A Vintage-Correct J-Style Bass Refined with New Gen Consistency

The Sire V7 Vintage New Gen, a new addition to the New Gen series, delivers an authentic old-school J-style experience with a truly traditional feel and tone. It’s a bass that looks, sounds, and responds like a classic, while benefiting from subtle updates that make it more comfortable, balanced, and consistent for today’s players.

VINTAGE-CORRECT NECK GEOMETRY WITH NEW GEN PLAYABILITY

Built with a New Gen C-shape neck, the V7 Vintage New Gen pairs a 7.25″ vintage fingerboard radius with 2.0 mm small fretwire for an authentic, old-school playing feel. The Edgeless™ feature add comfort, while the optional roasted Maple neck improves stability and long-term reliability without changing the classic character.

VINTAGE-VOICED ELECTRONICS WITH SIMPLIFIED SIGNAL PATH

The V7 Vintage New Gen is equipped with the Marcus Vintage-J Revolution pickups with '70s pickup spacing for warm, articulate classic J-bass tone, paired with a streamlined Marcus Heritage-3 preamp (no mid-frequency control) featuring push/pull active-passive switching for a straightforward, vintage-focused sound.

NEW GEN STYLE VINTAGE HARDWARE AND AESTHETICS

The Vintage-S bridge and lightweight open-gear tuners deliver a classic look with a balanced, comfortable feel on the strap. Vintage-style details like dot inlays, binding, and a Tortoise pickguard complete the old-school vibe, now built with improved New Gen consistency you can rely on.
