Brilliant instrument!

PhilTheBass 26.03.2022

Moving to short scale to help my ageing left (fretting) hand. Got in on the basis of reviews, and I’m not disappointed. Super build quality - the neck is a dream to play.
Read some comments about neck dive - I’ve had no problems. Note sure about the round wounds that it came with, but I prefer flats, and have put a set of La Bells on it.

Can’t believe how good for the price. Playing inspires me to play better. Really not just a bass for people with small hands or beginners!

Great short scale bass

Pedro_M 27.01.2022

Build quality is excellent. Neck feels great!
Head is bit heavy due to heavy tuners... I can change this, so no problem.
Pick up is little weak, but the sound is clean... I can change this, so no problem.
Everything else is better than more expensive basses/guitars that I have owned.

Marcus Miller Sire bass surprised me with very good quality at a low price.

I bought another Marcus Miller P5 bass after I bought this one. Same issues as above, but great overall.

Great bang for buck!

Locket 14.12.2022

A lovely bass, looks great, very nice to play, sounds great and is versatile with both p and j pickups. It's very light also which is why I needed a new bass but very pleased with it would def recommend.

Report

A MOST impressive bass

SonnyP 10.11.2024

You've probably heard it from others: The Sire Marcus Miller line of basses is, by FAR, the best "bang for the buck". A reasonably priced instrument built with the quality, standards and finish of a MUCH higher bass . Thomann delivered quickly at the best price I could find anywhere. I'll be back!
