Great bang for buck!

A lovely bass, looks great, very nice to play, sounds great and is versatile with both p and j pickups. It's very light also which is why I needed a new bass but very pleased with it would def recommend.

Brilliant instrument!

Moving to short scale to help my ageing left (fretting) hand. Got in on the basis of reviews, and I’m not disappointed. Super build quality - the neck is a dream to play.

Read some comments about neck dive - I’ve had no problems. Note sure about the round wounds that it came with, but I prefer flats, and have put a set of La Bells on it.

Can’t believe how good for the price. Playing inspires me to play better. Really not just a bass for people with small hands or beginners!

Great short scale bass

Build quality is excellent. Neck feels great!

Head is bit heavy due to heavy tuners... I can change this, so no problem.

Pick up is little weak, but the sound is clean... I can change this, so no problem.

Everything else is better than more expensive basses/guitars that I have owned.

Marcus Miller Sire bass surprised me with very good quality at a low price.

I bought another Marcus Miller P5 bass after I bought this one. Same issues as above, but great overall.
