Sire Marcus Miller M5 Swamp Ash 5ST 5-String - natural
MARCUS MILLER M5 Swamp Ash 5ST (NT) solid body electric bass with active/passive preamp, is equipped with north Swamp Ash body, a wood of unusual quality at this price level ! other basses at this price range commonly use Basswood or Agathis tone wood but Sire Guitars chooses the traditional North American Alder which is known for its strong, clear full-bodied sound, with beefy mids and excellent lows that is perfect for the traditional jazz bass sound.
Also featuring 24 frets Ebony fingerboard.
With both classic and modern feel and design, this bass can produce the desired sound for all genres of music from soft to even strong metal grunge.
The Marcus Heritage 3 active/passive preamp uses 18v batteries enabling the player to attain unaltered natural sounds with strong and powerful outputs. With the 3-band EQ, players are able to carry out versatility in sounds that will be suited for all music sessions and performances.
All models are built with the option of both active and passive modes. Even in the passive mode, the volume, tone, and pickup balancer are fully functional, giving the players more control of the tone in any mode.
Made in Indonesia.
Pure-H Revolution pickups (punchy and solid mid-range, higher resolution and clearer sound), rolled fretboard edges, 9.5 radius, medium frets and satin finished neck for optimum comfort.
