Overview of Sire Larry Carlton L7 Electric Guitar
The single-cut Larry Carlton L7 Electric Guitar from Sire has been designed to meet its namesake's meticulous standards for playability, tone, and overall feel. A mahogany body with flamed maple top is resonant, lightweight, and stage ready for hours of comfortable play. A smooth mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard offers the playability and response that suit a variety of styles, from jazz to rock and blues. A Sire modern Tune-o-matic and aluminum stop tailpiece supports wonderful sustain and tuning support. And for stellar amplified sonic output, a pair of Larry Carlton modern humbuckers delivers warm, full tone that can be dialed in to fit your style.
The Larry Carlton Modern Humbuckers in this signature axe have been wired to deliver tone that is versatile and classic sounding — just like Larry likes it! The neck position 'bucker stays creamy and warm even when driven hard; the bridge 'bucker is nice and full of bite, without the shrill or ice-pick tone that some 'buckers can slide into — especially when grit and crunch are added. Shape your tone with the two volume controls, two tone controls, and a 3-way toggle, and feast your eyes on the vintage-inspired brown top hat knobs while you do! In sum, the results that this pickup duo deliver resonate through hard-hitting to softly strummed chords, and from finessed jazz runs to rocking riffs. Simply put, Mr. Carlton would only stamp-approve pickups that represent his own versatility of style — a versatility that led him to play on a seemingly countless number of artists' albums and singles.
The "C"-shaped mahogany neck on the L7 fills your hand nicely, while staying out of your way. This guitar's 24.75-inch scale makes for effortless vibrato and painless string bends, and its 12-inch-radius ebony fingerboard flaunts medium-jumbo frets and rolled edges for enhanced playability. You also get a tone-enhancing bone nut and sustain-boosting set-neck joint. And the satin finish is smooth, not slippery.
