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 is based on a traditional precision bass.
The Sire's high quality stands out because of its simple style that uses a passive circuit.
The neck is made of Roasted Maple with a satin finish.
This is also called thermowood.
Thermowood, which was put to practical use in the musical instrument field by Japan's Sago, was originally used in Finland as a construction material for saunas.
Thermowood is valued as a wood that is resistant to high temperatures and humidity, but it is clear that it is also useful for musical instruments, as it is used by leading manufacturers such as Sadowsky and Suhr.
Apparently, a certain number of Thermowood pieces end up being discarded due to their processing.
Probably, things that will warp in the future will also be repelled here.
In terms of sound, I get the impression that the nuances are very rich.
The fingerboard is Rosewood.
The edges are nicely rounded to improve playability.
Most players will have positive impressions of this specification.
Alder is used for the body, which is a very classic style for wood.
The fat and trebly nuance is an unmistakable P sound.
If you don't have a precision base that you're quite satisfied with, I highly recommend giving it a try.
Approximately 90% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is tight.
The neck is in good condition.
The condition of the body and paint surface is that there are scratches on the pickguard. There is a dent about 3.5mm near the 3rd fret, but this is not a problem for normal playing.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modification points were found.
