelling. The musical 'bass' (rhymes with 'face') comes from Italian 'basso,' meaning low, from Late Latin 'bassus,' short or low — the spelling drifted toward 'base' but the pronunciation never followed. The fish 'bass' (rhymes with 'lass') is a wholly separate creature, an alteration of older English 'barse,' related to words meaning bristle, for its spiny fins. Same four letters, two different deeps.
