Legendary bassist Marcus Miller plays a 1977 Fender Jazz Bass ; he has many others, of course, but this one is his favorite bass. In 1998, Fender asked him to copy it and make it a signature model. Two versions were born, a 4-string produced in Japan, and a 5-string produced in the United States, from 1999 to 2014. It existed in 3 colors: natural (Marcus's), White and Sunburst.

Full maple, it's made for funk, slap, and a slamming sound. But its ultimate weapon is a small switch that allows it to go from passive to active ! So there are two basses in this already sublime bass.

The model we have is from 2008, and was signed by Marcus himself, as was the flycase. The whole story is in this video :
