THE SIRE SWAMP ASH J BASS
Sire's all-around flagship bass made of Swamp Ash body is now called Sire V8. It is upgraded with the Marcus Miller-favorite Sire Champ neck composed of the EDGELESS™ feature and roasted hard Maple material on the neck and fingerboard for a fancier feel while playing it. It comes with Sire official gig bag.
J BASS BODY & ROASTED MAPLE NECK
is Marcus Miller-approved body shape feature for Swamp Ash-made bass guitars to produce genuine jazz sound combined with the premium neck feature of an aged wood that can be achieved by the meticulous process called "torrefaction."
MARCUS MILLER SUPER-J REVOLUTION SET
is a signature J Bass pickup set made with USA plain enamel coil which produces a higher resolution and clearer sound coming from the '70s pickup spacing.
MARCUS MILLER HERITAGE-3 PREAMP
is composed of a 3-band EQ and a switch allowing articulate tonal options from the active or classic passive modes.
OFFICIAL SIRE GIG BAG
Comes included with the V8, providing premium protection and stylish convenience for your instrument wherever you go.
