Built around a solid mahogany body and a pair of Sire Basic J single coil pickups, the V1 delivers familiar punchy Jazz bass sounds with a warm, rounded low end. A fully passive control layout keeps things simple and responsive, while quality touches like a real bone nut, rosewood fingerboard and open gear tuners give the instrument a premium feel far beyond its price.

Whether you are learning your first lines, stepping up to your first gigging bass or adding a dependable backup to your collection, the Sire V1 in Antique White offers a slick playing experience and versatile tones in a stylish, stage ready finish.

Comfortable Marcus Miller Jazz Style Body

The V1 uses Sire’s Marcus Miller Jazz shape, giving you a familiar offset body that sits comfortably whether you are standing or seated. The contours help the bass hug your body, reducing fatigue over long sets and making it easier to maintain good technique.

Smooth Edgeless Rosewood Fingerboard

Sire’s Edgeless rolled fretboard edges are a standout feature at this price. The rosewood fingerboard feels broken in straight out of the box, with no sharp fret ends to catch your hand. This makes position shifts smoother and more controlled, which is especially helpful for developing players.

Classic Passive J Bass Electronics

A pair of Sire Basic J pickups and a traditional passive control layout put a wide range of usable tones at your fingertips. Independent volume controls for each pickup plus a master tone knob let you blend from deep, neck heavy warmth to tight, bridge focused bite without fuss.

Reliable Hardware For Everyday Use

The Sire Basic Bass Bridge, open gear tuners and chrome hardware are designed to keep the V1 stable and ready to play. Tuning holds well, intonation is easy to dial in, and the three ply black pickguard completes the classic look of the Antique White finish.

FEATURES

• Ultra Affordable With Premium Feel - Despite its accessible price, the V1 carries Sire’s trademark smooth neck feel and rolled fretboard edges, giving you the comfort and playability usually found on far more expensive instruments.
• Mahogany Body With Marcus Miller Jazz Shape - The mahogany body provides a warm, full foundation while the familiar Jazz style shape offers excellent ergonomics, making long rehearsals and gigs more comfortable.
