Born from the Sire lineage inspired by "S-style" guitars and Larry Carlton?s musical approach, the S5 HSS 2024 pushes the series? DNA towards more power and versatility. It retains the familiar ergonomics, manufacturing reliability, and excellent quality/performance ratio that have made the range renowned, while adding a powerful bridge humbucker and enhanced tuning stability.
Ideal for ambitious beginners, intermediate players, and gigging musicians seeking a versatile electric guitar. It effortlessly covers funk, pop, rock, blues, gospel, and fusion. The intermediate pickup positions shine in rhythm playing, while the humbucker provides the necessary body for singing solos and heavily saturated riffs.
The LC Super V set in HSS configuration offers a wide spectrum: crystalline, percussive cleans on the neck/middle singles to tight crunches and thick saturations via the bridge humbucker. The 5-position selector and Volume/Tone controls allow quick fine-tuning between brightness and warmth. The alder + maple combination highlights attack, definition, and projection, while the Sire S7V 2 vibrato bridge promotes sustain and tuning stability for subtle vibratos as well as more pronounced effects.
For this "S-style" electric guitar, choose string sets 9?42 or 10?46, an adjustable strap, an electric capo, a well-fitted S/Strat style gig bag/case, a 6.35 mm jack instrument cable, and a stable folding stand. These accessories ensure protection, playing comfort, and reliability on stage and at home.
