"[T]hey found German basses, which have a much narrower bore, to be superior in that regard."

I've played on both an old Uebel Oehler bass and a modern S&S German bore Boehm bass, and found that to be correct. I really prefer the German bore for most aspects of the instrument, not just the mid clarion. Chris P mentioned that bass bores are all pretty much cylindrical, so there really isn't a "Boehm bore," just wider bores and narrower ones, though of course the different tone hole configuration on Boehm instruments can make notes respond differently from how they do on German system instruments. Really wish more makers had an option of a narrower bore for Boehm basses, that you could use German-style mouthpieces on.
