With its compact size, the Sire Marcus Miller U5 Alder-4 Mint bass is easy to pick up. The 30" scale reduces string tension. This makes it easier to play, especially for smaller hands or longer sessions.

The low weight makes the instrument comfortable to carry. The position remains natural, whether you're sitting or standing. You'll be able to play for longer without discomfort.

The PJ configuration offers a range of sound characteristics. The neck pickup gives a rounder sound. The bridge pickup provides greater precision.

Each pickup has its own volume to control the mix. The overall tone can be adjusted. The settings are simple and effective.

The passive circuit keeps the signal direct. The sound reacts immediately to the attack. This gives you more control over your playing.

The alder body provides a balance between warmth and clarity. Notes remain defined throughout the entire range. Suitable for a variety of styles.

The maple neck with C-profile is comfortable to play. The maple fingerboard with rounded edges improves contact under the fingers. Playing remains fluid throughout.

The 9.5" radius makes it easy to move around. You can move from one position to another without unnecessary effort. This helps to keep your playing relaxed.

The 20 mm spacing gives good right-hand control. The vintage-style bridge helps maintain sustain. The tuning mechanism remains stable.

Finally, the Mint finish adds a soft, original colour!
