@@nigelevans3227 Amazing! Think Amdertons owe me some money then! 😝

All the basses sound incredible, and it's great fun watching Nathan and Lee.

Ordered one of the green P5s after I saw this. Arrived from you today. Thanks Andertons! I haven't bought a new bass in years, but fell in love with the Sire range after I tried one at a local blues jam night. Amazing quality.

Love to see a sire p5 vs Fender player series precision comparison. These sound awesome!

This is great fun. I really like your playing and your positive attitude. Thanks a million for all the great videos

I own fretless Marcus Miller bass, this is an incredible instrument with such a rich tone. Simply amazing

The d5 with tone all the way down is something special 😃

I picked up a used V7 5 string a few weeks ago. 100% worth it. These are fantastic instruments.

Damn, that D5 looks and sounds gorgeous. "Every little thing it does is magic." Love it. Those baked necks are truly things of beauty!

Been waiting for this ages. Was thinking of pre-ordering the p5 but really wanted to see a review first.

Excellent review from two superb musicians - thank you

Lee's playing never ceases to amaze me

Great reviews....but the intro and outro jams are the best! I can listen to you guys play all day!!

OMG! that intro jam is brutal.

Appreciate the episode and really enjoyed the intro!

Awesome lead in JAM!!!! Yummy selection of basses too......😊

the V5 is amazing, the color, the sound

Lovely..A new fix of All about the Bass..I have the chippy ordered 😁

Loving these videos. Seeing all these Sire Bass videos has determined what my next Bass (yes, I'm lefthanded) is going to be. Now I just need to decide between V5 and P5; or see what's available at the time! lol

Fantastic playing Gang.

Just ordered a V5 in Tobacco Sunburst. Can't wait to get it

Superb demo as usual

As someone who owns almost exclusively tuxedo guitars and basses, I *absolutely* want a D5 in full bore halloween orange and black.

Nathan and Lee are the best. Love the play ins and outs especially.

I love that Sea Foam P5. The contrast to the roasted maple neck and the classic P bass tones. Heaven.

@Caprise - Music it's mild green because legally they aren't allowed to call it seafoam green. Sonic blue is much more blue.

Nathan is a proper lunatic, in addition to being an amazing musician. I'm not even a bass player, and "All About The Bass" are my favorite Anderton's videos.

You two make me sick your both such good bassist’s and I’m crap, we need more of you both on KZread!

I think the D stands for Dusty.... as in Hill

Every music store I go to doesn't have them in stock. Buying a bass unseen is risky business for me. There's always some defect limitation. I wouldn't want to order a bass that takes a while to get. You guys are always fun to listen in your demos.

I'd be interested to hear the D5 head-to-head with the V5 bridge pickup.

Fiesta and Razzle? Blimey, sweet youthful memory!

The D stands for “Doesn’t matter, we got another all about the bass video!!!” You guys are AWESOME!!!!!! Am I the only one that prefers Nathan’s playing over Marks (no disrespect intended), and I can watch Lee and Nathan talk and play bass all day. Cheers guys

Nice jam 🍺

great basses for the ducats. i wish they had kept the vintage small frets tho. the mediums are kinda big @ .095 x .051

Really like the look of the red p5

Yhanks guys! are these basses then newly produced? Or are those produced in 2018 as the "second generation"?

Nathan and Lee love it.

My first bass after a 20 year hiatus was a lefty Sire V7 back in 2016 but it had the original 7.5" radius, which after I played a flatter radius fretboard I realized was the issue. It sounded great but I needed a flatter fretboard. I'll have to try the modern series if I can find a lefty somewhere to try. I found that I really like Schecter basses for the playing experience.

@@HollywoodTheTradeKing the newer non vintage ones have 9.5 radii i think now. If you get the 'vintage' ones i think they still have the 7.5. it is a real problem for jazz basses, especially 5ers as the radius doesnt even closely match the pickup, and so you either have a terrible setup that has balanced output or you just accept that your top and bottom strings are going to be way louder than the middle strings

Friggin beautiful!!!

