Hi!

Anyone else noticed these basses?

You can get a lefty in 4 or 5 string version. I find it super interesting. Classic clean looks with modern upgrades. Simple layout which I prefer (vol,vol,tone). EMG electronics and decent hardware for example babicz bridge (no mods needed then I guess to make it better).

I have been GASing for a 5 string sire p bass but this one is more interesting to me despite of the price difference (Sire P7 770$ on their website). I really like the matching headstock with all the tuners lined etc. I also find the stackedknobsfiddlethingyonboardpreamp Sire basses a bit intimidating.

Should’ve used the search. Sorry about that. Anyone bought or tried one? :)
