Fantastic sound, looks and price.
Marcus Miller and Sire have been on a mission for several years to build the best-quality bass at an unbelievable price, making it available to everyone. The result is a line of Marcus Miller bass models that have a fantastic sound and look, and are high quality, but with an extraordinarily low price. Marcus Miller basses are now available to everyone with a hope that more people will be able to play and enjoy the music they love.
Indonesian Mahogany Body and Canadian Hard Maple Neck
The M2 5-string bass guitar's body is made with Indonesian mahogany, which is known for its warm, clear, full-bodied sound. The neck is made with Canadian hard maple for a premium look and feel.
Marcus Miller Heritage-3 Preamp
A top notch 3-band EQ preamp to meet the needs of Marcus Miller’s versatility and to cover various styles of music. The active/passive mode option, together with the humbucker pickup set with individual setting options (single, humbucker and serial-parallel) are the core technology for the best sound quality and tone versatility.
Highest Quality Hard & Clear Paint
The M2 is coated with the highest quality paint that is also used in the V7 and M7 series. This gives the M2 a more elegant look compared to other introductory basses that are applied with low-cost paints.
Rolled Fretboard Edges
What only custom shops can achieve, is now on the Sire 2nd Gen, like this Marcus Miller M2 5-string. These rounded edges will give users a firmer and more natural grasp compared to other typical fretboards.
Modern Feel & Sound, Marcus Blue Humbucker Set
The core component of an electric bass guitar are the magnetic pickups. They detect the vibrations of the strings which are amplified through speakers—much like how a microphone works. Therefore, the quality and tendency of the pickups greatly influence the tone and characteristics of the sound. The big, pole-piece style humbucker pickup sets have been redesigned to be a newly developed soapbar-style humbucker pickup. This unique humbucker style produces strong outputs with punchy and solid mid tones.
