Description

With a comfortable C-shape neck, versatile Sire Basic-ST pickups and a classic tremolo bridge, it gives beginners and developing players a familiar feel and a wide range of usable tones at a price that makes real quality more accessible.
Built from solid tonewoods and featuring Sire’s Edgeless rolled fretboard edges, the S1 is made to be easy on the hands and reliable for everyday practice, lessons and first gigs. Whether you are learning your first chords or exploring lead playing, this guitar is designed to grow with you and keep you playing for longer.
Comfortable, Player-Friendly Neck
The S1 features a hard maple neck with a comfortable C-shape profile, giving you a familiar, easy-to-hold feel that suits most hand sizes. Combined with the 25.5 inch scale length and 9.5 inch fingerboard radius, it offers a smooth balance between chord comfort and lead playability, helping beginners progress faster without fighting the instrument.
Edgeless Rosewood Fingerboard
Sire’s Rosewood Edgeless fingerboard uses rolled fretboard edges to remove any sharp or harsh feeling along the sides of the neck. This makes sliding up and down the neck noticeably smoother and more comfortable, especially for newer players still building up finger strength and technique.
Versatile S-Style Electronics
Equipped with the Sire Basic-ST pickup set and a 5-way lever switch, the S1 delivers a range of classic S-style tones, from bright and cutting to warmer, more rounded sounds. Simple volume and tone controls keep things intuitive, so you can focus on playing while still having enough tonal flexibility for different songs and styles.
Reliable Hardware for Everyday Use
The S1 uses a Sire Standard Tremolo Bridge with a traditional 6-screw design and Sire Basic diecasting tuners, all finished in chrome. This setup provides a familiar feel for vibrato and pitch bends while offering stable tuning and dependable performance for daily practice and rehearsals.
