Sire Marcus Miller M7-6 6-String Electric Bass Guitar Transparent Black

Sire M7-6ST Electric Bass Guitar – Transparent Black

The Sire M7-6ST Transparent Black is a professional 6-string electric bass designed for modern bassists who need extended range, advanced tonal control, and high-end build quality. Developed in collaboration with Marcus Miller, this instrument is built for versatility across studio recording, live performance, jazz, funk, fusion, and contemporary music styles.

With its striking Transparent Black finish, the flamed maple top is visually revealed beneath the gloss, giving it a premium and modern stage-ready appearance while maintaining a highly functional, performance-driven design.

Extended Range for Modern Bass Performance

The 6-string configuration expands the instrument’s range both upward and downward, giving players access to deep low-end notes and melodic upper register lines. This makes it especially useful for chordal playing, solo bass work, and complex harmonic arrangements.

The 35-inch scale length enhances string tension, improving clarity and articulation—especially on the low B and high C strings.

Powerful Electronics and Tonal Control

The Heritage-3 preamp system provides extensive tonal shaping through a 3-band EQ combined with mid-frequency control. This allows bassists to sculpt everything from clean, articulate tones to aggressive, punchy low-end textures.

The pickup configuration offers multiple switching modes, enabling single-coil clarity, humbucking power, and parallel/series flexibility for a wide sonic palette.

Stable Neck Design for High-Performance Playing

The 5-piece neck construction significantly increases stability under the high tension of a 6-string setup. This reduces warping and improves long-term reliability, while also enhancing sustain and note clarity across the fretboard.

The C-shaped neck profile and rolled fretboard edges improve comfort, making extended playing sessions smoother and less fatiguing.

Professional Build and Modern Aesthetic

With its alder body topped with flamed maple, the M7-6ST combines balanced tonal response with visual appeal. The transparent finish highlights the wood grain, giving it a premium boutique-style appearance suitable for stage and studio environments.

Its hardware is designed for stability and precision, including a heavy-mass bridge and die-cast tuning machines for reliable tuning performance.
