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 left-handed guitar is specially built for players who strum with their left hand and fret with their right. Unlike simply flipping a right-handed guitar, a true left-handed model has reversed components like the nut, bridge, and controls, ensuring proper intonation and playability. They’re often harder to find, with fewer models and colour options available, making the hunt part of the journey for many lefty players. Despite the challenge, playing a guitar that’s built specifically for your dominant hand can make all the difference in comfort, technique, and expression.

Sire is a music company best known for its high-quality yet affordable electric bass and guitar instruments. Originally founded by Larry DiMarzio and later rejuvenated through a collaboration with legendary bassist Marcus Miller, Sire has built a strong reputation for producing instruments that offer professional-level features without the premium price tag. The brand’s rise to prominence came particularly through the Sire Marcus Miller bass line, which gained popularity among both beginners and seasoned musicians for its build quality, versatile tone options, and stylish design.
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.
