Sire V7 Alder New Gen Electric Bass
Modern J-style bass with New Gen refinements, Super-J pickups and active/passive control
Overview
The Sire V7 Alder New Gen Electric Bass refines Sire’s original J-style platform with updated playability, improved balance and a clearer, more responsive voice. Built with a North American alder body, hard maple neck and hard maple fretboard, this New Gen model delivers a dependable blend of classic bass feel and modern versatility. With Marcus Super-J Revolution pickups, the Marcus Heritage-3 preamp and expanded tone-shaping controls, it is designed for players who need punch, clarity and flexible sound control from one stage-ready bass.
Features
The Marcus Miller Jazz Shape body gives the V7 New Gen a familiar, balanced feel while the North American alder construction supports a strong fundamental tone with clear mids and a responsive attack. Its 34 inch scale length and 20 mm string spacing keep the playing experience familiar for bassists moving between traditional and modern instruments.
The hard maple neck uses Sire’s New Gen C-shape profile for comfortable movement across the neck. A hard maple fretboard with Edgeless rolled fretboard edges gives the bass a smoother, more broken-in feel, while stainless medium fretwire adds durability and a precise playing surface for everyday practice, recording and performance.
The Marcus Super-J Revolution pickup set provides a clear and versatile J-style voice, while the Marcus Heritage-3 preamp with middle frequency control offers detailed tone shaping. Players can blend pickups, adjust bass, middle, treble and frequency response, then use the push/pull passive mode when a more traditional passive bass feel is needed.
