A New Gen Designed for Stage and Studio
Born from the Sire x Larry Carlton collaboration, the S7 New Gen captures the spirit of the Larry Carlton series S-Style guitars with an emphasis on consistency and durability over time. The "White" finish paired with the silver aluminum pickguard offers a premium look, while the alder body and refined hardware make it an electric guitar ready to withstand rehearsals, gigs, and sessions without surprises.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
Accessible to ambitious beginners and precise enough for seasoned players, this Sire S7 is ideal if you're looking for an electric guitar that covers everything: funk, blues, pop, variety, indie, pop-rock, classic and modern rock. Its 25.5" / 648 mm scale length favors attack, intonation, and controlled bends, while maintaining a familiar feel for players used to S-Style guitars.
The Sound
The SIRE LC Super-ST set offers a responsive and articulate sound, with great chord definition and dynamics that faithfully follow right-hand playing. The intermediate positions (2 and 4) provide the famous "quack" tone much appreciated in funk and pop rhythms, while the neck and bridge positions allow you to go from silky cleans to crunchy grit, then to cutting leads. Alder brings natural balance and musical mids, while the maple neck and fingerboard enhance attack and clarity. The modern tremolo, combined with locking tuners and the Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut, contributes to stable tuning and consistent sustain.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To immediately unlock the guitar's potential, choose a set of electric strings with gauges 9-42 for more flexibility, or 10-46 for greater tension. A quality strap and a stable guitar stand are also essentials for safe daily use.
