Lightweight Power with Sandblasted Precision
The latest J-style bass model, V6, is from Sire’s latest innovation. The 6-series models are focused on being lightweight (under 8 lbs. based on a 4-string variant) and playable while retaining the signature qualities of Sire's best-sellers. Based on our 4-string samples, the weights are 8 lbs 4 oz, 7 lbs 13 oz, and 7 lbs 7 oz. With elevated exterior finish highlights from the natural wood grain of swamp ash, achieved through the sandblasted method, and improved and upgraded parts, the V6 delivers a light yet full-bodied sound that will satisfy even the most discerning players. It comes with DR Dragon Skin+ premium bass strings.
