【used】Sire / V3 5st 2nd Generation 4.5kg #2N19521109【GIB Hyogo】【price included SHIPPING & IMPORT TAX & VAT】

Sire became famous for releasing basses supervised by Marcus Miller.

The quality of their guitars and basses is exceptionally high, earning them strong support not only from Marcus Miller fans but also from a wider audience.

This is the V3, modeled after the JB bass.

The body is made of mahogany.

High-quality mahogany is readily available in Indonesia, likely the source of this material.

The neck is maple, and the fretboard is rosewood—a classic wood combination.

The pickups are the Marcus Standard J-Revolution Set.

The preamp is the Marcus Heritage-3 with Middle Frequency Control.

While this model is positioned as an entry-level instrument, it uses the same pickups and preamp as the popular V7 series.

It features a tight yet harmonically rich, powerful sound with a moderate amount of compression.

This model is a must-try not only for those aiming for a Marcus Miller-esque sound, but also for anyone simply looking for a high-quality JB bass.

The frets have approximately 80% remaining.

The truss rod is in good condition.

The neck is in good condition.

The body and paintwork show scattered dents and scratches. There is some tarnishing on the metal parts.

The electronics are in good condition.

No obvious modifications were observed.

During setup, we used our original GIB BASIC / Standard Bass Strings.

These strings are characterized by their straightforward sound and stable playability, naturally bringing out the instrument's inherent character.

These are highly reliable strings that we actually use in our repair and setup workshops.

Please enjoy these strings, which aim to be a new standard for bassists.
