Sire suddenly became famous as a brand that released basses supervised by Marcus Miller.
The quality of the guitars and basses they manufacture is extremely high, and they are highly supported by people other than Marcus fans.
This model has a jazz bass motif.
It is equipped with an active circuit, typical of Marcus's style, and is finished with modern classic specs.
I think this is the original specification.
Maple is used for the neck and fingerboard.
The edges of the fingerboard are nicely rounded to improve playability.
Most players will have positive impressions of this specification.
The body is made of ash with a smooth wood grain.
The pickup position is the same as Fender's 70's JB.
A unique tight and powerful sound is obtained.
There are plenty of controls including volume, tone, balancer, bass, middle, middle frequency, treble, and active-passive switch.
It may seem complicated at first glance, but from a bass player's perspective, it makes sense.
Although it is tight, it is rich in overtones and has a powerful sound with a moderate amount of compression.
Not only for those aiming for a Marcus-like sound, but also for those simply looking for a high-quality jazz bass, this is a model you should try.
Approximately 80% of the frets remain.
The truss rod works well.
The neck is in good condition.
The condition of the body and paint surface is that there are some dents and scratches here and there.

The bridge has been replaced with an Omega Bass Bridge.
