First 5 string - Sire Marcus Miller V7 Reissue a good entry point?

[Geek99]

I always play sitting down (OMs only) so weight isn’t a major issue. It’s not light but I’m sure I’d be okay for a standup gig with it. I like the tight spacing and prefer its passive sounds to active. Since it has separated tone controls I have two sounds on tap just by switching between active and passive. Thats all I need

Just another +1 for the V7s. I've got a 5 string, 2nd generation and it's fantastic. That said, I'll be listing it on the members market very soon due to lack of playing (in general) and to pre-fund future plans

I can't unsee that now. It's odd.

I have seen quite a few pros using a Sire. Just the standard cooking models. Very respected.
