I'll be honest... I was fangirl-ing out a bit just watching him trying not to fangirl out. I know Miller is there promoting his product, not just being a performer but, damn... no WAY could I have been concentrating. Hats off, Lee.
You probably dont give a damn but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I somehow lost the account password. I appreciate any help you can give me
Lee is a FANTASTIC bassist! If I were anywhere near the U.K., I'd be bugging him for lessons all the time. I'd like to see him do more playing videos! Those Sire basses are the real deal. If I were into FSO's, I'd definitely be trying them out. Oh yeah, Marcus Miller is pretty good, too...LOL!
Definitely. Unlike signature models, where it's just a design with someone's name on it, Marcus Miller actually has input on the production of the basses and the direction that Sire is going in. He has legitimate input and this is immediately obvious in Sire's sound and reviews.
@@darkySp absolutely... While no denying that he would also get some %, but it's obvious that he's indeed care about the quality of the basses. Just bought V7 few weeks ago and was directly blown away by the sound and build quality...
Imagine , having your all time hero , sitting in front of you , trying to speak..Yeah nah lets just play.. Awesome vid Lee :) thank you Marcus Miller :)
Way late to this vid, but what an incredible honor to play with Marcus Miller... And how incredible to not only keep it together, but also to have made such beautiful music together!! Amazing!!!!
I love the different faces and gestures musicians make while they play. They aren't just playing the notes; they feel what they are playing. Doesn't matter what the instrument is, i can't help but to admire them, just imagining how hard they must work to go from simply playing the notes, to feeling the music, and having a genuine connection to it. B. B. King is a really good example. He is really expressive.
Oh man! Marcus is my all time fav! A true musical legend. I would be totally speechless. I also wouldn’t want to play in his presence. 😂 Lee, you did great man!
That was awesome. Even though I'm a guitar player that was the best Andertons video ever. I have a Sire fretless which i love but play badly. I think Sire have got things right. Marcus is a true genius musician. Lee was brilliant jamming with him I truly felt his joy. In an alternate reality if i was sat on a stool next to Hendrix i wouldn't be able to function as a human being. Im sure many bass players would agree could there be a 'Nathan Meets' his brother episode which lasts about 3 hours.
Jan Kevin you have NO IDEA. He came to Kenya about two months ago now, and I sat at the piano and just went blank. So I have the video but can’t bring myself to show it to my pals because I completely botched it up 😂😂😂 Hell of a man though... and musician
It's great to know that Marcos was influenced by the great Jaco Pastorius...even if he did listen to his album and didn't get it straight away....but he stuck with it.....thanks Marcos for all the great music.....Jaco is probably jamming with you right now while your playing.....and thank you Lee
Jamerson...graham ...Clark and pastorius were Marcus's primary influences .. marcus and jaco knew each other ...Marcus has some great stories about when he first met jaco and jaco saying he respected Marcus's work too
Can I just say that I've heard those two jam two times and... Both times, I've been going "Hey, that's a cool lick / touch to the jam!! Who did it?" And EVERY TIME, it was Lee's?? Lee's got such a ton of cool ideas on jams that are really special and inspiring :D
Awesome vid and instrument. Well done Lee for holding your own with a bonafide bass legend. Again. For around the price of an entry level US Fender this is a bargain.
I borrowed a buddy's vintage Fender P-bass (Pre CBS) to take into the studio, and the engineers just couldn't get the sound to work. I ended up using an Ibanez Soundgear bass to finish the job. I would love to pick up one of these Sires!
These basses have premium looks and tone, Sire and Marcus Miller have done it again. Great playing on the demos, but you really don't expect anything less.
The contents of your "Yeah Jar" after this video should be enough to buy the entire line of Sire basses. Great video, fantastic playing and very cool basses.
