SIRE V3 EQ Secrets Revealed

In This Video of Sire V3 with all original electronics & hardwares setup came from the factory I'm showing you the endless possibilities of Sire Preamp EQuing that exists in Passive & Active numerous combos you could possibly find within the knobs. I'm still amazed at how super flexible the preamp is and more surprisingly is that the preamp exists in the cheapest model, The V3 & M2 series to the premium one, V10! I believe you couldn't find the best deal with this kind of super preamp in $400 range price. The preamp makes my life easier, since I'm not a pedal guy, I just bring the sire bass without any pedals, plugged in directly to the mixer and good to go and compliments about the sound always come!
I know I could find more than 20 sounds & tones out of this bass with every knobs combo but I'll just list most of them in this video at least 20 tone choices including my favorite ones so you could also try to dial them in your Sire basses. You simply could play every music genre there is with this single bass!
I'll do an interactive live streaming Sire EQ Secrets revealed soon so tune in my KZbin channel for the day announcement and join me live!

What I love about the V3 is the incredible low end. I live down there.

[@michaelb.42112]

That SIRE sounds incredible, and looks great, too ! SIRE, to me, is the best Fender type bass on the market for the money. Even regardless of the price, SIRE is amazing. Their attention do detail like rolled frets, etc.

[@alwilder5821]

Yes I have a v3 & v7 they sound Great.

[@ZEGO24x]

You're a great player and this video helped me enormously to understand what my preamp is capable of! Thanks so much - Subbed!

[@RamaNatan]

[@alwilder5821]

[@peppeschettino2427]

Which one do you like more v5 or v3?

[@CharlieBass5]

I like the tone on the last piece

[@RamaNatan]

Simply passive both pick ups V & PT = Full

[@joelemerou3487]

Really useful, terima kasih! And really nice playing! I'm a bit jealous of your color. How did you get this one? :)

[@RamaNatan]

Hey an American guy from CA bought this one! I could send one new if you want shipping $300

[@citylights2765]

your playing is so smooth bro, those slides etc sound like you playing a fretless, how do you achieve that? I'm guessing practice

[@citylights2765]

My fav moment was from 4:45-6:00, so groovy!! loved the riff at 5:43!

[@farisfuad1150]

this is such a great demo! I'm considering to buy either the Sire v3 or the Fender Player series. Which one you reckon I should get? Thanks buddy

[@RamaNatan]

How much is the fender? Value for money V3 is tough to beat

[@farisfuad1150]

@@RamaNatan the lowest price I've seen is about 700 USD. I just found out that the G&L kiloton JB is on sale and it's about the same price as the 5string V3. What do you think? fender player series JB, sire v3 or the G&L Kiloton JB. You gotta help me out man 🤣 I'm really torn rn

[@RamaNatan]

I never tried 2 other basses you mentioned, but I know V3! 😁

[@Flea179]

Love the tone

[@rubensleite9384]

Great Rama ... thank,s ... I have a V3 too, four strings but this pink is crazy ...

[@RamaNatan]

[@surge-tech9381]

Sire v3 or fender squire?

[@domagojoinky8262]

I have 1st gen V7 5 string, ash maple, sunburst finish. It is insane. I would like to add 4th bass to my arsenal that consists of Yamaha trbx505, before mentioned Sire and Stagg b300 sb turned into fretless. I would like to add P7, but I cannot decide should I get V3 or another V7 in alder ebony or something else instead ? Will you do demo of V5 5 string when it comes ?

[@RamaNatan]

I’ll demo V5 4

[@chaewon91]

This video helped a lot!!! Thanx

[@RamaNatan]

😁🙏🏿

[@sambaylin]

where'd you get that pickguard? does just any standard 5st jazz bass pickguard work? I don't like the black pickguard on the models

[@RamaNatan]

From Sire

[@sambaylin]

Rama Nathan thanks, just got an ash v7 in bright metallic red anyways which has a pearl pickguard

[@desilestari530]

Kang itu pick guard nya d ganti ya Saya mau ambil yg pink jga soal nya

[@RamaNatan]

Ya

[@tperry5839]

Tasty like snacks🔥

[@RamaNatan]

Oh yeah

[@omarsosa2219]

I cant hear the difference between the V3 vs V7. If any, I have heard in videos the V3 is more punchy... is this true? I wanted the V7 as is the most popular one, but I think the V3 is the way to go and I can invest the difference in gear. What would you recommend? V3 all the way when there is not much money? What strings do you have on your pink V3?

[@RamaNatan]

Not that much difference to be honest, but better hardware & various wood combo in V7, but the best value is V3. Original Daddario string on V3, I'm not that fond of the original strings on it, doesn't feel sleek in my hands, but the electronics seem to cover up the bad strings :)

[@RamaNatan]

I’ll be Live in KZbin today at 22:00 GMT 7+ zone time join me

[@mountainman8775]

@Omar Sosa I am a very proud v3 owner. The moment I touched it I fell in love and soon ordered the 5-string too. For a lot of genres I prefer its mahogany tones over the v7 - I think it‘s a better studio recording bass than the v7 for many styles even though it‘s cheaper. The slap tones are insane on the v7 though.... it depends what you‘re looking for

[@ladysylviatucker9214]

You look like my son… my grandson. I miss him.

[@RamaNatan]

oh wow

[@lastgoland8298]

Did Sire charge extra for the custom color?

[@RamaNatan]

No private custom color

[@sumanpariyarofficial7363]

Nice colour did you customized or ??

[@RamaNatan]

Yes it's a limited colour batch!

[@omarsosa2219]

Can you please do a comparison between V3 and V7 playing over your songs? Just wondering how they compare in a mix

[@RamaNatan]

actually you could check both videos separately as I play the same song.

[@stewartent2009]

i have a sire and i am trying to learn all the sounds,what dose PT&T mean ?

[@RamaNatan]

Passive Tone & Treble

[@stewartent2009]

@@RamaNatan thank you ok so forgive me but explain the rest cause your sound is awesome and I have the Marcus miller Sire PP SM B

[@RamaNatan]

Well the keys for the Sire preamp is to tame the stacked mid knobs! People sometimes get lost in that and sell the bass coz they feel that it’s muddy etc. the other knobs are just typical knobs most basses have in Sire price range like Volume, Passive Tone, Bass, treble, pan pot. But very few of any basses have the stacked mids that I love coz it gives you such a freedom to dial your tone in every room acoustic situation

[@jmginez7774]

I still can't decide if I should get the V3 or the V5 :(

[@FlatGabe]

If you want to have a lot of options, the V3, if youd like simplicity, the v5. The V5 is passive only, while the V3 has the active preamp, but you can bypass it with the switch and just go full passive no problem

[@jmginez7774]

Yeah my minimum set is having V3 n M2 and all will be good to cover

[@dirkjanklijn9949]

I have a V3 2nd gen myself, it's my second, the first had a faulty neck and couldn't be adjusted propperly, my second one is great, a 4 string, love the color of your bass bye the way.

[@RamaNatan]

You could return the faulty neck to your dealer

[@dirkjanklijn9949]

The dealer swapped it with another complete bass on my condition that I would take it imediatly to my Luthier to give it a propper setup and that I would get my money back if this one was also faulty. This one was excellent, what I didn't like from the dealer was that they put the faulty bass back on the wall to sell it to someone else, needless to say that I told my dealer that it was the last time I've been there. In the future I'll order my basses on line,bring it to my Luthier and if there's something wrong I'll send it back within 30 days and get another one or a refund.
