ALL STEEL MATERIAL BRIDGE – MARCUS STANDARD BASS BRIDGE (WITH BODY THRU HOLE OPTION)
The M2 is equipped with Marcus Standard Bass Bridge. Just by looking at it, the bridge may look like a low-cost bridge made with Zinc plate or Zinc saddle. However, the bridge is made with a Steel saddle and Steel plate. Normally, introductory basses use a type of alloy called Zinc. Bass bridges made with Zinc is very easy to manufacture and inexpensive. However, these Zinc bridges may look good on the outside, but it is difficult to create a good bass sound. The M2 model’s Marcus Standard Bass Bridge may look like a simple basic bridge made with Zinc, but it is an All Steel Material Bridge.
