The latter is based on Miller’s favoured jazz-style bridge, and its extra-chunky saddles offer a rich tone with excellent tuning accuracy, sustain and strength. High-End HardwareĪdditional appointments include Sire’s Premium Open Gear tuners and their popular Heavy Mass Standard bridge. This includes a sweepable middle frequency control for finding the instrument's tonal sweet-spot, akin to the flexible EQ you'd find on a high-end mixing console! But even with this sophisticated built-in preamp, the M5’s core sound is unmistakably clear and aggressive. Flexible PreampĬouple the versatile humbucking pickups with Sire’s incredible Heritage-3 preamp system, and you’ve got unprecedented control over your sound. Want to go for more of a traditional, passive pickup sound? No problem, just use the toggle switch to flick between active and passive modes, and use the two additional switches to engage/disengage the front and rear pickups. Marcus Pure Humbucker Advanced active pickups deliver a thick and powerful sound, projecting plenty of low-end, a meaty mid-range and articulate highs. Sire basses are known for emitting sounds that far outweigh their modest price-points, and the M5 is no exception. Thanks to the largely Maple neck and smooth Ebony fingerboard, you can expect crisp and immediate tones with plenty of sustain to boot. This layered design increases stability and makes the neck far less susceptible to warping, which is especially important for a bass that has so much string tension. The M5's C-shaped neck is made from 5 pieces of wood, predominantly Maple. The M5's tonal response is therefore very balanced and able to sit perfectly in any live or studio mix. Used on some of the earliest electric guitars and basses on the market, you can expect a fairly neutral tone with slightly accentuated upper mids and noticeable low-end warmth. The foundation of the Sire M5 bass is its Swamp Ash body.
