The Sire S7 FM ?New Gen? combines the aesthetics of a flamed maple top with modern luthiery designed for the discerning guitarist. As a descendant of the brand?s S?Style platform, it incorporates the series? advancements (stainless steel frets, Larry Carlton set) and pairs them with an alder body for an ideal responsiveness/balance ratio. The black aluminum pickguard and Transparent Blue Satin finish mark an instrument that is both elegant and road-ready.
Designed for intermediate to expert musicians, the S7 FM suits those seeking a modern, reliable, and versatile S?Style guitar. Pop, funk, blues, contemporary rock, and fusion: the middle pickup positions deliver a precise ?quack,? while the bridge humbucker provides dense leads and authoritative rhythm without losing definition.
Alder offers balanced mids and a consistent response, the flamed maple top adds projection and bite, and the maple neck/fretboard enhances brightness and articulation. The single coils deliver airy highs with tight lows, perfect for funk and compressed cleans. The humbucker brings a tighter, more focused grain for riffs and solos. The 5-position selector unlocks all H?S?S combinations, while the Volume/Tone controls refine the overall color. The modern tremolo, 4-bolt bolt-on construction, and stainless steel frets promote sustain, intonation, and note stability across the 25.5" / 648 mm scale length.
9?42 or 10?46 string sets (25.5" scale), Strat/S?Style gig bag or hard case, standard strap, adjustable capo for electric guitar compatible with 9.5" to 14" radius, quality 6.35 mm jack cable (straight or angled).
