I tried a search. The subject has been addressed, and questions about fret material have been answered, but I saw no mention of fret wire size. The on-line specs just say, "high profile, wide".

So, what is "high profile, wide"? Is it 6100 fret wire, or something smaller?

I'm asking mainly out of curiosity. I used to favor "vintage" frets, but now whatever EBMM is using feels the best to my left hand.

Well, the frets on my Ibanez RG550 guitar are both higher and wider than the frets on my Sterling. So, I'm thinking the fret wire on EBMM basses might just be "Medium Jumbo"...?

Should I ask Mr. Owl? :D
