Sire became famous as the brand that released the bass supervised by Marcus Miller.
The quality of the guitars and basses they produce is very high and highly supported by non-Marcus fans.
This model is an updated version of the V7, part of a jazz bass motif.
In the style of Marcus, it is equipped with an active circuit and has a modern classic spec.
The neck is made of satin-painted roasted maple.
This is also known as thermo wood.
Thermowood, which was commercialised in the field of musical instruments by Sago of Japan, was originally used in Finland as a building material for saunas.
It is a wood that is highly valued for its resistance to high temperatures and humidity, and its usefulness for musical instruments is evident from the fact that leading manufacturers such as Sadowsky and Suhr have adopted it.
A certain amount of thermowood is said to be discarded due to its processing.
Probably, some that will warp in the future will also be played here.
The sound has a strong impression of a mellow nuance.
The pickup position is similar to Fender's 70's JB.
This gives it a unique tight and powerful sound.
Unlike the V7 series, the bridge is equipped with the new "New Marcus Heavymass II Bridge".
The style of actively adopting new specifications is very impressive.
Controls include volume, tone, balancer, bass, middle, middle frequency, treble and active/passive switch.
At first glance it looks complicated, but from a bassist's point of view it makes sense.
It has a tight but overtone-rich, powerful sound with just the right amount of comp.
This model is a must-try for those aiming for a Marcus-like sound, but also for those simply looking for a high quality jazz bass.
