Product Description
Sire Marcus Miller V7 New Gen 5-String
The First Sire J-Style, Updated with New Gen Refinements
The Sire V7 New Gen refines a modern J-style classic with improved playability, balance, and clearer, more responsive tone. Thoughtful New Gen updates deliver greater consistency, streamlined control, and expanded options, making it a more dependable and versatile choice for today’s players.

NEW GEN NECK SYSTEM & IMPROVED INSTRUMENT BALANCE
The V7 New Gen features a revised neck profile with Edgeless™ and Stainless steel frets for improved playability and durability, complemented by lightweight Aluminum tuners for better balance and reduced neck dive, plus Luminlay side dots for enhanced stage visibility.

UPDATED ELECTRONICS ARCHITECTURE & PICKUP TUNING
Configured with newly voiced Marcus Super-J Revolution pickups and a streamlined Heritage-3 preamp, the V7 New Gen delivers enhanced clarity, note separation, and dynamic response while retaining mid-frequency control and push/pull active–passive tonal flexibility.

EXPANDED VARIANTS WITH IMPROVED WEIGHT CONSISTENCY
The New Gen lineup introduces roasted Maple neck options and expanded finish and fingerboard combinations, while tighter weight consistency across production improves predictability and addresses prior variability concerns.
