Description

Let us introduce you to the Sire F10 Dx 4 Bass Guitar in Natural Spalted Maple Top.

The Sire F10 Dx 4 is a premium, modern single cut active bass designed for players who want boutique feel and sound without the boutique price tag. With its Swamp Ash body, striking Natural Spalted Maple top and neck thru 5 piece Maple and Mahogany construction, this four string model delivers huge sustain, effortless upper fret access and a seriously high end aesthetic. Add in Marcus Custom H Revolution pickups, the Heritage 3 HD preamp and 24 stainless steel frets, and you have a versatile, contemporary workhorse ready for fusion, gospel, pop or modern rock.

Every detail of the F10 Dx 4 has been considered for performance and comfort. The Edgeless Ebony fingerboard with rolled edges feels smooth and broken in straight out of the box, while the deluxe modern single cut body shape offers excellent balance whether you are on stage or in the studio. The Marcus Heavymass Custom bridge and black satin hardware complete the look and help deliver a tight, focused low end that cuts through any mix.

Premium Neck Thru Construction

The F10 Dx 4 features a neck thru design with a 5 piece Hard Maple and Mahogany neck running the full length of the instrument. This construction enhances sustain, improves resonance and gives you unhindered access to all 24 frets. The result is a bass that feels incredibly solid under the hands and responds evenly across the entire fingerboard, ideal for technical lines, chords and expressive soloing.

Edgeless Ebony Fingerboard

Sire’s Edgeless fingerboard treatment with rolled fretboard edges makes the F10 Dx 4 exceptionally comfortable to play. The smooth Ebony surface, 12 inch radius and medium 2.4 mm stainless frets combine to create a fast, precise playing platform that suits everything from low action slap setups to articulate fingerstyle. Long sets become less fatiguing, and position shifts feel natural and seamless.

Marcus Custom H Revolution Electronics

At the heart of the F10 Dx 4 is a set of Marcus Custom H Revolution pickups with wooden covers, paired with the Marcus Heritage 3 HD preamp. This combination delivers a rich, modern voice with plenty of clarity, punch and warmth. With Volume and Tone, a pickup Blender, dedicated Bass, Middle with selectable frequency, Treble and a Pickup Variation switch, you can dial in everything from tight, aggressive rock tones to wide, hi fi fusion sounds with ease.

Modern Single Cut Style and Hardware

The Swamp Ash body with Natural Spalted Maple top gives the F10 Dx 4 a distinctive boutique look that stands out on any stage. The new Marcus Heavymass Custom bridge and premium diecasting tuners in black satin finish provide rock solid tuning stability and excellent string to body energy transfer. With no pickguard to interrupt the grain, the spalted top becomes the visual centrepiece of a bass that looks as refined as it sounds.
