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.
A transparent guitar finish showcases the natural beauty of the wood by using a clear or lightly tinted coating that lets the grain and texture shine through. This type of finish highlights the craftsmanship and quality of the tonewood, giving each instrument a unique look since no two pieces of wood are exactly alike. Transparent finishes can range from glossy and polished to matte and satin, offering both aesthetic appeal and protection without hiding the guitar’s character. It’s a favourite among players who appreciate classic, organic style and want their guitar to speak visually as well as sonically.

Sire is a music company best known for its high-quality yet affordable electric bass and guitar instruments.

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. Sire’s focus on player comfort, quality components, and value has made it a go-to brand for those seeking boutique-style instruments without the boutique price, helping to democratise access to great gear.
