Marcus Miller - V5 Alder-5 Fretless Natural

The Sire Marcus Miller V5 Alder-5 Natural bass gives you access to a wider register with a low B string. You can play lower without changing your usual positions. Playing without frets requires more precise finger placement.

The passive circuit transmits a direct signal. Your attack is immediately felt in the sound. You retain total control over the sound.

The alder body provides a good balance between warmth and clarity. The bass remains clean and defined. Notes remain legible along the entire length of the neck.

The 2 single-coil J-type pickups produce an open sound. You can adjust your sound with the volumes of each pickup. The neck pickup adds roundness, while the bridge adds precision.

The settings are simple. You have a volume for each pickup and a general tone. Adjustments are made quickly as you play.

The torrefied maple neck remains stable over time. The C-profile feels great in the hand. You can easily find your bearings despite the width of the neck.

The fretless fingerboard with rounded edges is easy to move. Direct contact with the string. Glides become more natural.

The 46 mm nut leaves plenty of space between the strings. The 18 mm spacing helps to maintain precision in the right hand. You can play more cleanly, even on fast passages.

The vintage-style bridge helps to hold the notes. The open action keeps the tuning stable. The whole set remains reliable over time.

The Natural finish enhances the wood without adding to the effect. You've got an instrument that's simple, effective and fun to play!
