Mellow?
The Hoppus bass comes equipped with an SD Quarter Pound pickup, which is wound for a bit of extra brightness. Also, due to the lack of a tone control, you get even more treble coming through then a bass with a tone control rolled completely on (which in all truth is actually off). I owned a Hoppus bass for a while, and mellow is not a word I would use to describe its tone, not by a long shot. Lots of midrange, lots of treble is how I would describe it. Cool sound, but that's all you get, and IMO, it ain't mellow.
