They all sound excellent. These guys are killing it. I am excited to get mine soon.

Nothing like waking up to some killer basses and a fresh cup of Lee laying down that Intro groove! Thanks Andertons’ for another great video!!

It's a great bass but sire and dealers need to up their inspection before they ship. My V10DX arrived with many imperfections on the Hipshot hardware and the input jack had one screw that will not grip because the would is stripped or drilled too large. At $1,800 for the 5 string, they could do better.

Lee, your the Cat's Meow! Your grooves are always uplifting. Great test drives as always,

Just ordered the v5r from you guys in the amazing green colour. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

Every sire I’ve played has been awesome. I’ve kept two and only sold my early first gen v7 because it was a bit of a boat anchor. My P5 and U5 are very nice basses, So lovely to play

Love my orange V3 I bought about a year ago -- amazing amount of instrument for the money. Edit: Great playing from Lee, as ever.

Love your clean playing

Finally just received my left handed P5 from Sire after a 5 month wait. Love it!

Gorgeous jam! That's really inspired me

sire are killing it on alll guitar fronts! amazing quality and value

Always a hoot. Merry Christmas, Lee.

Great demo as usual Lee, already have a Marcus Miller from you guys, A1 bass. Sire are quality.

Love sire basses! Incredible value for money! I have the straight p5 with the GZR EMG pickup mod, but I must admit, the p5r is tempting me, especially in that natural finish. Just a minor comment on the video quality in general though. Love the presenter and would love to see more of him, but his voice seems to be compressed to the point of distortion. Maybe something to look at in future

Great video. All of these Sires produce some fantastic tones, I really enjoyed the P8 and the V8. That P8 sounded heavy.

Love the red and black..wow..id also want the green but id want the green bass with that brown neck from the white bass...would look awesome together.

Funky intro, love it!

Gorgeous stuff

Killer playing!!

Just subbed.. glad i found you guys

I don't even want a jazz bass but I love that redder than red finish so much haha, f**king dope

I own two Sire Basses they are killer basses and untouchable on value for me,some will struggle to overcome the snobbery thing but they’re missing out,Fender make some beautiful basses but pound for pound they’re not even close to these.❤

I bought two....Cool basses at first.... Until the pre amps went out in both!! Then the knobs broke on one...Couldn't get any support from Sire...What's the odds of buying TWO lemons?? Sold 'em for a Bass Mods....Done with Sire.

I’m a six string lad but lee makes me love these videos and want to try bass. Think I’ll have to pick up a bass at some stage

Just bought a V7 5 string in sunburst. So versitile. So many options. Glad i decided to try and buy a Sire

Absolutely love my Marcus Miller PJ Bass. Such a tonal monster

I enjoyed this solo effort Lee. More earnest. More serious. Less distracting.

These basses are pretty awesome!

I love my p7 but man, those 10dx basses look absolutely gorgeous

The video / refresh rate on this is driving me crazy when it’s zoomed in. Great video either way

Silly Europeans with their weird refresh rates.

Great video! Please get Nathan back there with you! I miss the back and forth between you 2!

I NEED that v5R …. Like … yesterday and not tomorrow!

Just recieved my V5. Its really really good

Bridge in the V10/P10 looks to be a Hipshot Kickass.

Sire make absolutely beautiful instruments. I have the all maple 5string Jazz. I own vintage fenders (P& J) Spector, Sandberg, Vintage Gibson's, Rickenbackers Lakeland, to name a few. The sure competes with all top brands

I’m so impressed with these basses!!! The P5R, V5R, and P8 are fantastic!!!!

Yes! I've been waiting for this video! Really contemplating adding one of the P5R's to my arsenal and Lee is the best!!!

Cool vid, great bass’s. I have the V10, do you think it’s worth me part exing v10 and upgrading to v10dx? Cost me about a grand to change so a fair chunk of wonga.

Helle there Excellent demo Which model is the lightest ? Thanks for sharing S.V

They look class 👌

Sire makes great basses. I have a 5 string V7 from the 1st generation, ash-maple, sunburst. I would like to add a P5 5 string and a L7 , les paul-ish guitar from the same brand.

I'm waiting for Sire to release a V series bass with a MM pickup.

Lovely basses, got to get the 5 strings with active passive switch. Later on also the 6 strings version, hahahahah.

I'm so in love with Lee at this point; great vid

Where's Cici?

What guitar chairs are y'all using in all your videos?

Sire basses are amazing, got P5 4string and its very nice playing instrument, maybe little neck heavy but still comfy and light. Those are easily 2x-3x quality for what they cost, I have also H7 es335 copy which is okay.. not that impressing, but basses are Sire's thing absolutely.

Are hardcases available to buy ?

What is difference between V5R and V3R? Also do they make Fretless? Lee is amazing!

I see on new revisions there are 5 screw bridges, are they fender compatible? (because if yes, it opens you to the marked of plenty of 3rd party bridges)

Has the battery compartiment been improved?