I want a D5, but can't find one at a US dealer. I see "2nd generation" stickers on all but the D5. Did Sire fix the noise/electronics problems with the original D5? How complex is it to order equipment from Anderton's for those of us in the US? Thanks.

Forever a Jazz guy but that D-Bass was singing!!!

Love these sessions. And I don't even play bass.

The P5 sounds amazing and the D5 looks amazing 😂

Im really worried that the v5 that i ordered have a darker roasted fretboard and head Since im ordering the natural after seeing one with almost matching color my colleague have, but the youtube reviews looks inconsistent in the fretboard color

Interesting that the bridge on the D5 here is the traditional Sire bridge, but the website and my personal D5 had no string thru body and brass saddles.

I watch another video with Lee explaining some of it but it a little over noggin. I do see a total of E422.50

Very cool "Maiden Voyage' opening jam. Maiden Voyage was called at my local jam night a few years ago and the drummer said "I hate that tune." I know this because it just happened that the place went quiet exactly as he uttered those words. Awkward...

Top presenters.

now play running in the family

Nathan and Lee are the best. If I see a video with them in it, it's an automatic click. Don't even bother with a title.

For my personal taste, D5 sounds much better than P5. I'm surprised!!

The roasted a bit too dark but still nice

you shall see the neck of my old 61 P-bass that i roasted myself in the oven. Thats what i call call dark.

Is it only me who doesn't like this super high gloss necks ? I played a p5 FL and even though it sounded ok I didn't like the feel on the neck

Now I feel don't have that much desperate reason to have Fender American series basses

If I were starting over with both guitars and basses, I’d be hard-pressed not to go with Sire.

Damn it, I want all five..... what's wrong with me? Please spare me the answer...... rooled...... ohhh!

Trim a bit off the end of those head stocks and they’d look amazing.

ppl in the chat. what bass would you recommend to someone that is a complete noob who wants to learn but wants something that sounds good and will last

@ryusato5594

2 жыл бұрын

You should check out this video you're commenting on lol. Joking aside, if my v7 was my first bass i probably wouldnt have my other 2 (ibanez sr300 and peavey millenium) for any reason other than that they're nice to look at. That said, i personally think the d series would be best for a complete beginner to learn on as there are much fewer controls to distract you while the active v or p series (or the m series not mentioned in this video) would be best for playing with different sounds. While i do choose my sire over my ibanez, it is worth mentioning that the neck on the ibanez is my favorite of my 3 basses. Really slim and easy on my short, fat fingers and would def recommend to beginners. Tough to choose with all the choices out there. Whatever you go with, make sure it looks good to you. An awesome looking instrument will inspire you to pick it up more often. A boring looking one will likely sit there once the initial excitement of having it at all wears off and your progress plateaus.

Any of these three types of basses would be great for a beginner. The V5 (the fender jazz bass style) will be most versatile due to its two pickup configuration, but great music has been made by people playing basses similar to all three of these. I haven’t played a Sire but they’ve gained a strong reputation as a good value. From personal experience I recommend beginners take a look at the G&L brand Tribute series line of basses. I have a G&L Tribute JB bass that costs about $500US and is a great sounding, looking, and playing bass that I’d play anywhere, anytime.

Sting's dead-name is Gordon? Did you guys just deadname Sting? 🤣🤣

You will not find a better bass at this price point. I sold my made in usa fender Pbass after I purchased the sire p5r…

the original P bass style on the right is out of tune :)

Ridiculous quality for the price. But one of the ugliest headstocks in the biz 😬

what is the bass beauty charts: No. 1 Sadowsky, No. 2 Rickenbacker , No. 3 Spector/warwick, No. 4 Stingray, No. 5: Fender P-bass and J-bass, The Telebass is not in my top 10...

I wonder who this review is made for? The guy on the left acts half his age and is insufferable, plus he doesn't know what he's playing; and the guy on the right lied when he said that the D5 has through-body. Yeah, they can play, that's fine, but everything else in just annoying. Maybe worth changing it? You are a big international store.... (sorry everyone, mini rant here)
