Love how watching Allen's demos are just like watching a friend explain face to face what's great about X bass or amp: completely natural and easygoing
They should sponsor you! You sold me on this one! Mine is supposed to be shipped on July 30th! Can't wait! Thanks for the awesome reviews! Keep them coming!
I saw your video and ordered the bass two days later. I have it now and thank you for the great recommendation. The moment at 17:53 convinced me to get a bass with active electronics. I’m a new player and am going to learn your cool lines to get started . Thanks one million percent.
I've been watching you for a while never dawn on me about this M2,i wanted a maple neck, when i received this bass ,the OUTPUT ON THIS BASS IS JUST CRAZY,CRAZY VOLUME,BASS IS JUST RIDICULOUSLY OUT OF THIS WORLD MAN,I AM SO GLAD I WATCH YOUR VIDEOS,PEACE
Thanks for doing this great review, I've been thinking of getting the 4 string version of this bass and you just made up my mind and I'm going for it, thanks dude !! :)
Very nice demo. I picked up this very same instrument in Andertons a few weeks ago and still getting to grips with all the sonic possibilities it has to offer. As a guitar player of many years I'm a bit of a novice with the big brother and this has answered a few questions. Many thanks
Man I saw this bass and you playing it and man I had to get one mine is coming in soon. That bass guitar sounds like the one I need to help me get better at playing. I can't hardly wait to get mine in. Thanks for this review.
Yes Sir, got mine in May 4string. It’s everything his playing, face and conversation said it is. I didn’t believe it until I heard the playback from church. The sounds that you can get out of this $300-$400 bass is amazing. Along with great playability, I am keeping mine too!
WOW! That bass sounds amazing!!! Reminds me of a 2 pickup StingRay, a PRS Gary Grainger 5 and a touch of an MTD! I had no idea this was out! Looks like I might have to add this to my Sire V7 5! Killer bass and great playing!
Thank you so much for sharing. I've playing the guitar for more than 11 years and now i want to try something on bass. This Marcus Millers looks and sounds amazing, so I just purchased one right now. Thank you, I love how you enjoy playing it.
Big help years later as I'm looking at these basses. Thanks for this video because I have to order one of these and cannot play in store. This will make a perfect first bass.
Glad to be subscribed to your channel. I, thoroughly, enjoy your playing, enthusiasm and just overall great spirit. Another great video. I have the Sire V7 4-string and it’s a Beast! Marcus did an outstanding job with his basses. You get a boutique bass at 1/16th of the cost. Thank you for inspiring me to reach more in my playing. God Bless You My Brother.
It was worth the wait from what I'm hearing! really nice bro. Got to get myself one too. Loving the sounds and playability you're getting. More power to you!!!
Pro sire should be paying you for selling these guitars, I've been playing a v7 for a good while now but it was your review that convinced me to go ahead and order, now I'm seriously considering this model so I look to see if you had a review and I see inthecomments that lot of people feel the same way I do, great job brother!!!
Love your enthusiasm and playing!! My brother’s M5 5 string trans blue finally arrived after 8 1/2 month wait. Almost gave up on the wait because it was delayed 5 times. So glad we didn’t! They are worth the wait!!
Great Demo AB also great playing you just sold me on this Bass .Thanks for taking your time on the demo I heard Exactly what I wanted to hear.I am a MusicMan nut.This sire can hang with the big boy's yes I will be getting one real soon about to sell one or to of my low end basses that I put together. Thanks again.This will be my number 7 that I was looking for at a great price.
Awesome organic tone, with great craftsmanship and execellent quality, sire basses gives the consumer great boutique quality without the $$$$$$ expensive bass price tag, great review, thanks for sharing.
Only just sore this Video but i know what you mean. boosting bass all the way, boosting treble and taking mids out all the way. man it gave me goose bumps
I’m sold! Been looking at this bass for a while. If you say to buy I’m buying it. It’s currently at $439 but you still can’t beat the price. Btw. I love you’re video. Gonna set up your playing as my morning alarm!
Hi there. I accidentally watched your movie today. An excellent test and your positive energy! Because of you ..... xD I just gave up buying Epiphone Toby Bass and ...... I ordered M2-4 / TBL, heheh.
Best demo of the M2 on youtube! Man, hope Marcus is watching ya! Would be cool to do a side by side demo with the M7 to see the key differences. Any way Bro, that's a share and a sub from me!
