Sire V7VN A4 Marcus Miller Vintage New Gen 4-string active bass guitar tobacco sunburst

Vintage Jazz Bass with 70s Character

The Sire Marcus Miller V7 Vintage New Gen brings the 70s jazz bass sound into the present day. The North American alder body provides a warm and balanced tone, and the pickups are spaced at the classic '70s distance: further apart than the standard configuration, giving the bridge pickup a tighter and sharper character.

Vintage 7.25-inch Radius with Narrow Frets

The neck follows the vintage recipe: a 7.25-inch fretboard radius and narrow 2.0 mm frets, totaling 20 frets. This delivers the round, old-school playing feel that many bassists seek. The Edgeless™ rolled fretboard edges and the New Gen C-profile make the neck much more comfortable than the original.

Marcus Vintage-J Pickups with Heritage-3 Preamp

The Marcus Vintage-J Revolution pickups are paired with the simplified Marcus Heritage-3 preamp, which lacks a separate mid-frequency control. This keeps the controls straightforward: volume/tone, blender, treble/mid, and bass. The bass knob also doubles as the active/passive switch—pull it out and the bass operates fully passively.
