Sire Marcus Miller Z7 4 String Electric Bass, Antique White

Sire Marcus Miller Z7 4 String Electric Bass, Antique White

Equipped with a Stinging J/MM Pickup Combo

The Sire Marcus Miller Z7 represents a high-performance spin on arguably the most iconic bass of the late 1970s, favored among slappers, fingerstyle players, and rockers alike. First up, the alder body’s Premium MM-style bridge, oval pickguard, swooping control plate, and treble-tinged humbucking Premium MM pickup shine with a stinging sheen. But this bass is no mere clone — a neck-position Premium Split Jazz pickup unlocks warm, rich, and well-defined single-coil-style thump, further elevated with a flexible Marcus Heritage-3 active preamp. You also get a comfortable “C”-shaped ebony-on-maple neck, and it’s all finished off with Sire’s sleek Edgeless fret-edge treatment and 22 medium-jumbo stainless steel frets. Inspired by the past but equipped with a choice set of modern upgrades, the immensely versatile Sire Marcus Miller Z7 represents an all-encompassing sonic solution for genre-hopping bassists on the stage or in the studio.

Style straight out of the late 1970s
Based on one of the most iconic bass guitars of the 1970s, the Sire Marcus Miller Z7’s alder body provides unfettered access to the upper frets and a comfortably balanced double-cut composition. From the oval-shaped pickguard to the swooping metal control plate, the Z7 wears its inspiration with pride — right down to the oversized bridge-position humbucker. It’s all finished off with a rounded forearm contour that Sweetwater bassists love for its ability to fight off fatigue during marathon gigs and sessions. Whether you’re picking up the bass for the very first time or a longtime touring veteran, choosing a bass that feels comfortable in your hand is imperative. Luckily, the Sire Marcus Miller Z7 boasts a classic “C” profile maple neck, a classic among both guitarists and bassists revered for its ability to accommodate players of all styles and backgrounds. An ebony fingerboard studded with stainless steel medium-jumbo frets sits atop the neck. Best of all, the Z7’s neck is finished with Sire’s Edgeless rolled fingerboard edge treatment for a sleek and supple feel from the first fret to the 22nd.

Heritage-3 preamp system unlocks unlimited sonic potential
No matter what styles of music you play, you'll definitely appreciate the Marcus Miller Z7's amazing tonal range. It's equipped with a Heritage-3 active/passive preamp system, allowing you to get as surgical with your tone as you like. Leave it in passive mode and you'll have control over master volume and master tone, as well as a pickup blend control for dialing in the perfect balance of thump and bark. Engage active mode and you're rewarded with three bands of EQ, with a sweepable midrange that makes it easy to cement your place in the mix.
