Product Description
The Sire Marcus Miller P7 is the ultimate P-style bass, and this versatile Version 2 model improves on that winning formula! Equipped with a Jazz-type bridge pickup — the P7 gives you the best of both worlds from one complete instrument!
This is a fretless version of the P7 which, at this price point, is a great way to get into fretless playing. Version 2 retains the exceptional preamp and reliable quality, but adds a few improvements such as new pickups, a satin-finished neck, a flatter fingerboard and more!
Body & Neck
This P7 has an Alder body which gives it a well-rounded tone and a medium weight that won't hurt your back while gigging.
Sire have made a number of changes to the neck of the Version 2 P7s to make it more comfortable and playable. The fingerboards are now crafted from Ebony, which provides a smooth and natural-feeling playing experience and adds brightness to the sonic mix.
The fingerboard radius has been changed to 9.5 inches which makes fretting notes more comfortable, and the neck now has a satin finish which feels great in the hand and helps you to move up and down the neck with ease.
Redesigned Pickups
The P7 Version 2 features new and improved Marcus Miller Super Precision/Jazz Advanced Pickups. These pickups have been completely re-designed for a clearer, higher resolution sound. These pickups, in combination with Sire's much-praised active preamp, result in an articulate and open-sounding instrument.
Version 2 Updated
This 'Version 2 Updated' model gets yet another needed redesign; the square block saddles have been switched out for rounded block saddles. This means enhanced playing comfort, especially when muting or using a pick!
Sire Marcus Miller Basses
Marcus Miller is a world-renowned jazz and funk bassist with some of the best chops on the planet. He's worked with Sire to make affordable basses that far exceed their price-point in terms of feel, style and above all, sound.
How do they do this? Unlike a lot of other guitar companies that outsource their work, Sire own the factory where their basses are built. This means more efficient production and full control over the quality of their instruments from start to finish.
