The Sire M2+ 5/TBK is a powerful and versatile 5-string bass from the M2 2nd Gen Series, designed for bassists seeking professional performance in an accessible instrument. This Transparent Black version features a mahogany body for a full, warm tone, and a Canadian hard maple neck for stability and a comfortable feel. The Edgeless™ fingerboard with beveled edges contributes to playing comfort during longer sessions.
The combination of the Marcus Blue humbuckers and the Heritage-3 preamp with midrange control offers a wide range of modern tones. Thanks to the active/passive switch, 3-band EQ, and pickup blender, you can tailor your sound precisely to your style. The Marcus Miller standard bridge with body-thru capability enhances sustain and resonance. This makes the M2+ 5/TBK an excellent choice for both beginning and advanced bassists.
