Essentials to Know About the Sire Marcus Miller M7 Swamp Ash-5 NT EN Bass Guitar
- Modern 5-string bass with a 35" / 889 mm scale length: firmer tension and better-defined lows, ideal for low tunings and precise playing.
- Swamp ash body and ebony fingerboard: sharp attack, clear tone, and excellent balance for fingerstyle and slap playing.
- Premium Marcus electronics: Marcus Pure-H Revolution Set pickups + Marcus Heritage-3 preamp with parametric mid control.
- Total versatility thanks to the Active / Passive mini toggle and a pickup mix control (Pickup Blender).
An M7 Designed for Performance, at the Heart of the "Modern Bass" Approach
With its "New modern bass" format, the M7 Swamp Ash-5 fits the spirit of contemporary basses aimed at stage and studio use: modern ergonomics, easy access to 24 frets, and comprehensive electronics for quick tone shaping. The Natural finish highlights the swamp ash grain and emphasizes the "pro instrument" DNA of the series.
For Which Bassist and Styles?
This bass is especially suited for intermediate to advanced bassists who want a precise and expressive 5-string capable of covering a wide repertoire. It excels in funk (snappy slap), fusion (definition and dynamics), pop, and modern rock, while remaining very comfortable with rounder tones in passive mode. The 35" / 889 mm scale length will appeal to those seeking a well-defined low B string.
Tone
The swamp ash provides a quick response, solid lows, and open highs, while the ebony fingerboard enhances precision and articulation, particularly appreciated on a 5-string. The Marcus Pure-H Revolution pickup set delivers a wide range, with clear lows and a strong presence in the mix. The Marcus Heritage-3 preamp offers full EQ with mid control and frequency adjustment, facilitating the transition from a warm, vintage sound to a more modern, punchy tone. The Active / Passive mini toggle allows instant character adjustment: natural and organic in passive, sharper and more sculptable in active.
