Wrote the following about Sire Marcus Miller V3 Tobacco Sunburst 4-string bass guitar

Achetée chez Bax il y a quinze jours. Après avoir été le propriétaire de la V7 qui m'avait convaincu, j'ai voulu me rendre compte de ce pouvait être sa petite sur. Pas déçu quant à la qualité de fabrication mais pas fan du son. Tout en fait ressemble à la V7 (même usine à gaz en actif) mais on s'éloigne de ce que l'on peut attendre des sonorités et du grain JB. Les micros ne sont pas les mêmes que sur V7, même si le préampli est identique. Alors certains adoreront, pour ma part moins. J'ai d'autre part été gêne par un écartement des cordes de 19 qui aura la préférence chez les fans de slap. Je n'ai pas pu trouver un son qui me convienne parfaitement,aussi bien en passif qu'en actif,pas grave c'était pour moi une deuxième basse, alors je l'ai revendue. Ceci dit le rapport qualité/prix est bon si l'on tient compte de la fabrication, mais elle est beaucoup moins enthousiasmante que la V7. Mais pour 275 euros active/passive on ne peut pas non plus demander l'impossible. En conclusion si vous êtes addict comme moi au grain JB, vous pourriez être un peu déçus.
