The Sire Larry Carlton S7 FM is a standout S-style electric guitar designed in collaboration with the legendary guitarist. It features a lightweight, resonant alder body with a striking flamed maple veneer, providing exceptional comfort and rich tone, even when unplugged. The S7 FM shines when amplified, thanks to its versatile Sire Super-ST pickup configuration. The roasted hard maple neck and fingerboard ensure smooth playability, while the Sire Modern tremolo bridge offers superb sustain and tuning stability.

The S7 FM is equipped with two Sire Super-ST single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, and a coil-splittable humbucker in the bridge position. This pickup trio delivers a broad range of tones from snappy and spanky to sweet and singing, making it suitable for various styles, including funk, jazz, and hard rock. Whether you're looking for a clean tone or high-octane drive, this guitar handles it all with ease.

The roasted hard maple neck and fingerboard enhance resonance and playability. The neck’s rolled edges and medium-jumbo frets provide a comfortable playing experience, making it perfect for chording and lead runs. Guitarists appreciate the classic feel and responsiveness of the S7 FM neck.
