Marcus Miller - V7 Vintage 2nd Generation Alder 4 Cordes FL Tobacco Sunburst

Sire and Marcus Miller have anchored the V7 Vintage 2nd Generation FL in the physical memory of the '70s: close-set bridge pickups in period spacing, this bridgeward positioning hardens the attack, focuses the fundamental and gives fretless playing that characteristic bite - halfway between slap and flowing legato. The 184.15mm radius Edgeless™ hard maple fingerboard eliminates edge ridges for seamless thumb rest along the entire length of the neck; Black Block markings and 1-ply black binding orient the hand without partition. 863.6 mm pitch, C-shaped neck profile, 38 mm natural bone nut.
The full North American alder body dries the spectrum with balance - neither the heaviness of mahogany nor the dryness of ash. The Marcus Miller Vintage-S bridge anchors the original DR Dragon Skin DBQ-45 strings with a firmness that amplifies the natural sustain of alder. The Premium Open-Gear tuners in chrome hardware, the 4-screw steel plate neck binding and the black/white/black 3-ply pickguard complete the vintage aesthetic without structural concessions.
The Marcus Heritage-3 three-band preamp - treble, midrange with dual frequency potentiometer, bass - changes the proposition according to the room. The mini active/passive switch switches in a single movement to a pure signal in the event of drum failure on stage. Volume/tone, mic balance, Marcus Vintage-J Revolution Set sensors: the entire circuit responds to the Jazz logic of the control board without visual overload. Tobacco Sunburst colour. Shiny neck finish.
