The bass guitar is the backbone of many musical styles, delivering the low-end power that holds everything together. Designed to play deep, resonant notes, it typically has four strings—though five- and six-string models are also popular—and comes in both fretted and fretless versions. Bass guitars can be electric or acoustic, with solid or hollow bodies, and are used across genres from rock and funk to jazz and reggae. In this category, you’ll find a wide selection of bass guitars to suit all levels, from beginner to pro, each built to provide great tone, feel, and reliability.

Sire is a music company best known for its high-quality yet affordable electric bass and guitar instruments. Originally founded by Larry DiMarzio and later rejuvenated through a collaboration with legendary bassist Marcus Miller, Sire has built a strong reputation for producing instruments that offer professional-level features without the premium price tag. The brand’s rise to prominence came particularly through the Sire Marcus Miller bass line, which gained popularity among both beginners and seasoned musicians for its build quality, versatile tone options, and stylish design.
In addition to bass guitars, Sire also makes electric and acoustic guitars, including collaborations with artists like Larry Carlton, a renowned jazz-fusion guitarist. These guitars are praised for their smooth neck profiles, reliable electronics, and classic aesthetics reminiscent of vintage Fender-style models. Sire’s focus on player comfort, quality components, and value has made it a go-to brand for those seeking boutique-style instruments without the boutique price, helping to democratise access to great gear.
