Sire V7N A4 Marcus Miller New Gen 4-string active bass guitar dark forest

Modern Jazz Bass with Heritage-3 Preamp

The Sire Marcus Miller V7 New Gen is the updated version of the bass that made Sire famous. The North American alder body provides an open, balanced fundamental tone with a tight attack and a clearly defined low end. The New Gen version has been updated in many respects: a revised neck profile, stainless steel frets, and lighter hardware for better balance on the strap.

Edgeless™ Neck with Stainless Steel Frets

The neck features the new C-profile with Edgeless™ rounded fretboard edges, allowing the hand to glide over it without sharp transitions. With a 34-inch scale length and a 9.5-inch fretboard radius, the bass plays familiarly, while the 2.4mm stainless steel frets hardly wear and allow for smooth bends.

Marcus Heritage-3 with Mid-Frequency Control

The Marcus Super-J Revolution pickups are amplified by the Marcus Heritage-3 preamp. In addition to high and low, it has a mid-control with adjustable mid-frequency, which allows you to steer the bass from a classic transparent jazz sound to a full, present midrange. The bass control works as a push-pull switch: pulling it out makes the bass passive, so you can continue playing without a battery.
