The Larry Carlton Spirit, Revisited by Sire
Born from the Sire x Larry Carlton collaboration, the L3 HH combines the single cut "L Junior Shape" aesthetic with modern craftsmanship designed for reliability. Set neck, simple and effective electronics, chrome hardware, and a black pickguard: a blend of tradition and modernity at the heart of the Larry Carlton range for musicians seeking an inspiring and accessible instrument.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
Versatile and comfortable, the L3 HH suits ambitious beginners as well as intermediate and advanced players. Its pair of humbuckers effortlessly covers rock, blues, jazz, pop, and indie styles. Weighing 4.7 kg, it offers a solid foundation on stage and in the studio while remaining balanced in playing position.
Sound Characteristics
The mahogany body and neck paired with a rosewood fingerboard deliver dense mids, smooth highs, and a full low end. The Sire LC Standard humbuckers provide a moderate and musical output: neck position for round cleans and mellow jazz, middle for open arpeggios, bridge for punchy riffs and solos that cut through the mix. The wraparound bridge enhances attack and vibration transfer, while the set neck promotes sustain. The 12" radius and Medium Jumbo frets facilitate bends and vibratos while maintaining stable intonation.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
A set of nickel strings 10-46 (ideal gauge for 24.75" scale), 6.35 mm jack cable (straight or angled), strap for standard strap buttons, 6-string electric guitar capo, and a clip-on tuner for quick tuning before each session.
