Overview
SOULFUL TONES IN A LIGHTWEIGHT PACKAGE
The Sire's L5 model gives the elegant '50s guitar vibe that can be found in higher tiered gears. It produces the most natural and clean sound resonating from Swamp Ash and Maple wood combination. It has a light profile suited best for traveling players who are into ballads, jazz, and pop genres.
LC LIPSTICK TUBE SINGLE COIL PICKUPS SET (S-S-S)
Lipstick-shaped 3 single-coil pickups configuration creating an aesthetic and sonic impact, producing a clear and twangy sound. Combining the three of them cancels the familiar hum produced by a single-coil.

The TOM bridge with string thru body design promotes increased sustain throughout the guitar, improving tone, and resonance. More Sustain allows notes to sound audible for longer duration.
SIRE L5 BODY
A redesigned single-cut body made of Swamp Ash, a wood material historically known to produce natural sound, combined with the Edgeless hard Maple neck for more fun plays.

"Great differant kinda sounding guitar!!!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
Great neck,weight,and intonation is on!!!All I had to do is let it settle in and played straight from the box.Later I lowered the action and that's all I had to do!Frets are smooth and level,but will of course treat fret board and polish frets as I always do.You get the strat sounds through out and still get a comfortable dirty sound with your pedals.Never new lipstick pickups were so universal!Very satisfied!!!
