Marcus Miller - V3 2nd Generation 5 Cordes Sonic Blue

The Sire Marcus Miller V3 2nd Generation 5-string in Sonic Blue immediately makes its mark with its high-resolution clarity of sound, which the mahogany body sculpts into a deep organic warmth - the bass thickens without mud, the treble breathes without harshness. The mahogany body absorbs parasitic vibrations and returns a dense, coherent sound image across all five strings, including the low B string, which retains all its definition. The J-Revolution pickups with Heavy Formvar magnetic wire, made in the USA, capture a wide spectrum with open dynamics: each attack of the thumb or pick reproduces its own grain, without artificial compression.

The hard Canadian maple neck responds firmly under the fingers, anchoring the playing in a stability that the 864 mm scale amplifies in the higher positions. The rosewood fingerboard with rounded Edgeless™ edges eliminates resistance at the end of the neck: lateral movements in slap or legato play glide smoothly. The 46 mm natural bone nut distributes the five strings with a width that leaves space between the fingers, an immediate advantage for bassists who work in technical fingerstyle.

The three-band Heritage-3 preamp, with its frequency-selective dual-midrange potentiometer, cuts surgical EQ curves without stripping the signal of its natural sound. The mini active/passive switch transforms the instrument into two distinct characters depending on stage requirements. The Marcus Standard Bass Bridge with through-body string passage anchors every note in dense sustain. The whole package comes with a gig bag and strap - so you can play it right out of the box.
