The 60's vs 70's pickup positions were relevant for passive basses and did change the sound of the bass.

These Sire basses are active which removes most of the pickup position issues.

I'm not sure that is entirely true.

The only thing that's budget about this bass is the price. If this bass was made in the USA or the UK it would cost three times what it costs now. I have a 5 string and every one who has seen it is blown away by the overall qaulity just as I was and the pre if sold alone in the states or the UK would not be cheap.





Sire endorser.


Here's a video clip of it.

This may seem an odd question but, how much do they weigh? I can't find any mention of weight on the Sire site.

I am sorely tempted. The spec seems great for the price

The weight of the Sire MM models.

M3 : 3.45kg = 7.6lbs
V7 Alder 4st : 4.33kg = 9.54lbs
V7 Ash 4st : 4.34kg = 9.56lbs
V7 Alder 5st : 4.67kg= 10.29lbs
V7 Ash 5st : 4.38kg = 9.65lbs
