Sire Marcus Miller V7 Vintage New Gen Electric Bass, 5-String

zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Sire recreates the vintage J-style look, sound, and feel -- and adds their own New Gen refinements to make this V7 one supremely comfortable 5-string bass.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
C-shaped neck profile Comfortable, rounded oval shape
Hard maple neck Extremely strong; bright tonal character
Marcus Vintage-J Revolution pickups Vintage-voiced pickups; clear midrange
North American alder body Light weight with a wide tonal range

Vintage-Correct Neck Geometry with New Gen Playability:
The V7 Vintage New Gen uses a revised New Gen C-shape neck paired with a 7.25" vintage fingerboard radius and 2.0 mm small fretwire, delivering a more traditional feel compared to the standard V7. Edgeless rolled fretboard edges improve comfort while preserving vintage geometry. Roasted maple neck options enhance stability and long-term consistency without altering the classic playing experience.

Features:

- Fast attack & enhanced upper-mid presence
- North American Alder body
- Hard Maple neck
- Edgeless fretboard for comfort
- Marcus Vintage-J Revolution pickup
- Marcus Heritage-3 preamp
- Blender Knob for pickup balance
- Push/Pull Bass knob for passive/active toggle

Vintage-Voiced Electronics with Simplified Signal Path:
This model features the Marcus Vintage-J Revolution pickup set, voiced specifically for warm, articulate, traditional J-bass tone. The Marcus Heritage-3 preamp (no mid-frequency control) uses a simplified four-knob layout with push/pull active-passive switching, reducing complexity and preserving a more traditional tonal response.

Traditional Hardware and Aesthetics with Updated Consistency:
The Vintage-S bridge, lightweight open-gear tuners, and period-correct cosmetic details (dot inlays, binding, tortoise pickguard) reinforce the vintage positioning while benefiting from improved New Gen production consistency. Lightweight tuners help maintain balance while retaining a traditional look and read more feel.
