    Welcome to my 400th video! :D
    Soooo, which one is your favorite?

    • @Heivang
      @Heivang Před rokem +7

      Fantastic. Awesome stuff. I have 6 of these. Personally I like the neck of the P10, but I keep going back to the V5. I might swap the necks so I get the best of both. You should post this on /r/SireGuitars on Reddit btw. :)

    • @MarkMarxonsBassChannel
      @MarkMarxonsBassChannel Před rokem +5

      I love the D5 the best I think. All sound good in your hands tho!

      Sire P10 DX !!! Love that tone!

    • @matthewwalker2100
      @matthewwalker2100 Před rokem +8

      Sire P10 DX because it seems (to my hearing) to always respond to the full spectrum. Others may have their niche, yet with only one to choose, to reach every genre that fellow musicians propose it seems to offer the best service. What do you think David?

  • @W.Ghl76
    @W.Ghl76 Před rokem +49

    No commentary, straight comparisons. Thank you for this video !!!

  • @MichaelCozineSounds
    @MichaelCozineSounds Před rokem +41

    First of all this is incredibly helpful and you did an amazing job skipping the BS and demonstrating the differences in the way these basses sound.
    That being said the V3P sounds DAMN NICE for the price. What a steal.

    • @Iofflight78
      @Iofflight78 Před měsícem

      Yeah I think anyone would realize what a steal that thing is. I've had the V5 5 string in my sites.

    • @aaronl7669
      @aaronl7669 Před 23 dny

      this video helped me decide to get the V3P. It's a great bass. I replaced the tuners with lighter ones and had some fret work done, but other than that it is great.

      Slapped they actually sound quite Warwick thumbish

    • @acegh0st
      @acegh0st Před 4 měsíci

      I actually think the V10 sounds a little too mellow in the high-end for a J-bass, but it’s all personal preference.

  • @solidsneakie
    @solidsneakie Před rokem +12

    V7 Vintage Swamp. That's the one.

    The V7 Vintage with both pup's on has the most growly slap tone. That one would be my pick.

  • @guitarwoman
    @guitarwoman Před 11 měsíci +2

    wow...... this is so extensive.... thank you for the time & effort on this. After listening through, was quite surprised that my favourite overall bass is V3P. Great value.

    @jackieclark8253 Před rokem +6

    Great demo! It’s good to hear more playing and less talking to help get straight to business! 💪🏾
    They all sound great, but the consumer has to consider the strings as well.
    Knowing the character of the strings I use will help me to make a better decision on the bass.
    I have a few V7 basses (1st and 2nd gen standard and vintage),and I got a 5 string V8 back in mid December!
    I’m playing that the most right now!

  • @henryeowens

      It’s about six months since I purchased a P8. Even listening to this video again, comparing it with other models, I’m really happy with it. It’s hard to believe you can get a bass this nice and a great carrying case for that price.

    Very found of the V5R sound btw.

  • @gimmeagig
    @gimmeagig Před 5 měsíci +2

    My favorite is the one I have. A V7 5 string second gen Ash/Maple. I changed the electronics to EMG Js and the BTS 2 band tone circuit and I installed a much better Gotoh brass quick release bridge.It's perfect now.

  • @jacques_lee

    @peterahlberg6512 Před rokem +3

    Very nice, consistant, playing! Makes it easy to pick up the, sometimes subtle, differencies. Love the balanced and "mature" sound of the V10-DX. But for more high energy /agrressive styles of music I think I prefer the V8. Thanks!

    I just ordered a V3 Mohogany... because the more expensive stuff is lacking in specific area's...
    You can absolutely THUMP !!! Thank You !!!

    V3P sounds great to me and is the cheapest! They are all good - very good. Best value manufacturer of quality bases on the market for me and my second bass will be a Marcus Miller Sire, no dobt at all. Very slick well put together video - thank you very much for your effort here.

  • @allthebass
    @allthebass Před rokem +5

    Interesting to hear the strengths and weaknesses in the different styles. That P7 surprised me the most. The V8 initially let me down and wasn’t as exciting as I hoped but it didn’t do anything badly and sat in mix in a very consistent way.

    • @cycleof7s438

    LOL, they all sound great! Sire's are amazing instruments, and they just keep kicking them out. I bought one of the very first gen V7 sires when they first launched, great bass but its a heavy beast. Nice demo Dave! My question is, now that you've had your hands on all of them, which are your top 2 favorites? :)

  • @AnalogKensho
    @AnalogKensho Před rokem +1

    Subscribed - this has to be one of the best and most comprehensive bass comparison videos I’ve seen on CZcams. Amazing work!
    It’s hard for me to pick a favorite, but I’m very into P Basses right now and that D5 sounds amazing to my ear. I was actually surprised by how good the P10/P7 sounded for slap with the bridge/neck solo’d as well.

    @vangelis.gavalakis Před rokem +2

  • @eagletown8977
    @eagletown8977 Před rokem

    I went back to the video and found the P10 very appealing in most respects.
    I own a V7 (bought in July 2015) and an M7 which is probably the best overall bass I’ve ever owned.

    I'm a V7 - V3 guy. I sold a spendy Fender Jazz bass and bought 2 Sires.
    They all sound really good, so good on Sire for an ever expanding line of affordable instruments.
    That D5 does sound really bitchen.

    Bridge slap sounds like quark quark. Both pickups with a little bit more neck is yummy slap.

    I like P7 the most. And strangely enough V3P is one of the better ones, considering the price it is hard not to get one!
    PS: V10 DX wins the slap

    Fantastic comparison, thanks. I'm assuming we only heard the active basses in passive mode, tone and volume fully up? Sire makes amazing basses for the $. My main gigging bass is a V7 vintage ash body/maple neck model. This demo pretty much confirms my overall personal preferences. I don't really like the PJ setup when both PUPSs are engaged and slapped. Never have. And I'm not really digging the M7 tones either. But the beauty of the Sire preamp is you really can dial in a huge variety of sounds. I can get very very close to a P bass with my V7 by dialing in adjustments to the mids in active mode.

      Thanks! All the active basses were actually in active mode but with all controls set flat, tone & volume fully up.
