(ARCHIVE) Sire Marcus Miller V7 Vintage Bass Black 2019
- Description
- Guitarchives
Sire Marcus Miller V7 Vintage, black semi gloss finish, made in Indo 2019. In the last few years, it's hard to think of a newly released bass model that turned as many heads as these Sire MM basses. It makes sense: this is a great bass. It's based off Marcus' famed 1977 Fender Jazz Bass, but it's got a few distinct touches; most notably the widely acclaimed active preamp. You can dial in all manner of tones with it, the possibilities are many and varied. The combo of an alder body and a maple board mean you've got a nice punchy, full base to work off, then you can mix in some extra flavour according to taste. Needless to say, the black on black with block inlays looks pretty darn tidy too. Save a couple of hundred on the new price, this one is almost mint. Thanks Marcus!