Love your additude with the music, your a true funkateer. You can see you love and play music for the right resons. It makes you happy when you play..........so in turn you make me happy, now that's what music is all about moving people's emotions. Your sincere joy is rare in players today. So don't stop the music. My maple neck M2 5str. should be here next week. I've heard nothing but great reviews on this bass. I have a beautiful White ash 5str. V7 that i love. But I'm really excited about getting this M2. So thank you!!! for the encouragement to be a better player....player! rAN/D😎👍🎶
WOW! The low end boosted makes my computer sub-woofer fart like a flatulent cow. I've never heard it do that before. And you got this bass for only $399.00??? I think the 5 string V-9 MM Jazz go for $699.00 w/soft shell gig bag. I'll get that one first and then one of the M2s because my wife really likes the Sting Ray tone. Thanks for a GREAT demo and your apparent "suffering" in having so much fun. X) Blessings upon you!
I wasnt sure until u said "This is like a stingray". I wanted so hard to go 5 strings, but couldn't play something else than my 4 strings Stingray hehe !
Hey man! Awesome video. I'm looking forward to getting this bass to start out learning. I might look very closely on some of the licks you demoed here ;)
I now know why my playing is not where I want it to be, the joy on your face 16:35 lets me know how much you still love it after years of playing. The bass sounds incredible, I would name it Sigma.
3:48 anyone know what causes that pin tap sound on the highest string? I get that on my bass and I thought it was because I'm using tape wound strings but I hear it here too. Anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid that sound?
Excellent video 🤘🏻. I’m going through the same situation but with a fender deluxe 5 . The pre amp of the sire is much better , but I’m just overwhelmed with all the tone choices . Keep these videos going plz , your imput is really helpful to understand how to achieve tones and a cool ideas about grooves . Thank you 🙏🏻
Doblebass Matt I’ve got a Fender American Deluxe 5 with block inlays and I just said the same thing to my bass tech, I hate that dam preamp in my bass you would think a bass costing $1300.00 would come with a better one, don’t get me wrong it sounds dope in passive but in active mode there’s no tone shaping so I’m gonna probably go with an Aguilar on board preamp or John East from Bass Mods. Point blank I get the M2 and I wouldn’t need but these 2 basses
Sid Bates I'm looking both choices right now with the Aguilar pickups as a complete upgrade. Don't get me wrong the deluxe sounds amazing and I was a complete passive player before getting it. The tones I can get from the bass are really solid, but as soon as I touch the preamp I wish it was more versatile and with a bigger punch to it. Maybe the John east is a better option too, we have a lot of videos to watch ☝️
Love how watching Allen's demos are just like watching a friend explain face to face what's great about X bass or amp: completely natural and easygoing
SrTubular lol that's all I want to do... thanks for watching

This review made me buy a bass like this one , here in 2021! Thanks for the setup tips. You are an incredible bass player.
This is hands down the best demo I've found for the M2. thanks for full walk-through. I've watched it TWICE. LOL and I just got my M2 and I love it.
I appreciate you doing this. I bought a 4 string M2 and was feeling overwhelmed by the sound options available on this thing.
I saw your video and ordered the bass two days later. I have it now and thank you for the great recommendation. The moment at 17:53 convinced me to get a bass with active electronics. I’m a new player and am going to learn your cool lines to get started . Thanks one million percent.

16:35 OOOOH STOP lol...You're making me spend money...Thats KILLER lol. Your facial expressions though lol AWESOME AWESOME Demo AB....atb Dixie in uk
That's a real bass face there! Happiness in human form, lol.
Bass face for the win. You aren't a real bass player without the face.
this bass is sick- all the look and feel of a pro level one, but at a great price
I got the lefty of this, absolutely lovely bass.
WOW! That bass sounds amazing!!! Reminds me of a 2 pickup StingRay, a PRS Gary Grainger 5 and a touch of an MTD! I had no idea this was out! Looks like I might have to add this to my Sire V7 5! Killer bass and great playing!
Man, I been hearing good things about those Sire's
Thank you so much for sharing. I've playing the guitar for more than 11 years and now i want to try something on bass. This Marcus Millers looks and sounds amazing, so I just purchased one right now. Thank you, I love how you enjoy playing it.
You were the last straw, sir. I pulled the trigger this morning and bought the M2 (all black) 5 string. Thank you
Pastor CT Jermin awesome I'm sure ur gonna dig it
That is one sexy looking bass. Sweet playing. 16:35 killer tone. Thanks for sharing.
