Description

Brand-new to the L series, the Sire Larry Carlton L3 HH combines the style of a 50s guitar with double humbucker pickups for a powerful and sophisticated playing experience that won’t break the bank. Featuring a lightweight Mahogany body and a neck shape that is tailored for comfort, the L3 HH is ideally suited to players who like to explore.

Key features

  • Comfort and elegance – Sire’s Edgeless™ fretboard design features rolled, smoothened edges for a superior feel and playing experience.
  • Twin humbuckers – Two LC Standard humbucker pickups power the sound of the L3 HH, producing a warm sound with reduced noise.
  • Wraparound bridge setup – The sustain and resonance of the L3 HH electric guitar is significantly boosted by the inclusion of a wraparound tailpiece.

A powerful pair of humbucker pickups

As the ‘HH’ of the name suggests, the pickup configuration on the Sire Larry Calrton L3 HH consists of twin LC Standard humbuckers. Not only do these produce a warm and powerful sound, humbuckers are also known for their ability to reduce noise, allowing players to enjoy a clean and crisp tone.

Improved sustain and resonance

The Larry Carlton L3 range of electric guitars sport a wraparound bridge, a tailpiece unit that allows strings to go over the curved side of the bridge all the way to the tuners. This type of bridge helps to boost the sustain and resonance, which aids the creation of solid tones.

Comfortable and easy to play

Thanks to Sire’s Edgeless™ fingerboard design, the rolled, smoothened edges enable your hand to glide effortlessly up and down the beautiful Rosewood fretboard with assured precision. The set-in, C-shaped Mahogany neck feels majestic and is topped off with accurate, stable and reliable chrome tuners.
