Reinterpreting the classics

Since 2015, Sire and bass legend Marcus Miller have been redefining what players can expect from an affordable instrument, offering outstanding quality and value. The new V5 series continues that mission. Designed for fans of the classic passive J-Bass, the V5 delivers timeless looks and authentic tones without unnecessary extras. True to Sire’s philosophy, however, it comes packed with premium features typically reserved for far more expensive instruments, including a roasted maple neck, rolled fingerboard edges, and a bone nut. The result is a bass that combines vintage character with modern playability and outstanding value.

Tradition meets modernity

"Never change a running system" perfectly sums up the philosophy behind the Sire V5, which captures the timeless spirit of the J-Bass while adding some subtle modern refinements. Featuring a classic alder body, paired with a maple neck and fingerboard, it relies on materials that have proven themselves over decades. A roasted finish enhances the stability of the neck and fingerboard against warping from humidity and temperature changes – while also giving them a rich caramel hue. Aesthetic touches like the transparent finish and bold block inlays complete the vintage-inspired look. At its heart, the V5 is powered by Sire's Marcus Vintage-J Revolution Jazz single-coil pickups. Each pickup features its own dedicated volume control, complemented by a shared passive tone knob, allowing the iconic J-Bass sound to be shaped with precision.

For J-Bass fans

Since 1961, the J-Bass has inspired generations of musicians and earned an enduring place in music history. The Sire Marcus Miller V5 follows proudly in that tradition, delivering the familiar sound and classic aesthetic that players love. Beyond its vintage character, the V5 introduces modern touches that enhance playability such as a roasted maple neck with rolled fingerboard edges. Thanks to its exceptional price-to-performance ratio, the V5 stands out not only as a top choice for players seeking an authentic J-style bass on a budget, but also as an attractive second instrument – for example, for guitarists who occasionally pick up a bass from time to time.

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.

A true all-rounder

Introduced over 60 years ago, the J-Bass quickly earned its place as a versatile classic, celebrated for its dual-pickup design and broad tonal range. That versatility lives on in the Sire V5. The bridge pickup delivers punchy mids with sharp attack, while the neck pickup provides deep, powerful lows – perfect for laying down a solid foundation. When blended, they create the legendary "best of both worlds" tone that has made the J-Bass a favourite across genres and playing styles, from fingerstyle to slap to pick playing. For those seeking even more vintage flavour, the passive tone control dials in classic warmth with ease.

very good Fender JB copy!
primitivo 21.02.2022
This bass looks nice and plays nice! Roasted maple neck and alder body match the color and laquer is faultless. Body resonates powerfully when practising without an amp. Neck is very comfortable, pickups are good, pots work well. Needed some fretfork and neck adjustment to avoid buzz but after that I really enjoy playing it and feel no difference to US made Fender JB-s.

A jazz bass through and through
Nickwolf 22.11.2024
I was looking for a bass as my only instrument.
I really like F type instruments in general... but lately I do not enjoy the quality you get for the price. For this reason I started looking for alternatives and I am glad I found Sire.
This v5 is a jb all the way to the moon and back.
The natural finish and the alder is fantastic and it is strings through!
The neck is very smooth, skinny, the frets are very well finished no sprout or sharp edges that I found.
The tuning machines are a copy of a famous brand (G) and they are well done. However, if ever they become problematic you can find tuning machines from Grover that may fit perfectly and there is no need to send the bass to a technician if you know how to use a screwdriver.
The bridge is simple, but it does all what it needs to do, string height and all the proper adjustment, there is no limitation here.
The nut is bone... C'mon what else can you ask for.
The pickups can be perhaps the weak point, I dont think they are bad... but I prefer silent pickups so this may be then only thing I would upgrade in the future... but no rush the bass sound really good.

Begeistert mit High-End-Verarbeitung
Gokhan K 07.07.2025
Ich habe sie vor sechs Monaten gekauft und sie hat mich sofort beeindruckt, sowohl spielerisch als auch klanglich. Der Passiv-Jazz-Bass liefert (70er‑Spacing) typisch knackige Mittel‑ und satte Tiefbässe. Er klingt „modern und aufgeräumt“.

Aus der Box klingt er bereits hervorragend, leicht nachzujustieren, aber nicht erforderlich.

Die Verarbeitung ist tadellos: lackierte Korpusoberfläche, gerollte Griffbrettkanten, perfekt gefeilte Bünde.

Das roasted Maple‑Halsgefühl wird von vielen als „Traumhals“ gelobt, butterweich in der Hand.

Der passive Ton ist klassisch, aber etwas leiser im Output im Vergleich zu aktiven Modellen, verschmerzbar bei entsprechendem Verstärker.

Trotz seiner Einstufung als Einsteiger-Instrument halte ich den V5 nicht nur für Anfänger geeignet, sondern auch absolut bühnentauglich. Die Verarbeitungsqualität und der durchsetzungsfähige Sound machen ihn auch im Live-Kontext zu einer verlässlichen Wahl.

Insgesamt ist der Marcus Miller V5 ein echtes Preis-Leistungs-Wunder. Wer ein vielseitiges, gut klingendes und hochwertig verarbeitetes Instrument sucht, wird hier definitiv glücklich.

Ich war so begeistert von diesem Bass, dass ich mir inzwischen auch den Marcus Miller M7 bestellt habe – das sagt wohl alles darüber, wie sehr mich dieser Bass überzeugt hat!
