A "flagship" model: the V7 at the heart of the New Gen range
Presented as the brand's flagship model, the V7 embodies the "Jazz Type" spirit dear to Marcus Miller: a responsive, expressive bass crafted for nuanced playing. This V7 Alder-5 New Gen version emphasizes classic luthiery (alder and maple) combined with a modern platform (Marcus Heritage-3 preamp, mid-frequency control, Marcus Miller Modern-S bridge). The result: a versatile 5-string capable of covering both traditional passive tones and more powerful, precise active colors.