What Marcus mentions about woods coming from a country where it is illegal to cut the tree down, doesn't matter just as long as you get a good, focused, in tune sound, points out a key reason why basses like those of Ken Smith and Alembic aren't as well used these days as they were in the seventies and eighties. The reason came out when former Alembic luthier Rick Turner was hired by Fleetwood mac to work as their guitar and bass tech. Turner quickly decided to introduce John McVie and Lindsey Buckingham to Alembic instruments but while the former took to them straight away, the latter decided that e didn't like that crystal clear, lifeless, sterile sound of the Alembic guitars Turner gave him. So Turner decided to figure out why the Alembic guitars didn't have that life that a Fender Telecaster or a Gibson Les Paul have. Turns out that it all came down to resonance, Alembics with their multilayered neck constructions and "Hippy Sandwich" layered bodies killed off the natural acoustics of the instrument, where as a Fender and a Gibson have bodies made from two matching parts and a neck which is two pieces including the glued on fingerboard. Having had that epiphany, Turner made Buckingham a guitar with a two piece mahogany body and absolutely nailed it, Lindsey Buckingham still played Turner guitars. So how did that apply to basses? Well in the mid eighties players like John Pattitucci and Anthony Jackson came to the same conclusion that their Ken Smith Basses weren't giving them that deep blooming low end that their Fender Precision basses had, for the very same reason why Lindsey Buckingham found that the Alembics weren't giving him the sounds he wanted. The current Yamaha Pattitucci signature model might look like a typical extended range six string bass but it has the two part ash body and bolt on neck like a Fender. If you're a professional musician and doing lots of studio work, there's no producer on the face of this planet who will tell you "No" if you're walking in with a Fender or a Fender style bass, they KNOW it's going to sound good.
I agree with all of this .. with the exception of the Alembic .. I’ve had all those Basses and I got rid of them for this exact reason.. however I still do love the Ken Smith basses and the early Tobias basses not the MTD basses although they do sound fantastic
I had a Sire V7 5 string, great bass but it weighed 10 3/4 lbs. It would have been fantastic if they could have chambered the body on this model. An excellent bass!
I love Lee's excitement ha ha. Marcus rules anyways. I was that excited too when I met Marcus in person years ago so I'm not suprised. He's a great bass dude. And a super dude in general. 😊
Love Marcus Miller and I own a V7 2nd gen (love it too), but I don't know if I buy his remark about slapping primarily due to his maple neck. Maple neck's can do it all, albeit a bit brighter.
Ok, these basses are more like it. I've tested multiple V7s and not one fitted my style of aggressive play ,but if the V10 has a more focused sound because of the wood combination and new pickups it could be a awesome challenge. Hopefully they'll make a 5 string version that sounds just this good
Amazing, & Congrats on this video. Also well played for keeping your cool mate......I would have been like an Excited school girl in the presence of one of the Gods of Bass 🤣
Marcus Miller: *breathes*
Lee: Yeaah! Definitely!!
haha! Crying Emoji required.
Man! Can we blame him? I would do the same hehehehe
@@juancarloslunajuegon4645 yeah, absolutely!
I find it awesome that Lee is doing his ever loving damndest to not completely fangirl out hahaha gorgeous basses
You should have seen him off camera!
@@andertons ... how much$?
Getting to Jamm with Marcus Miller. Bucket list lol
I'll be honest... I was fangirl-ing out a bit just watching him trying not to fangirl out. I know Miller is there promoting his product, not just being a performer but, damn... no WAY could I have been concentrating. Hats off, Lee.

Good for you, Lee! That grin on your face is priceless...and jamming with Marcus Miller is the envy of so many bass players the world over...
I am a guitarist. I do not play bass. But I have never seen a better example of "the tone is in your hands" than Marcus Miller!
Marcus Miller is fantastic, but let's not kid around; Lee is also incredibly talented.
Yup, Lee is no joke!!!
definitely a great responsibility to jam with the man
Lee is a FANTASTIC bassist! If I were anywhere near the U.K., I'd be bugging him for lessons all the time. I'd like to see him do more playing videos! Those Sire basses are the real deal. If I were into FSO's, I'd definitely be trying them out. Oh yeah, Marcus Miller is pretty good, too...LOL!
Wow, this is huge. Marcus Miller is a living legend and loved the interview.
His recent Master Class blew us away! Unreal.
Lee just casually jamming Jaco with Marcus Miller. A bassists DREAM
This is unbelievable. What a legend. And you can tell Lee is trying to not to completely lose it as a fangirl lol
Nice guys well demonstrated
and failiing miserably ... "yeah! (x50)
I know Marcus Miller is a legend, but Lee played insanely well. Serious congrats to that man for the interview and the playing.
