With the S7 New Gen, Sire transposes the S-Style spirit into a left-handed version without compromise. The combination of North American alder and maple provides a balanced tonal foundation, while premium hardware and meticulous craftsmanship ensure durability, tuning stability, and playing comfort. This "New Gen" iteration stands as the versatile and accessible model of the Larry Carlton series.
Perfect for motivated left-handers as well as advanced intermediates, the S7 covers pop, rock, blues, funk, and fusion. The C-profile neck and compound radius offer an immediate grip for precise rhythm, controlled bends, and fast solos without fretting out.
The SIRE Larry Carlton H?S?S pickup set combines a dense and defined bridge humbucker for riffs and leads with two sharp single coils for bright cleans and percussive rhythms. The 5-way selector delivers the expected S-Style palette, from "quack" intermediate positions to creamy drive. Alder balances lows and highs, maple adds attack and clarity, and stainless steel frets ensure sustain and tonal consistency. The modern tremolo, supported by locking tuners, maintains stability even during expressive playing.
6-string electric guitar string sets in gauges 9-42 or 10-46 depending on your playing style, plus a standard strap with classic attachments. These choices respect the S7?s H?S?S configuration and vibrato while preserving tuning stability.
