Description
The Sire P7 Alder 4 New Gen in Sunshine Yellow is a modern PJ bass that blends classic feel with smart upgrades, all refined from player feedback on the V7, V7 Vintage and P7 2nd Gen ranges. With a newly sculpted neck, stainless steel frets, upgraded pickups and a streamlined control layout, it is built to deliver pro-level performance, comfort and versatility at a highly accessible price.
Loaded with the Marcus Super PJ Revolution pickup set and the Marcus Heritage 3 preamp, the P7 New Gen covers everything from vintage thump to articulate modern tones, while the active or passive operation keeps you ready for any gig or session. Add in the bright, stage ready Sunshine Yellow finish, lightweight hardware and Lumiinlay position markers, and you have a bass that looks the part and feels effortless to play, night after night.
New Gen Neck for Effortless Playability
The updated C shape New Gen neck is designed to feel familiar yet noticeably more comfortable, with a profile that sits naturally in the hand and encourages relaxed playing across the full 34 inch scale. Edgeless rolled fretboard edges remove any sharpness along the sides, so fast runs, position shifts and long sets feel smooth and controlled rather than fatiguing.
Refined Electronics with Simplified Controls
Sire have streamlined the control layout for quicker, more intuitive use on stage. The removal of the coil tap switch and the use of dual concentric pots keeps everything within easy reach, while still giving you detailed control over volume, pickup blend and a full three band EQ with sweepable mid frequency. The result is a clean, uncluttered layout that lets you dial in your sound fast.
New Gen Pickups and Marcus Heritage 3 Preamp
The Marcus Super PJ Revolution pickup set has been revoiced for a richer, more expressive response, balancing the punch and presence of a P style neck pickup with the clarity and bite of a J style bridge pickup. Paired with the Marcus Heritage 3 preamp, you get a wide tonal palette, from warm, rounded lows to cutting, articulate highs, with the option to run active for maximum flexibility or passive for straightforward, classic tones.
Stage Ready Visibility and Durable Hardware
Lumiinlay dot position markers ensure you can see your fret positions clearly in low light, helping you stay confident on dark stages. Stainless steel frets offer long lasting durability and a slick feel under the fingers, while lightweight aluminium tuning gears reduce overall weight and help keep the bass well balanced on a strap.
