Arguably one of the most recognizable guitar designs and a symbol of all things rock ’n’ roll, the S-style body is as iconic as it is flexible, adopted, and adapted by players across the pantheon of performance.
 
Sire’s Larry Carlton S5 was designed in collaboration with its namesake Grammy-winning guitarist, the legendary Larry Carlton, arming you with the time-tested tone and panache of renowned S-style instruments at a price point that requires a double take.
 
Its lightweight, resonant alder body offers incredible comfort for hours of performance with a rich tone that impresses even when unplugged. That said, this instrument was made for amplification. With three Sire LC Super-V pickups, the S5 is positively packed with sonic versatility that will fit just about any style, impressing Sweetwater’s gigging guitarists with its malleable yet distinctive tonal profile. A hard maple neck and matching Edgeless fingerboard offer smooth response and all-access playability, while a Sire S7V 2-post bridge delivers stellar sustain and tuning support with ample room for expression.
