Depending on the quality of the material and elasticity, the nut can either improve or degrade the sound. Although the bone nut is more costly and harder to work with, it is considered to deliver more balanced, clearer and smoother tones than plastic or other materials.\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEbony fingerboard\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEbony fingerboards are made with very dense wood that delivers clear, crisp, and well-rounded tones.\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMarcus Heavy Mass bridge\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMarcus Miller SIRE V7 bass is equipped with the newly designed Marcus Heavy Mass Standard Bridge which was specially developed at the request of Marcus Miller.

These rounded edges will give players a firmer and more natural grasp, compared to the typical fretboards.We were well aware of the difficulties we would face in our ambition to apply the rolled fretboard edges in a mass production factory. Together with the production team, we worked tirelessly to make this theory a reality.This was quite a challenge, almost an impossible mission.We tried making several adjustments to the production process and even introduced a new machine. Since our Sire basses also have bindings, this made it exceptionally challenging, way beyond our imaginations. But eventually, we found the answers and we are ecstatic to present the Rolled Fretboard Edges in all our 2nd Generation models.\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMarcus Super-J Revolution pickups\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWe have changed the Alnico Magnet’s magnetizing method to produce the similar aging sound of a 20-year-old Heavy Formvar Pickup.