Wow. Just wow. For MM to turn up to demo his own basses shows commitment.
Brian Roberts well I’m sure there were a couple of greenbacks headed his way for that too.
Committment to the % he gets for every bass sold
Definitely.

Man, people on drugs look less high than Lee there! Bless!
he always looks completely coked up ..
Imagine jamming with MM and trying not to look buzzed............
Wow! What a great demo video, and how cool of the man himself to visit!
Lee.. awesome playing man. Especially the melodic leads.
Cheers
Oh man! Marcus is my all time fav! A true musical legend. I would be totally speechless. I also wouldn’t want to play in his presence. 😂 Lee, you did great man!
Portrait of Tracy riff at the beginning. Beautiful
Awesome! I am looking forward to seeing Marcus live on Sunday 😍
The jam at the beginning is soooooo awesome. You can feel it in your soul. Or at least I can.
Marcus is one of the main reasons why i bought a jazz bass.
The Sire that Marcus is holding looks and sounds really nice! 🔥 Amazing player and Lee definitely kept up! Great jam at the start.
Lee played a normal bassline. Marcus is an innovator.
Living legend. Someday I’ll get to see Marcus play live....well done Andertons...loving this
In case anyone's wondering, The Lick almost happens at 6:36.
I was just about to say that :D
What is...the lick? New subscriber here
@@SoloNecr0zis here you go friend:
th-cam.com/video/krDxhnaKD7Q/w-d-xo.html
Oh damn that's just frustrating 😂
lol nice catch
i love these vids cause you see professional players just messing around and playing whatever and it makes me realize how much i have to learn!
Smooth AF...Bravo Lee bringing it to the party!
Lee’s “Yeah” tally with Marcus is over 9000 👊 lol
That intro made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, fabulous.
That was awesome. Even though I'm a guitar player that was the best Andertons video ever. I have a Sire fretless which i love but play badly. I think Sire have got things right.

"There's nothing like old wood"..."that's wot she said"...!!!.
The most impressive thing is that how Lee at least tries to not freak out playing with Marcus there because Lord knows I would have failed miserably 😭
Could listen to these guys play all day.
I honestly wouldn't know what to play if I was jamming with MM. Great job, Lee!
Jan Kevin you have NO IDEA. He came to Kenya about two months ago now, and I sat at the piano and just went blank. So I have the video but can’t bring myself to show it to my pals because I completely botched it up 😂😂😂
Hell of a man though... and musician
@@Keys_To_Clarity what an experience! haha
How did you come to the opportunity to sit at the piano with him?
Amazing bass! I've got V9 freltess so far but this video made me thinking about getting V10 now. Cheers guys!
That jam in the middle was amazing! New super level of respect for Lee.
Dear lord,
That jam session in the middle of the video had me chilling out more than ive had in YEARS.
im actually gonna see marcus in concert on monday so this vid is exciting for me
Hell yeah! Im going to see him in August here in Houston. I can’t wait! Seeing Marcus Miller live is a bucket list item for me.
Amazing individuals! Great interview. Awesome basses 🎶🎶
Lee that second jam was amazing . 🤘🏻
I thought I saw all of the All About the Bass episodes. Just came across this gem. Can't believe it. Awesome
What a treat having Marcus talk through the Basses
That lick Miller plays at 00:23 is my favorite part of this video. I can't stop repeating it!
I think Lee is in love and who can blame him. Marcus is such a cool dude.
The new V10 basses look and sound great, and Marcus is all in on Sire!!! I'm still thrilled with my first generation V7 5!!!
Great interview and playing 😊👌
Thanks very much for your excellent work, guys!!! Love Marcus Miller and Sire basses❣
Awesome Bass Duet in the middle. Fantastic Musicianship.
It's great to know that Marcos was influenced by the great Jaco Pastorius...even if he did listen to his album and didn't get it straight away....but he stuck with it.....thanks Marcos for all the great music.....Jaco is probably jamming with you right now while your playing.....and thank you Lee
Jamerson...graham ...Clark and pastorius were Marcus's primary influences .. marcus and jaco knew each other ...Marcus has some great stories about when he first met jaco and jaco saying he respected Marcus's work too
Marcus is so totally cool on so many levels. I thought the Sire V7 was sweet, these are on another level.
