The Sire Larry Carlton T3 electric guitar is a workhorse of a single-cut solidbody, ready to take on both the stage and the studio! This versatile 6-string’s mahogany body delivers a warm, rich tonal foundation for the spank and sparkle of the dual Sire Standard-T pickups — a combination that rounds off some of the shrill treble that can sometimes occur on twangy vintage-style single-coils. On the opposite end, the Larry Carlton T3’s hard maple neck is topped with a traditional rosewood fingerboard, then carved into a “C” profile to please players of all hand sizes. Finally, the neck’s smooth rolled fretboard edges, medium-jumbo frets, and modern 9.5-inch radius facilitate all manner of fingerboard technicality with a high-performance edge. If you’re after superior sonics and effortless playability at a budget-friendly price point, then it’s tough to beat the Sire Larry Carlton T3!
Mahogany body for enhanced tonal warmth
Sweetwater carries a vast variety of single-cut solidbodies, but it’s a surprisingly rare occurrence for one of these instruments to depart from the typical alder or ash construction. The Sire Larry Carlton T3 defies this particular sonic convention with a lightweight mahogany body, imparting a warmer, rounder feel to this guitar’s tonal profile. It’s a perfect complement to the natural chime of the dual single-coils, smoothing out some of the high end while still retaining perfect note-to-note clarity.
