A Modern S-style in the Larry Carlton Spirit
The Larry Carlton S10 embraces a decidedly modern approach to the "S"-type electric guitar, with choices focused on playability and versatility. Its refined aesthetics (Gold hardware, 3-ply white pickguard, abalone inlays) complement a setup designed to cover a wide range of tones, from crisp cleans to dynamic crunches.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
This S10 targets intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a responsive and comfortable guitar, suitable for both stage and studio. The SSS configuration excels in funk, pop, blues, classic rock, indie, and all genres where articulated tones, good definition, and expressive 2nd and 4th positions are desired.
The Sound
The swamp ash provides a lively response, well-controlled lows, and airy highs, ideal for maintaining clarity even with effects. The combination of maple neck and maple fingerboard enhances attack and precision, delivering a "direct" feel under the fingers. On the electronics side, the three Seymour Duncan single-coils offer detailed tone: in the extreme positions, you get clear and defined sounds, while the intermediate positions via the 5-position selector deliver those typical scooped and bright textures, perfect for rhythm playing. The 12-14" compound radius promotes clean bends and comfortable action across the neck.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the most out of it, consider a set of electric guitar strings (common gauges 009-042 or 010-046 depending on your touch) and a standard strap.
