The middle frequency control knob allows the player to set sound frequency anywhere between 200HM~1K HZ. This option will be very handy in finding the desired sound
Body Material - Swamp Ash
Premium swamp ash tone wood is usually found in higher priced instruments. Swamp ash tone wood is known to produce a well balanced tone. It is highly resonant and offers a nice balance of pleasant highs, firm lows, and a slightly scooped midrange which is great for slap playing. The characteristics of this wood enable players to emulate Marcus Miller?s tone a step further.
Body Material - North American Alder
A popular choice for most bass guitars is the North American Alder. Other basses at this price range commonly use Basswood or Agathis tone wood but Sire Guitars chooses the traditional North American Alder which is known for its strong clear full- bodied sound, with beefy mids and excellent lows that is perfect for the traditional jazz bass sound.
Tuning Gear
Stable and accurate tuning. Equipped with SIRE?s own premium open gear head machines developed with accurate gear ratio, the head machines are very reliable in turning.
Maple Fingerboard
Maple fingerboard delivers clear highs and sharpness in tone. The clear and clean sound of maple fretboard is desire by many players.
