Sire V7 ALDER-5 LPB V7 Series 5 String Alder Lake Placid Blue Bass Guitar
The Sire V7 ALDER-5 LPB from the Marcus Miller V7 Series is a professional-grade 5-string jazz bass guitar, crafted to meet the standards of working musicians who demand versatility, tonal clarity, and elegant design. This bass features a body made from North American alder, prized for its balanced resonance and warm mids, all wrapped in a stunning Lake Placid Blue gloss finish that stands out on stage and in the studio.
At the heart of the V7 ALDER-5's sonic excellence are the Marcus Super-J Revolution pickups. These high-performance single-coils are engineered to deliver punch, clarity, and responsiveness, suitable for a wide range of musical styles. Whether you're laying down a solid groove or soloing over complex changes, this bass brings the tone forward with articulation and warmth.
The Marcus Heritage-3 preamp system offers supreme tonal flexibility, providing active/passive operation and a 3-band EQ for sculpting your sound with precision. With this preamp, players can seamlessly switch between classic passive jazz tones and more modern active clarity and presence.
The hard maple neck and rosewood fingerboard are crafted for smooth playability, enhanced by Sire's signature rolled fretboard edges—an ergonomic detail that’s typically found on boutique-level instruments. The 20 medium jumbo frets provide a consistent feel, while the neck's modern profile allows for comfortable navigation across all five strings.
Additional hardware includes vintage-style open gear tuners for precise tuning stability, and the Marcus Big Mass bridge enhances sustain and adds rich harmonic content to every note. Altogether, the Sire V7 ALDER-5 LPB is a premium bass guitar designed for jazz, funk, gospel, fusion, and all modern genres where tone and touch matter.
