Key features
- Comfort and elegance – Sire’s Edgeless™ fretboard design features rolled, smoothened edges for a superior feel and playing experience.
- The versatility of the P90 – P90 pickups deliver a warmer, thicker sound that lends itself to a myriad of different musical genres.
- Wraparound bridge setup – The sustain and resonance of the L3 P90 electric guitar is significantly boosted by the inclusion of a wraparound tailpiece.
Powered by a soapbar
The Sire Larry Carlton L3 P90, as the name suggests, comes loaded with a single P90 ‘soapbar’ pickup at the bridge, which is so-called on account of its thick, rounded rectangular dimensions. These pickups are known to produce a thicker, edgier sound that is perfect for playing alternative, punk, country and blues genres.
Improved sustain and resonance
Like the Larry Carlton L3 range of electric guitars, the L3 P90 range features 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.
