Just to clarify, active/passive switching is possible on the Z7 & the Z3.
It’s close to that stingray thing but not quite there… still amazing for the money
Really enjoy this double act!
They definitely have tone that's reminiscent of vintage pre-EB Stingrays. They still lack a bit of bite though.
very very nice jam at the end !!!!! ????
But ???? ???????????????? 5:06
One of those 5-string Sire models would appeal to me if I wasn’t caught up in the idea of getting a headless 5-string.
Is the Z7 body slightly smaller than that of the Z3?
So is a “split-J pickup” like a P pickup in a smaller housing? I was hoping the 2 pickup version would have a P pickup in the neck.

She is cute
I received my Z3 from Andertons at the weekend (in white, although I'm still wondering if I should have gone all in with black sparkle!). It's still early days but it's a phenomenal amount of bass for the money. Having briefly owned a Ray4, I feel like it's a notable step up in quality for the same price. The neck is out-of-this-world good – not just for the price, full stop. I was apprehensive about the (ceramic?) pickup but it and the preamp sound very good and are not overly pokey a la Ray4, which means it can cover a fair bit of ground sonically. The pickup is even wired in parallel, meaning it's actually closer to an old Stingray than Sterling's own effort… I did slap some old Chromes on it and it's pretty much late 70s-80s disco funk heaven. Boost the treble a tad and it cops a decent 80s Pino tone too. The passive mode is also very usable, not a big drop in volume and works well for that Dart-esque vibe.
It's my first Sire and I can see why people rave about them. The fit and finish is absolutely excellent on the one I got, and the setup was also pretty much spot on – a bit on the high side action-wise perhaps, but I lowered it with no issues, no truss rod tweaks needed. The nut slots might be a smidge high too, but I've seen way worse on much pricier instruments.
The problem is I'm now looking at that natural Z7, and Sire's guitars too ????
A fretless Z3 would also be an absolute boss move from Sire, but that might be a bit niche for them. Here's hoping the range works well and they add to it.
Great playing guys! Such good value basses!
12" radius… Not for me unfortunately, and it's a great bass ????
Great review as usual… Thanks! ❤
Just recieved my Z7 this afternoon from Andertons. I ordered it approximately 48 hrs ago!. Delivery a dream and a certificate of quality checks included. I’ve took it out jamming tonight!………….it's fekin awesome! If you're into the Stingray sound, just buy one. 9 hours in and I'm thinking it's going to be my no1.
"Maybe mahogany is heavier than swamp ash…" YA THINK?
Do they come in lefty versions?
lobateuingbacot hahaha
Lovely playing in the outro! ????
What’s the difference between this 5 string model and the sterling ray25 please ?
Mentioning the alphabet’:
That new F10 6-string looks and sounds amazing. Finally a ‘Fodera’ that comes within reach ????????????????.
So waiting (and saving) for that one ????????
I wish the Z3's came in a natural finish
Lee did you get finally one of these? ????
8:42 excuse me?
Oh yeah, I want the one with the front pickup. Sweet
I have a v7 and a p7 love them both. Do I buy a 3rd bass?
Sounds great. Sire are the truth
Great review????
Play it! 8:23
13:31 we all felt taht right? OMG
minute 17:40 fu***g Flea Stingray tone right there
Is that natural a custom? Can’t find it with that color headstock and pick guard?
Looking healthy, Lee.
Keep it up!
Queria muito ter esse Sire Z7 Natural
Hello it can be switch in active to passive? In case battery is dead?
They are ugly
Z7 sounds very buzzy and distorted. Is that a recording issue?
Is the string spacing wider than stingray 5? I kinda find it difficult to play on stingray 5 due to the narrow spacing of 17mm. I really do hope that the z series would have 18mm……
Man that girl sucks… what is she doing there? That guy alone saved this presentation
Loved the video thanks ordered one off yourselves, should be in stock and posted out anyday now , can't wait
Hey lovely people from Andertons ! Could you make a "Sound like Nolly Getgood without breaking the bank" for us bassists someday ? As usual, love the content !
I love that the J pickup is actually a Split Coil J… No wonder this bass sounds so freaking great.
