The Korean company Sire has made a lot of fame in a short time. And not just because they have managed to bind none other than Marcus Miller inextricably to them. That's nice, but if the instruments weren't up to scratch, also not very meaningful. And that's exactly where sire "nailed it"; these basses are awesome! At this price point, really a no-brainer. The sound is fat and very recognizable; a feast for the lover of traditional J and P sounds, but at the same time the active basses are modern and very versatile. The design choices (color choice, shape of the headstock) are just as distinctive and the finish is excellent. The P5 is Sire's version of the iconic precision bass. The P5 is passive, has an alder body, maple neck and bound roasted maple fingerboard with the rolled edges that make every Sire so comfortable to play. Another very cool, striking feature that we see on all Sire basses is that the strings can be mounted either body through or bridge through (or go crazy and mix it up!); try that and hear what it does for the sound. And all that for less than 500 euro-peaks! The bass comes without a gig bag or case
