A "Reissue" that puts the V7 back into the Jazz DNA... in a modern version
The V7 Swamp Ash Reissue retains the fundamentals of the Jazz format while integrating what is expected from a modern bass: smooth playability, full electronics, and refined finishes. The swamp ash and maple duo is a classic for achieving a quick response and clear articulation, while the robust hardware and the New Marcus Heavymass II Bridge contribute to stability and sustain. Result: an instrument capable of shifting from a round, mellow sound to a very snappy attack without losing control.
For which bassists and styles
With its long scale 34" / 864 mm scale length and 24 frets, this bass is particularly aimed at intermediate to advanced bassists who want a 4-string capable of covering a wide repertoire. It excels in funk (precise and punchy slap), jazz (articulation, note placement), pop, and rock (presence and definition in the mix). Its electronics also help quickly adapt your sound to the demands of a live stage or studio session.
The sound
The swamp ash provides firm lows and a very responsive attack, with open highs that enhance clarity. The maple neck and maple fingerboard reinforce the attack and the typical "snap" of modern tones, ideal for dynamic playing and clear attacks. The Marcus Super-J Revolution pickups deliver a detailed Jazz grain, with a nice balance between warmth on the neck side and bite on the bridge side. The Marcus Heritage-3 preamp adds effective EQ (bass, treble) and especially mids with selectable frequency to sculpt the character: scoop for a bright, wide slap or boost mids for a more present fingerstyle. The Volume/Tone and Blender controls allow instant blending of the pickups depending on the track.
Recommended compatible accessories
To respect the 34" / 864 mm scale length, prioritize 4-string long scale bass strings (the original gauge indicated is 45-105). A standard strap and a good quality 6.35 mm jack cable perfectly complement this model for rehearsals and gigs.
