General

Sire electric guitars are known for their excellent balance between price and quality, and the Larry Carlton S5 HSS is another prime example. Thanks to the strategic placement of the strap button above the twelfth fret, the alder body stays perfectly balanced when playing guitar standing up anyway. In addition, the deep cutaway at the back offers easy access to all 22 medium jumbo frets on the maple fretboard. The edges of this Edgeless fingerboard are subtly rounded, which, together with the C-neck profile and guitar frets, ensures a long comfortable playing experience.

S5 HSS: versatility from bright single-coil sounds to powerful humbucker tones

For amplified guitar sounds, the S5 HSS is equipped with Sire LC Super-V element set with an HSS configuration. This gives you those full powerful sounds of a humbucker in addition to those vintage bright single-coil sounds in the neck and middle positions at the bridge. The modern 2-point tremolo allows you to add subtly expressive vibrato effects to your playing, while the Sire Standard Tuners help with the overall tuning stability of this Sire USA solidbody electric guitar and the bridge saddles contribute to accurate intonation of your guitar strings.

Wrote the following about Sire Larry Carlton S5 HSS Candy Apple Red Electric Guitar

Was kapot in de doos geleverd.
Kleur etc is goed alleen deed de bridge het niet. Heb hem 3 maart gelijk naar de winkel terug gebracht maar kreeg 2 weken later een bericht dat ze hem gaan repareren en dat het dan nog eens 3 weken duurt.
