My very first impression of the M7 6-string is that it's lighter in weight than I was expecting. I'd been used to my original V7 Ash/Maple 4-string that weighs close to 10lbs. The M7 6-string felt much lighter than that for a larger bass. With a good strap, the neck balances well and I think it...

It was a really fun night! It was the first time I'd been in the same room to play with another musician since the lockdown began in March 2020. It was cool assembling the "Wall of Sire" and checking out so many Sire basses in one place. There were more than a few I wanted to take home!

That photo (attachment above) was taken on June 17, 2021 just before my demonstration clinic at The Arts Music Store in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. You can check out the clinic video here. Full disclosure: I am a Sire Endorsing Artist.

Hey BigTreble, You can purchase Sire basses all across Canada at various local guitar dealers. They are distributed by Coast Music. If you are in Ontario, The Arts Music Store in Newmarket currently has a great selection available. (Note: I am a Sire endorsing artist in Canada)

Just got my Sire V7 Ash/Maple NT 4-string and really enjoying the feel & sound of this thumper! For those interested, I've got signed #397 here in Toronto, Canada.
