Vinny Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Are these World Music? Big fan of a lot of their stuff, way more so than Cortek if I'm honest. Not knocking Corts, but WMC gear seems to be a couple of rungs up the quality ladder for the same price points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

booker64 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) Hi. II spoke to Sire as the V7 2nd gen I just bought from Amazon has a different bridge. Indeed it's a new one (for them). Looks like classic vintage to me So far I had no intonation issues. B string angle is a bit weird though, Edited October 8, 2020 by booker64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDSwim3 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 https://alter.com/trademarks/sire-86392372 This should clear things up regarding the "is Sire a rebranded Dame"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jd56hawk Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) So glad I'm not a Sire fanatic. I'd never be able to deal with such chicanery! Seriously, though, is this truly an issue of concern for Sire lovers? Edited December 22, 2021 by jd56hawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, though, is this truly an issue of concern for Sire lovers? Why would it be of any concern at all? Established brand, with manufacturing capability, in one country launches brand outside their country with a different brand name? You know a lot of other brands will be built for them by other manufacturers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korean company called Dame, makes a brand for outside Korea called Sire. Signs up big names to help sell stuff. No chicanery. As comparison, who built the Squier bass you like and started a thread about? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter to me if the Great Wall Rice company was the manufacturer. Edited December 22, 2021 by jd56hawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
