  1. So here is my “as new” Sire P7 thought a 5 would make things easier but decided to stick with my fours with D tuners. Original packaging original condition. Staplocks fitted but will include stock buttons


     

    Here are all the details courtesy of the Andertons site who are out of stock as many dealers are but list this at £639 new. 
     

    Product Description

    The Sire Marcus Miller P7 is the ultimate versatile, vintage-style bass and this Version 2 model improves on that winning formula. The P7 is essentially a P-bass with an added Jazz bridge pickup giving you the best of both worlds in one instrument.

    Two new V2 Updated additions

    The P7 Updated model features two major upgrades: sleek aluminium dials replace the previous model's plastic knobs, and square block saddles have been upgraded to more comfortable round block saddles.

    New features

    The focus of the upgrade has been to improve the overall sound quality and playing comfort of the P7. Marcus Miller worked alongside Sire to redesign the pickups with stronger magnets and coils to deliver a cleaner, deeper tonal palette.

    Sire have also overhauled the neck design. The P7 now features an extremely comfortable rolled edge fretboard, which you'd usually only find on high-end basses. The neck radius has been extended to 9.5-inches and fretted models are adorned with new medium frets, making for a quicker and more accurate playing experience. The gloss neck coating has been replaced with a much classier satin finish.

    Construction

    Sire like to mix and match woods. The P7 is made of either a well-balanced alder or a slightly brighter swamp ash body. A hard maple neck offers excellent stability and is topped by either a maple or ebony fingerboard.

    Electronic Blend

    The Marcus Miller Super-PJ Revolution set of pickups offer further sonic intrigue. The upgraded jazz bass pickups allow for a blend of vintage jazz bass sound and the unique precision bass tone. This sound is then improved via the Marcus Miller Heritage-3 preamp, leading to great versatility and a full, clear overall tone.

  2. What's to say about Sire basses ?

     

    Ridiculous value for money great build quality ace versatile preamp. This one is no exception plays really nicely growls thumps and does all the active jazz noises. Just restrung with DR High Beams.

     

    While shop to UK Mainland in a proper box included in the price.

     

    Im loath to say the bass is mint as I'm sure if you spent ages with a magnifying glass you could find something so let's outstanding condition and priced to sell.

     

    Just in case you've been living under a rock for the last 5 years here's all the info (Courtesy of Andertons website)

     

    Sire Marcus Miller V7 basses sound better and play smoother than ever before in the 2nd Gen range. The flagship V7 has been kitted out with two advanced single coil pickups bearing a full set of EQ controls, allowing you to mould your perfect personalised tone. Other upgrades can be found made to the neck and fretboard for a new, premium feel.

     

    Version 2 Updated

     

    The V7 Updated model boasts an improved design: the square block saddles have been switched out for more comfortable round block saddles.

    New Features

     

    The focus of the Version 2 upgrade has been to improve the overall sound quality and playing comfort of the V7. Marcus Miller worked alongside Sire to redesign the pickups with stronger magnets and coils to deliver a cleaner, deeper tonal palette. Sire have also overhauled the neck design. The V7 now features an extremely comfortable rolled edge fretboard, which you'd usually only find on high-end basses.

    Body and Neck

     

    The V7 Vintage has either an alder body that adds darker tones and warmth, or a swamp ash body which is known for its brightness. The hard maple neck offers excellent stability and is topped with a classy maple fingerboard, standard on all V7 Vintage basses.

    History of Sire Marcus Miller Basses

     

    Sire have rightfully earned massive praise for their bass range. They've worked with world-renowned jazz and funk bassist Marcus Miller to make instruments that are affordable but far exceed their price point in terms of feel, style and above all, sound. How do they do this? Unlike a lot of other guitar companies that outsource their work, Sire own the factory where their basses are built. This means cheaper production and full control over the quality of instrument from start to finish.

    Sire instruments are also doing the world a bit of good by taking a share of the corporate profits and giving back to society. They founded schools in Cambodia and Laos to teach children’s music lessons.
