Overview of Sire P8 5-String Fretless Bass - Tobacco Burst
SIRE'S SWAMP ASH PJ BASS
The idea of integration in Sire basses starts with the P7 - being the first among the lines with P+J characteristics. Having the Marcus-signature pickup set, this hybrid guitar can produce both distinct bass and classic jazz tunes. The standard PJ bass of Sire got even better with the Swamp Ash variant that now has the roasted hard Maple neck with the EDGELESS™ feature. Installed with Marcus Miller-approved hardware and electronics, you get the best of sound and experience. It comes with a Sire official gig bag.
P BASS BODY & ROASTED MAPLE NECK
A solid body bass shape made of Swamp Ash is preferred to produce a defined midrange and strong low ends combined with the premium neck feature of an aged wood that can be achieved by the meticulous process called "torrefaction."
MARCUS MILLER SUPER-PJ REVOLUTION SET
A special combination of Marcus-signature humbucker and single coil pickups allows precise expressions of both the clear bass and jazz bass tones.
MARCUS MILLER HERITAGE- 3 PREAMP
Composed of a 3-band EQ and a switch allowing you to have complete tonal control from the active or passive modes.
