I think that wolfe-tones also exist as a standing wave amplification of a resonance frequency within the bass and/or from external sources like a cretain area of a room which can form as a catalyst for standing waves, and or feedback or another instrument playing at or within the overtone series of the note on the bass or resonance frequency or volume of the bass cavity. The result is a lagging of that not and subsequent overlay of the next note to be played, resulting in either a dead spot and./or feedback, and or beating due to tension of the mathematical interrelation of the frequencies.
