Marcus Miller - P7 Alder-5 Tobacco Sunburst

The Sire Marcus Miller P7 Alder-5 Tobacco Sunburst 5-string bass lets you mix 2 types of sound thanks to its PJ configuration. The Precision pickup provides a denser base. The Jazz bridge pickup adds definition when you need it.

The blend between the 2 pickups allows you to balance the sound according to your playing style. You can go for a rounded sound or something sharper. This means you can cover several styles with a single bass.

The Heritage-3 preamp gives you access to a 3-band EQ with midrange control. The active/passive switch lets you adapt the response according to the situation. Practical for rehearsals and live performances alike.

The alder body maintains good balance with a clean attack. Notes remain well defined throughout the frequency range. The Tobacco Sunburst finish enhances the body lines with a more traditional look.

The 34" scale maintains classic tension for a 5-string bass. The B string is still usable in a modern context. The overall sound remains homogeneous throughout.

The maple neck has a C-shaped profile and feels good in the hand. The ebony fingerboard with rounded edges gives precise contact under the fingers. The 9.5" radius makes it easy to play a variety of styles.

The modern bridge ensures good note retention. The open-gear action ensures stable tuning. The tortoise pickguard adds to the instrument's traditional feel.
