Sire Marcus Miller V3P 5-String Red Satin 5-String Electric Bass Guitar

General

The Sire Marcus Miller V3P 5-String is an excellent choice for 5-string bassists looking for a reliable and affordable passive bass with a string to spare. This V3 series model features traditional J-style styling and combines solid construction with carefully selected woods. The clear yet highly effective passive electronics allow you to effortlessly adjust your bass tone with the separate volume controls for each of the two elements and a single tone knob.
