    Sire Bass Club!

    No other issues. To be honest, I hadn't even noticed that the lines weren't at the edge until now. ;) That doesn't help much, because the further up the neck you go, the more the lines shift visually. I learned to play fretless on a double bass 20 years ago, so I try to use my muscle memory and...

    Sire Bass Club!

    Wasn´t intended to lure anyone. :) I exchanged it for two reasons: firstly, the volume difference between passive and active mode was somewhat suspicious – perhaps something was wrong. And secondly, I'm just used to playing five strings, so it's much more comfortable to play the V7-5 than the P7-4.

    I traded in my fretless and now I have this little gem. Took it to band practice for the first time yesterday. And even though the two (V7 Swamp Ash-5 Reissue vs. V7 Alder-5 FL) look roughly the same, the difference in sound is clear. My bandmates had a definitive favourite.

    Yes, tripping is a danger, but if the battery drains even while passive unplugging is better anyway.

    Just a quick question: Out of habit, I always unplug my bass when I take a longer break. Is this necessary in passive mode? I know of basses that consume battery power regardless of whether they are in active or passive mode. But my Spire works perfectly without a battery, which is why I asked...

    I rarely use the Behringer nowadays to be honest. :)

    Sire Bass Club!

    Just joined the club with my first MM-bass: V7 Swamp Ash-5 Reissue After a long break, I started playing in a band two months ago with an Ibanez SRD305, but this gem is much more in line with my personal preferences in terms of growling sound and design. I fell in love with it immediately. 😍 I...