Slightly more expensive, but so much Bass for the money! They're even better up close!
Can I just say that I've heard those two jam two times and... Both times, I've been going "Hey, that's a cool lick / touch to the jam!! Who did it?" And EVERY TIME, it was Lee's?? Lee's got such a ton of cool ideas on jams that are really special and inspiring :D
Whats the difference between the Sire v10dx and thenSire v10?
Was waiting for Lee to drop and do a we're not worthy! Brilliant, miller is the man !!!
Marcus and Lee, together again! (See 2019 NAMM videos)
Yeah and he was so much cooler then here....but we understand... #TeamLee
Awesome vid and instrument. Well done Lee for holding your own with a bonafide bass legend. Again. For around the price of an entry level US Fender this is a bargain.
“This man needs no introduction” = I couldn’t be arsed to do one. Awesome video guys!
Props to Lee for killing it w Marcus Miller! Tasty jams
Dude im so happy that you can play jacos bass lines. VERY MUCH!
I borrowed a buddy's vintage Fender P-bass (Pre CBS) to take into the studio, and the engineers just couldn't get the sound to work. I ended up using an Ibanez Soundgear bass to finish the job. I would love to pick up one of these Sires!
These basses have premium looks and tone, Sire and Marcus Miller have done it again. Great playing on the demos, but you really don't expect anything less.
Pure Joy! Well done man!
That jam at 8 minutes is just perfect.
Wow..that was BEAUTIFUL!
Love it, Marcus! I hope you see a million!
That was just AWESOME! I don't even play bass but I want one of those because they are just gorgeous!
You're not the only person to say this - all the Sire basses have been so popular.
I think Marcus genuinely loved this interview :)
Awesome video, I got to admit I really want to try out one of these basses now!
WHOA!!!!!! i KNOW you counldnt hold your excitement!!!! nice jam in the middle!!
I just ordered my V10 DX 5 stringer!!
Awesome!! Marcus(The Living legend) Miller! Yeah, baby!!!
I just played one of these at my local Guitar Store and put one of my basses up for sale, lol! That neck profile really doesn't get better
I bought a M7 and love the low end on it. Loved it today when sound guy was like, I can feel those low notes!
The contents of your "Yeah Jar" after this video should be enough to buy the entire line of Sire basses.
Great video, fantastic playing and very cool basses.
We need more of this ;)

congratulation lee for not liquifying while jamming with one of the best
I love Sire basses, great sound and looks too.
Lee more than held his own with one the greatest!
Well done Lee, for holding it together.
Hahahah finally Marcus Miller is here. Such a good content 🙏🙏
Hi! Should I change the factory bridge on the V10 2nd gen? For example to a Babicz? What's your opinion? Thx!
Aww he looks so happy, I would be! Jamming with mr Marcus...
This is a fantastic video
Please tell us there's a "Captain Meets" video with Marcus coming...
You better believe it :)
But where's the Captain Meets? :O Also, it must be so surreal for Lee.
It'll be with you in good time ;)
Love Marcus Miller and I own a V7 2nd gen (love it too), but I don't know if I buy his remark about slapping primarily due to his maple neck. Maple neck's can do it all, albeit a bit brighter.
What a treat thanks guys
There’s just no other way to play those Jaco harmonics without forfeiting left hand technique 😪 sounds so damn good though!!
Incredible video. I bought two straight after. Two nespresso coffees!
Glorious jamming
Beautiful basses. If needed a one one it would definitely be one of these.
Great video
Ok, these basses are more like it. I've tested multiple V7s and not one fitted my style of aggressive play ,but if the V10 has a more focused sound because of the wood combination and new pickups it could be a awesome challenge. Hopefully they'll make a 5 string version that sounds just this good
The V10 is available in a 5 string version.
Love the video. Love these guitars. LOVE the playing. Love Andertons. But do they really need to supplement their income by using ads on their videos?
vitmedia it’s your cheap ass that doesn’t pay fuTube. Pay for things you like or someone else will
Amazing, & Congrats on this video. Also well played for keeping your cool mate......I would have been like an Excited school girl in the presence of one of the Gods of Bass 🤣
Marcus seems to be such a cool guy, besides his legend status :p
A little jaco at the beginning....nice!!!!!!
