Magneton Jazzbird – Miro Rutscho
Miro Rutscho is a swiss bass player, member of Dream Pilot and an accomplished session player. His signature Magneton Bass is an improved version of the Firebird Bass – a very cool looking, but due to it's tendency to be very head heavy, nearly unplayable instrument. Magneton's Version isn't: It's cleverly chambered, so that it's balance is perfect. The old stock 1-piece mahogany body is lightweight and very resonant and the roasted maple neck with stabilizing graphite rods adds very much to the excellent sustain.
