The signal chain is plugged direct from an Ampeg RB112 onto a Universal Audio Volt 276 in Logic Pro X. Using no plug-ins and a teeny bit of compression from the Volt 276 in play-throughs.
For strings I used on this review: Whatever strings that come stock on the Sire V5.

Where are your bass videos?

[@makumbolindo3566]

I got a v5 24, i wanted to try it, (I bought it used for half a price). The only problem is that the neck pickup is to close to the neck and becomes a bit difficult for slapping, otherwise is a very good quality instrument. Important is that you have to adjust the neck and the bridge for your own needs. The sound is to bright for my taste, and the tone knob is poor switching between bass and treble, not getting a great sound definition.

I don't understand this new trend to bomb the eye with quick camera jump edits. It"s very annoying and doesn't help on anything. It's not an action movie trailer....

[@flogginga_dead_horse4022]

Glad you mentioned the neck dive but on the other hand I just checked all my jazz basses and all of them do

[@sonojon0]

Yea it’s a common thing in Jazz basses

[@billytrance6893]

@@sonojon0 Not on my Fender American Professional II Jazz bass! Great video!

[@richardcautorina5190]

The Can opener Jazz Bass I’d change the pickups Other than that it’s a beautiful bass

[@bassmage4666]

What would you change them to? I'd go noiseless if I could.

[@richardcautorina5190]

@@bassmage4666 absolutely noiseless all the way And so many choices too

[@bassmage4666]

So these basses have traditional j bass singles? How are they with 60 cycle hum? Are they really noisy?

我試過我的 Sire V5 24Frets 5Stings Bass 的頭部不會掉下來。也許是因為我的模型指板木材是白色楓木？所以比例不同？

[@stevenscott9983]

Very nice versatile bass

[@sonojon0]

It sure is!

[@mojito6629]

I just know that this beautiful bass was made in Indonesia. Definitely in my shopping list now LOL, perhaps the 5 strings version (are they made in Indonesia too?)

[@Kakker71]

Yes. They are all made in Indonesia. I´ve got 4 Sire 5 string basses, all killer instruments!

[@LucashtagMusic]

Wow high action...

[@Mike-er2ih]

Probably just straight from shop/factory. Needs proper setup. But I guess some people really enjoy high action.

[@iliasliakos6692]

it sounds abit dark

[@bean9seventy]

think the john coltrane type circle sticker on the scratch plate is great ( should be permanent ) Marcus is a dangerous bass player saw him live in the UK in "1980" dubbed "a show that made Marcus famous before that 1980 gig, Marcus was still basically "an unknown" in fact, the headline main band was a band called " GQ - Make My Dreams a Reality " (with their now classic forgotten hit) the band Marcus was in "Lonnie Liston Smith ,, even influenced the likes of George Michael & yes,, Brit Funk " Light of the World" aka Incognito were the warm up band that day i was there ,, the best track or track i remember aka when everyone wanted to know who the bass player was ,, dropping such a bad bad bass line ,,, Lonnie Liston Smith - Aquarian Cycle who is it ? ,,,, he is called Marcus Miller ,,, Marcus was 21 years old at the time*

[@stevehillock3162]

Cause his strings are dead...

[@user-ew9or6kw8e]

Why STILL Fender has Only 20 Frets to this Day, is ANNOYING !!!!

[@57precision]

Great review. I appreciate what Sire is doing, but man this is one ugly jazz bass.

[@sonojon0]

Lmao it took me a while to come around and like it

[@robertp457]

Looks are subjective, I think it looks great.
