stingrayPete1977 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Behringer BDi 21, some Dunlop 1.00mm picks and a bag of angle jack patch leads that I was getting desparate for on its way from Thomann, gone from no pedals to loads of bloody pedals now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I've just got one of the new Sire V7 Marcus Miller 5 string jazz basses. Really glad I didn't go for the Squier now. Lovely bass, 18volt preamp with sweepable mids, smaller frets, blocks and inlays, all for £315 delivered. Plays like a dream and the tone options are amazing. It's a bit of a beast as far as tone goes, needs taming a bit and going easy on the EQ. It's defintly a modern super jazz tone rather than a warm Fender jazz tone, but I like that. Also works in passive mode where the more traditional jazz tones live, although it still doesnt manage ' vintage' like my Squier Jazz.

EBS_freak Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) I been watching the development of the sire basses. Good stuff. Would like to lay my hands on one some day! Edited March 3, 2015 by EBS_freak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Yes it's all good mate, I'd like to try some other passive jazzes with my amps/cabs to see if adding the active preamp is what I want but the bdi box is ok for now to fatten it a bit, I cant fault the bass as it feels like a proper workhorse with the right number of strings! The wider spacing is a bit tricky for some more intricate stuff but thats mainly from being used to Ray5s, the clarity of a genz shuttle and narrow spacing has probably improved my playing loads to be fair, nowhere to hide!
