5 String Electric Bass in Mahogany
Versatile 5-string bass with Marcus Miller electronics, rolled fretboard edges and active/passive tonal control
The Sire Marcus Miller V3 2nd Generation 5 String Electric Bass in Mahogany combines player-friendly features with flexible electronics and a comfortable Jazz-style design. Its mahogany body is paired with a Canadian hard maple neck and rosewood fretboard, while rolled fretboard edges provide a smoother feel along the neck. Dual Marcus Standard J-Revolution pickups work with the Marcus Heritage-3 preamp to deliver clear, detailed tones with both active and passive operation.
Features
The mahogany body uses Sire's New Marcus Miller Jazz Type shape for familiar balance and playing comfort. Its natural Mahogany finish highlights the simple, classic appearance of the instrument.
A Canadian hard maple neck features a comfortable C-shaped profile and four-bolt steel square plate joint. The rosewood fretboard has carefully rolled edges for a smoother, more refined feel, along with a 9.5 inch radius, medium frets and white pearl dot inlays.
The Marcus Standard J-Revolution pickup set is designed to produce a clear, detailed response with the familiar versatility of a dual J-style pickup configuration. A pickup blender provides smooth control between the neck and bridge pickups.
The Marcus Heritage-3 preamp provides extensive tonal control through treble, bass and sweepable middle-frequency EQ. A mini toggle allows the bass to switch between active and passive operation, while the dual volume and tone control maintains straightforward access to essential settings.
The Marcus Standard Bass Bridge features body-through stringing capability, while standard open-gear tuners provide familiar adjustment and tuning control. Chrome hardware and a three-ply black, white and black pickguard complete the traditional Jazz-style presentation.
