A Modernized "P-Bass" in Sire's P Series
The P10dx embodies the DNA of Sire's P series: a foundation inspired by the Precision format, designed for bassists seeking the presence and mid-low punch typical of this classic, while enjoying a more contemporary approach. The P/J configuration and active/passive electronics clearly expand the sonic spectrum without losing the essentials: a clear attack, body, and solid foundation within the band.
For Which Bassists and Styles
Designed for intermediate to advanced bassists, the Marcus Miller P10dx is ideal if you play in various contexts and want an instrument capable of covering everything: rehearsals, stage, studio. It excels in funk, soul, pop, rock, and gospel, thanks to its ability to switch from a precise, snappy sound to a thicker tone by finely adjusting the mids and pickup blend.
The Sound
The alder body provides a natural balance with present mid-lows, perfect for supporting the groove without overwhelming the spectrum. The solid flamed maple top adds clarity and better definition in the attack, useful for pick playing or articulated runs. The Marcus Premium PJ Revolution set combines a dense, authoritative low end on the P pickup side, and a more "vintage" precision by adding the J pickup, handy for better note separation and increased presence. The Marcus Heritage-3 preamp, with adjustable mid frequency, allows you to sculpt exactly the area that makes the bass "speak," while maintaining good sustain and great versatility, both active and passive.