Pretty sold on one of these.. I'm a guitar player but I want a P style bass to put Steve Harris' signature pups on. Deciding between a regular P or a P with the extra J pickup for extra versatily

I've tried a score of basses in the past few months, maybe 25-30 different models: Squier, Sire, Ibanez, Jackson, Fenders, and more I've forgotten. I have very good words for the Jacksonbacker 5 strings, there was a Sire, yellow colored kind of jazz Bass which model number I don't recall, the Ibanez 32 inch "medium scale" cherry red with maple neck and maple fretboard, but I went for two Yamahas: TRBX305 and TRBX304. There is simply NO better value for the money.

It's odd that they don't color the truss rod cavity to be the same color as the pickguard to camouflage it on the ones with the black pickguard. I suppose it's an easy thing to do yourself if you want it that way.

Nice blackbird at 7:20

Sick playing at 4:32

Where we can find pickguard for V10-DX??

Any hum cancelation pickups?

How much does the V3p weigh? I have the orange one and it is very heavy.

That's how you sell basses. A great bass player and they all seem to have had a proper setup. No fret buzz! And no slap fest. You can actually hear how good they sound.

Is there a V5 fretless option, do we know?

Hey guys, I think you have the V10DX and the P10DX links mixed up. Just FYI :)

I am waiting for my V5 fretless natural 5 string from the factory.

I love Cici, she's amazing, but what happened to Lee? Is he off on tour or has he left Anderton's? I miss the Lee/Nathan segments.

Sea foam green looks like the green color i think.

Sire Marcus Miller Sire V10 vz V10dx 5-String Bass?? What is the real difference???

Did Nathan depart from Andertons?

Is Mono making the cases for Sire? It sure looks like a Mono bag

Bought my daughter the U5 short scale and yeah, for the money, not sure if you can do better.

I love the way the passive basses sound, the preamps leave something to be desired. Idk though, am I just missing something?

not a bassist, but I agree to be honest. Whenever I'm playing with a bass player and thinking I am LOVING your tone, or see a bass player whose tone I love, 80-90% of the time it's a passive instrument. Often some sort of p bass. One time I saw a 3 piece where the bass player was playing a rickenbacker and it sounded absolutely sensational too. Equally, some of the worst bass tones I've ever heard have come from players wielding expensive active monsters making sounds honkier than an actual goose lol

I’m from the States; bought a V7 5-string swamp ash/clear gloss from Anderton’s back in February of this year - for one, they were impossible to find anywhere in the US, and two, it was far cheaper - even shipped overseas - to get it from Anderton’s than it would have been to purchase from a retailer in the states (about $200 USD less expensive). All said, it’s looks, sounds and plays nicely for the price…and from a standing distance, it does look quite premium. However, it shipped with a number of small finish flaws (binding scuffs, paint marks, cracked pickup cover, large file indent on the bridge, etc.) that you would never find on an actual ‘four-figure instrument’. Thus, the claims of Sires being ‘equivalent to instruments 4x the price’ are pure hyperbole. Mind you, I play in a working wedding band - my bass case gets tossed in the gear trailer and I’m playing/handling it constantly; I wasn’t looking for an ‘heirloom instrument’ to begin with. Just know that if you buy a Sire, you are getting what you pay for, not necessarily more/less than that.

@@JazzzRockFuzion I play for a living and do all kinds of work ranging many genres and I also own a sire (V9). I can attest to everything you say they are great instruments but def not the fender killer some probably think they are. I see them starting to try to change that with this new lineup esp the hipshot hardware on the Dx models. I still mainly gig my fenders for this reason and I'm not a die hard fender fanboy.

Great way to play with yourself and others can actually watch 😂

V5r the R means rosewood. V5 has a maple board.

Short scale?

A passive V3 is long overdue. The V3 was positioned as something a new bassist could start with but all the knobs just complicated things. Like why would a brand new player need a mid frequency selector? Kudos to Sire for finally doing this

Hey Guys. I'm in Mississippi and need advice. I'm 52, getting back into playing with a band after 20 years of music retirement. The band plays a lot of 50's 60's classic rock and old country from the late 60's early 70's. I'm thinking about Squire paranormal Carbonite, Squire 50's classic vibe, and Gretch g5220. I'm going to be playing locally. Any advice would be so greatful.God Bless!

I liked the best the cheapest one. To me the V3 series makes it difficult to justify the purchase of any other Sire Jb.

Missing that killer Nate/Lee duo, what happened?

What happened to Nathan?

Oh to have money.

A killer player LEEEEEEEEE

Marcus Miller and Sire please send me a Jazz bass

All the basses in this room are half the number of basses in total on the floor at your Andertons Music Co store. Please increase the floor space given to basses. Please let them out of their rooms.

Since these basses are on the market I just don't understand why people still buy fender..

Andertons always throws down on bass. Is it a job requirement to have the capacity to funk at any given moment?

no maple boards then...

Oh sh*t, P5 Duck Dunn GAS!

People that don't like satin finishes have no rizz

I think Sire is giving away the game. To get the features of these basses you need to pay 1600 to 2000 bucks. At the 700 dollar price point with fender you barely get any fit and finish.
