Better than you could imagine *for the price*
Aaron Christianson 23.04.2026
I've been sitting in a paradox for a while. The P sound is close to the ideal bass sound for me because it always sits well in the mix. However, I also love a five string because you get more positions and the extended range is always nice for Eb or D.

I've been dreaming of a 5-string P for ages for this reason, but the options are expensive (for a multi-instrumentalist), or they are cheap and you don't trust the stock pickups. I have no objection to changing pickups, but there are very few options to replace 5-string P pickups, so in this case I want the stock pickups to be good.

This bass is the answer to the problem. The stock pickups are great. The P sound is perfect, to my ear, the low B string is also very good.

In terms of sound, it sounds like a P bass. For me, that's the highest praise I could give. I'm not a vintage aficionado, so it's not about capturing vintage tones (which this bass does), it's about sitting well in a mix for normal bass playing, and this is what a P always does. There are no bad settings on this bass. You can slap or thump or tap, and every note comes through. To be clear, I'm not looking for infinite total variety, just for sounds that work with a band, and the beautiful thing with this bass is that there are no bad settings. It always works. The bass is rich and there are plenty of mids for presence. If you're going for the deepest bass or the sharpest highs, this is not an ideal bass, but if you want a bass that works in a band, this does it, always. It's a P. It does the P thing. I also got complements from the sound guy, which is the most important complement for me.

In terms of features, I gave it five stars. This is not because it has many features. I give it five stars here mainly because of the simplicity—which is to say, in a live setting, fewer features are a bonus. There is no battery to die. There is no setting on the tone knob which fails to deliver a usable sound. Whatever sound comes out of this bass, you may be sure it will work. In a studio, I might want more options, but live "no possible bad sounds" is what you want. This is really a case of "less is more" in terms of features.

Now to the bad parts: the final rating criteria on Thomann ist quality, and while the quality is very good (the rolled fretboard feels amazing), there are a couple frets which are slightly high on mine. I couldn't get the action quite as low as I wanted. The action is still quite low and very playable but I wanted it just slightly lower for tapping. The 7th and 12th fret would not comply. I may take it to a luthier.

Overall, exactly what I wanted. The build quality (a couple slightly high frets) is not immaculate, but for an instrument in this price range, I would be surprised if it were.

To get a Fender P of comparable quality, you'd probably need to get a pro series for more than double the money.

Would buy again. If it ever breaks, I will get the same bass.

Beautiful sound and quality. Excellent !
Albcohn 09.09.2023
The sound is a grate nice low end deep wit the unmistakable growl vintage P bass. The neck is superb comfortable with round edges that make a smooth ride trough scales lines going up and down the register. The 5 strings tend to neck dive but with an appropriate wide leather strap it will help to deal with.

Fantastic bass & value
Kevin K from the USA 28.04.2026
I cannot overstate the value of Sire basses and guitars. Do not hesitate to buy them instead of the 'big F'. For the money, they have all of the features, fit and finish, and the sound. They look, play, and sound well outside of their weight class.

SIRE Marcus Miller P5R Alder-5 TS 2nd Generation
Spector64 10.03.2023
FEATURES:
Die Lackierung ist erstklassig und makellos. Das der Body dreiteilig ist erkennt man nur bei sehr genauem Hinschauen auf der Rückseite. Der Hals sitzt passgenau in der Aussparung im Body. Die Halsneigung und Krümmung wurden perfekt eingestellt, lediglich bei der Saitenlage könnte man noch etwas nach unten korrigieren, was ich aber nicht getan habe, weil ich finde ein P-Bass spielt man mit den Fingern und nicht kraftlos, was bei einer niedrigen Saitenlage zum „scheppern „ führen würde. Die Stimmmechaniken laufen leicht und sind stimmstabil, auch die beiden Potis lassen sich leicht und zielgenau einstellen. Die Vintage-Brücke erfüllt ohne Abstriche ihren Zweck und mit der Option die Saiten durch den Korpus zu führen wird meines Erachtens das Sustain des Basses verbessert. Die Tonabnehmer sind an der P-Bass typischen Position und machen rein optisch, wie auch der Rest des Basses, einen sehr soliden Eindruck. Positiv möchte ich hier noch die Abrundung der Bundierung erwähnen, diese wurde gegenüber der Sire Bässe aus erster Generation verbessert, zudem bringt mein P5 nur 4,2 kg auf die Waage gegenüber den 5,16 kg die auf der Internetseite von Thomann angegeben werden.

SOUND:
Alleine über Kopfhörer oder Amp liefert der P5 einen unspektakulären Sound, spielt man aber zu einem Playback über Kopfhörer oder mit Band über den Amp zeigen sich ganz schnell seine Stärken, die Frequenzen die von ihm bedient werden sind genau die, die sich dort durchsetzen und hörbar werden, halt das was man von einem P-Bass erwartet! Was mir noch soundmäßig positiv aufgefallen ist, dass ich an meinen Amp (EDEN TERRA NOVA 501 über den passiv Eingang!) keine Veränderung vornehmen muss wenn ich zwischen dem aktiven SIRE V7 und dem P5 wechsel, was für den P5 spricht. Deadspots hat der P5 keine.

FAZIT:
Der Bass liegt gut in der Hand und man hat ein sehr gutes Spielgefühl, der Sound ist erstklassig, Ausstattung und und Verarbeitung sind Top, da passt wirklich alles. Er macht Spaß und ist jeden Euro wert!!! Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
