Collaboration with a legend

Marcus Miller V3 MA 2nd Gen electric bass

The partnership between Indonesian company Sire and American bass legend Marcus Miller has been a successful one for many years now, and one of the many fruits that it has borne is the Marcus Miller V3, shown here in its second generation. The Sire MM V3 is a four-string "J-bass" that is equal to its bigger brother (the V7) in virtually every aspect - the only difference being that a smaller number of options are available in terms of woods and finishes. Apart from that however, the V3 provides the authentic sound of a "J-bass" together with the same playing feel that bassists know and love. The proprietary Marcus Miller "Heritage 3" preamp and three-band EQ are on board too, making this an immensely versatile bass. This second generation also boasts additional highlights such as fingerboard edges that have been meticulously rolled and smoothened for ehnanced comfort - a detail usually only found on instruments in much higher price brackets. This wealth of features Sire's ambition to provide high-quality basses at extremely reasonable prices.

Classic concept meets sonic versatility

The foundation of the Sire MM V3 is a combination of a mahogany body, maple neck, and 20-fret rosewood fingerboard. The neck has a C-shape profile and is 38mm wide at the nut, and the V3 has a 34" scale length, so it provides a familiar "J-bass" playing feel that will have bassists feeling at home right away. What is more, the "Edgeless™" fingerboard means that the player can move around the neck however they want without any uncomfortable fret edges getting in the way. Two Marcus Miller J-Revolution single coil pickups combined with the preamp system mentioned above are the sonic heart of this bass, and players can choose between a conventional passive mode in which the pickups are governed by a single tone control and a modern active mode in which the separate controls for bass, mid, and treble frequencies provide extended tonal flexibility. The elegant Mahogany Red finish complements the V3 perfectly and gives it a timeless look that will suit any musical style.

The V3's sophisticated electronics provide a wide range of tonal options. In passive mode, the player has a dual pot with controls for volume and tone as well as a pickup blend knob at their disposal. The mini-toggle switch can be used to put the bass in active mode, in which the three-band EQ controls can then be used to sculpt the sound to suit the player's requirements even more precisely. In addition to the controls for bass, mid, and treble frequencies, a parametric boost/cut control for the mid frequencies lets the player shift the mid-range focus steplessly between 80Hz and 2kHz. And since the active tone circuit operates at 18V, plenty of headroom and dynamic scope is always ensured.

For "J-bass" fans who want a little more

"J-style" basses have decisively helped to shape the course of music history and garnered immense popularity with players everywhere - and with good reason. Despite the standard design already offering two pickups and a passive tone control, however, many players want a "J-bass" that will give them even more sonic versatility to keep them in step with today's musical world. The Sire MM V3 is therefore the perfect bass for anyone who has set their sights firmly on the classic "J-bass" design but also wants to have those punchy modern sounds at their fingertips. The budget-friendly price of this bass also makes it an interesting choice as a backup instrument as well as a good candidate for guitarists who additionally pull double duty on the bass.

About Sire

Sire, now based in California, was originally founded by a Korean guitar maker who had been successful in Asia since the late 90s. Since 2015, Sire has created a wide range of basses in collaboration with international superstar Marcus Miller, which combine modern versatility with classic looks and are hugely successful worldwide. In 2020, Sire’s range was expanded once more to include acoustic and electric guitars, this time in collaboration with Larry Carlton. Whether Marcus Miller basses or Larry Carlton guitars, Sire always delivers excellent quality in different price brackets.

At home in every genre

Since the 1960s, the two-pickup "J-bass" design has been at home in virtually every style of music, from Soul, Blues, Reggae, and Funk through to Rock and Metal. The bridge pickup delivers a punchy mid-range response with plenty of attack, while the neck pickup provides a full-sounding low-end presence. And combining both pickups produces a sound that has become universally known and loved in all manner of genres and with every playing style. Thanks to its optional active three-band EQ controls, the V3 is significantly more versatile than its purely passive counterparts and will easily be able to handle the demands of the modern music production environment - from Metal bass tones with plenty of bite, attack, and punch through to contemporary R&B or Reggae sounds with a full low end and understated midrange response. And since the V3's active circuit operates at 18V, unwanted distortion will not occur.

Ongekende klasse
David de bassist 23.11.2020
Deze bas is echt ongelofelijk. De afwerking is prachtig, en het geluid nog beter! Ik gebruik de bas tijdens optredens, en heb er al veel complimenten over gehad. Verder is het geluid en de toon door middel van alle knopjes op de bas zelf goed in te stellen.
Kortom, als je twijfelt of je deze bas wel of niet moet kopen... DOEN!
Je zult er geen seconde spijt van hebben.

Pronkstuk voor de liefhebber
Mathijs. 04.03.2021
Ik zocht een basgitaar die niet al te duur was en daarnaast goed geluid in zich heeft. Ik heb een kleine thuisstudio en ik zocht een bas die beschikt over een mooie slap en een warm geluid. De Marcus Miller V3 beschikt over het geluid waar ik naar op zoek was. De V3 MA heeft een mooie kleur (ook belangrijk) en voelt goed aan. De hals is uitstekend afgewerkt en doet niet onder aan duurdere varianten.

Het geluid:
Als Marcus Miller zijn naam er achter zet dan moet de bas wel goed kunnen slappen, en ja dat doet hij. Zonder al te veel moeite klinkt de bas al mooi. Met name de liefhebber van blues, soul en jazz zal hier van smullen.

Negatieve punten:
Voor mij is er geen reden om een andere bas te kopen. Maar stel je speelt in een band en je wil iets meer power en iets meer kracht dat zijn de modellen boven de V3 een aanrader, of natuurlijk de top range fenders.

Zoek je dus een basgitaar waarmee je lekker kan jammen, voor je thuisstudio, een klein optreden of voor simpel oefenen thuis, dan is deze geschikt

Nice budget bass
leshka 21.12.2020
Overall very nice budget bass filled with features, highly recommended. In my case neck wood grain is just great. Fretboard edges are very noticeably rounded which is very nice feature that gives the neck very ergonomic feel along with satin finish. Frets are as good as they need to be, no fret buzz. Maybe professional luthier with all his diagnosis tools could find something wrong about them but I couldn't. Tuners and bridge are probably pretty basic but they do the job. Tuners work smooth and precise enough and holds fine. Bridge have all the adjustments and also got option for throught-body stringing. Preamp works as advertised and expected (you can find video on YT where Marcus himself explain every knob). Wiring done great, electronics cavity and cover are shielded with graphite and foil which I didn't expected at all. For the price it have very nice touches here and there all over the instrument. It feels good in hands, everything works properly and it sounds good. I'd say it pays off every penny and highly recommended if you're looking for a new bass guitar in this price range.