You have sold me on this bass. I am in the market for a 5 string and I think this is IT!!
You definitely did this bass justice by posting this review! Sounds amazing. I hope to get one some day.
Big help years later as I'm looking at these basses. Thanks for this video because I have to order one of these and cannot play in store. This will make a perfect first bass.
Mr. Bully the kid awesome knowledge and layback playstyle I improved my funk and gospel playing watching your clips big up to you sir
Sounds like a Ken Smith. Great tone
I like this tone, fully balanced tone with slight crisp high, best
Allen, 16:37 Lmao! Your facial expressions alone. I love that bass!
at 16:36, he knew he had the magic sound. Still hilarious in 2019!
Great demo, Thanks. That's a lot of bass for the money. Impressed!

I think you just sold me this bass
Best demo of the M2 on youtube! Man, hope Marcus is watching ya! Would be cool to do a side by side demo with the M7 to see the key differences. Any way Bro, that's a share and a sub from me!
Seems like the Sire Marcus Miller bass is worth buying.
Love your additude with the music, your a true funkateer.
You can see you love and play music for the right resons.
It makes you happy when you play..........so in turn you make me happy, now that's what music is all about moving people's emotions.
Your sincere joy is rare in players today. So don't stop the music.
My maple neck M2 5str. should be here next week. I've heard nothing but great reviews on this bass. I have a beautiful White ash 5str. V7 that i love. But I'm really excited about getting this M2.
So thank you!!!
for the encouragement to be a better player....player!
rAN/D😎👍🎶
I can’t get over the value of this bass . It’s nuts . If this was a boutique maker it would be 5 grand
WOW!
The low end boosted makes my computer sub-woofer fart like a flatulent cow.
I've never heard it do that before.
And you got this bass for only $399.00???
I think the 5 string V-9 MM Jazz go for $699.00 w/soft shell gig bag.
I'll get that one first and then one of the M2s because my wife really likes the Sting Ray tone.
Thanks for a GREAT demo and your apparent "suffering" in having so much fun. X)
Blessings upon you!
Thanks for the vid and the laugh when you messed up a bit :-) Greetings from Belgium and have a great 2019.
Many thanks for this review, very accurately and useful
Cool stuff man!👍
I wasnt sure until u said "This is like a stingray". I wanted so hard to go 5 strings, but couldn't play something else than my 4 strings Stingray hehe !
killer bass
Those triplets at 10:52! Please make a tutorial on that one. Sick technique!
Love it bro...good demo.
I’m buying this bass because of you. Keep it up 👍
This bass is so choice! Great video Allen!!
Awesome demo!! Big fan of your playing!!
Hey man! Awesome video. I'm looking forward to getting this bass to start out learning. I might look very closely on some of the licks you demoed here ;)
Great demo! Best so far! Im torn between this one and a Harley Benton MM-84A SB Deluxe (watched your demos too). Thoughts?
Awesome video thanks brother, about to pick me one up, crazy value and sound at 400 bucks
thank you from Italy!
Thanks bro you definitely help me decide buy this sweetyy! Great video can see It all the day bro ! You are the happy bass face!

I now know why my playing is not where I want it to be, the joy on your face 16:35 lets me know how much you still love it after years of playing. The bass sounds incredible, I would name it Sigma.
styner3 you know what... it's now in the running
styner3 lol I just looked at my self at 16:35 lol
Nice vid...looking to purchase a Sire next
i just got this bass and it's really cool. i'm still trying to figure out the tone settings i like best though. thanks for the insight.
Great review!!
hey great video damn good bass playing i'm a drummer myself
3:48 anyone know what causes that pin tap sound on the highest string? I get that on my bass and I thought it was because I'm using tape wound strings but I hear it here too. Anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid that sound?
I'm pretty sure that happens when the strings touch the magnet of the pickup, I get that sometimes.
Amazing bass for $400. No one else offers this kind of quality for that price.
Very very nice video, thank you
16:35 yesss! Scoop those mids like ice cream
I enjoyed this video, keep it up! 'v'
Excellent video 🤘🏻. I’m going through the same situation but with a fender deluxe 5 . The pre amp of the sire is much better , but I’m just overwhelmed with all the tone choices . Keep these videos going plz , your imput is really helpful to understand how to achieve tones and a cool ideas about grooves . Thank you 🙏🏻
