SIRE 24-FRET PASSIVE VINTAGE BASS

Sire's new passive vintage jazz bass with 24 frets allowing players to be more creative and versatile in soloing and cording due to longer and wider reach in the fretboard. Bearing Marcus Miller-approved Sire Champ neck features makes it a true knockout for the price point.


24- FRET ALL-VINTAGE BODY


The New Marcus Miller Jazz Type 24Fret body made of Alder is aligned with our standard V5 model's neck but with longer fretboard. This V5 variant will be truly enjoyed by players who want to get a full four octaves a breathing room playing wider range of notes up the neck.

ROASTED HARD MAPLE NECK


A feature of an aged wood that can be achieved by the meticulous process called "torrefaction."

SIMPLE PASSIVE CONTROLS


Allow the player to easily adjust and apply some personal taste to the overall vintage jazz sound.
