Here at GPAS we believe Sire are setting the standard in the Bass Guitars category. If you are considering the Sire Version 2 Marcus Miller V5 Alder 4-String Bass in Vintage White, it is currently in stock in the UK at an excellent online price. Products are delivered quickly across the UK, Europe and beyond, so you can shop with confidence wherever you are.

Drawing upon the iconic J-style bass, Sire's utilitarian V5 model has plenty of classic character with its distinctive offset body shape and solid construction — featuring two single-coil pickups for a wide tonal palette.

Further noteworthy appointments include a rock-solid roasted Maple neck with a rolled-edge fingerboard, medium-sized frets, open-gear tuners and a genuine bone nut. Available at a fantastic price-point to boot, like all Sire instruments, the V5 is a versatile bass that perfectly blends traditional allure with modern refinement.

Balanced Alder Body

Sire's V5 model boasts a North American Alder body that guarantees a tight, neutral sound with bundles of upper mid-range projection — serving as the perfect tonal foundation for the punchy pickup pairing. A generous belly-cut allows the instrument to rest comfortably against you in standing or sitting positions, making the V5 a practical stage or studio workhorse.

Roasted Maple Neck

Many high-end instruments come fitted with roasted Maple necks, yet Sire has somehow managed to fit its affordable V5 with one — providing you with a truly premium look. "Roasting" is a process that is used to remove all of the natural moisture retained by a tonewood, which ultimately darkens the material and makes it far less vulnerable to warping when exposed to varying climates. This means that the V5's neck is incredibly stable — vastly improving tuning stability.

Peerless Playability

A C-shaped neck profile gives both contemporary and old-school bassists an addictive feel, while the rolled fingerboard edges enhance playability for an extremely smooth fretting experience.

Marcus Vintage-J Revolution Pickups

Two 'Marcus Vintage-J Revolution' single-coils give the V5 a pronounced sonic character; capturing that legendary Jazz voice. Crisp and articulate, these highly-versatile pickups reward all playing styles — particularly finger-style and slap techniques.

High-Quality Hardware

Hardware can be an afterthought for some guitar companies, but Sire has made sure that every detail is executed to perfection with its V5 bass. Sporting a beautifully-machined 'Vintage-S' bridge, this essential component boosts note resonance for a responsive feel and piano-like sustain. A set of Sire 'Premium Open-Gear' tuners put a contemporary spin on this classic-looking bass, engineered to reduce the likelihood of tuning slips.

Bass Guitars

The bass guitar is the backbone of many musical styles, delivering the low-end power that holds everything together. Designed to play deep, resonant notes, it typically has four strings—though five- and six-string models are also popular—and comes in both fretted and fretless versions. Bass guitars can be electric or acoustic, with solid or hollow bodies, and are used across genres from rock and funk to jazz and reggae. In this category, you’ll find a wide selection of bass guitars to suit all levels, from beginner to pro, each built to provide great tone, feel, and reliability.

In addition to bass guitars, Sire also makes electric and acoustic guitars, including collaborations with artists like Larry Carlton, a renowned jazz-fusion guitarist. These guitars are praised for their smooth neck profiles, reliable electronics, and classic aesthetics reminiscent of vintage Fender-style models.
