The Mic Fix 808C has the same tone-woods with elegant design features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael Fix\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eMaton\u003c\/strong\u003e have designed a guitar to compliment his playing style. The combination of a “AAA” Sitka Spruce soundboard, Ebony fingerboard, Ebony bridge and solid Queensland Maple back, sides and neck produces a tone that is rich, full, well balanced and with the glassy highs essential to the Maton EBG and Michael’s tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rain forest hardwood from Northern Queensland, this timber is light, strong, and visually striking. \u003cstrong\u003eQueensland Maple\u003c\/strong\u003e, while originally used as a \u003cem\u003eMahogany\u003c\/em\u003e \"substitute\", is extremely well balanced with an even response across all frequencies. If you are looking for the secret to Maton's great tone, this is a good place to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe proprietary Maton \"808\" body shape is similar, though slightly smaller that the US OM Model. However, the body depth of the 808 is substantially deeper at 4-7\/8\". This is significant, as moving the top and back further apart enhances the bass element within the tonal character of the voicing (bracing technique), complimenting the different wood combinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Maton AP5-Pro Electronics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn its 5th generation, the AP5 Pro features an internal Microphone and 6-Piezo bridge input, with controls that allow for blending of both microphone and piezo levels prior to sending the actively combined signals through the well engineered pre-amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe highly selective cardioid microphone system allows for much greater microphone level before feedback in live environments. This upgraded AP5-Pro microphone is direct mounted to the pre-amp casing with an adjustable arm, which permits easy final tweaking of microphone position to suit the individual artist's playing style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the ‘Sweep-able Mid’ controls. Mid-range is sweep-able from 600Hz to 2.4kHz and can be cut or boosted within this range. As a general rule we start out with all settings ‘flat’ then alter them to achieve the desired tone \u0026amp; presence based on the venue or recording environment. For example, an open, natural sound can be achieved by setting the frequency control at 1.4khz and the boost\/cut control at 5db. Alternatively, for a ‘thick’ lead sound boost your Mid's by 5db and set the frequency dial at 1.7kh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab1\" class=\"tab-pane fade active in\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab1\" class=\"tab-pane fade active in\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab1\" class=\"tab-pane fade active in\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab1\" class=\"tab-pane fade active in\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e EBG-808-C Mic Fix\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e 808 W\/Cutaway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"AAA\" Grade Sitka Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Queensland Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck: \u003c\/strong\u003eSelect\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eQueensland Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard \u0026amp;
