I love this guitar so much that I sold my Gibson Les Paul Lite! This guitar sounds better, feels better, and even looks better! I got the gold top and it is so amazing! I would buy it again in a heartbeat! I really love the single P90. If you're in the market for an all around good rocking guitar, grab this thing! You won't be disappointed!

I'm 72 years old and I've never seen fit and finish at this level for a guitar at this price! I've rocked plenty of the best of many brands and this is right up there! Larry Carlton either went down to the crossroads or he knows aliens!!!!

Solid rock machine for$400, totally feels like a much higher guitar! It feels better than Epiphone new $1200-1500 guitars! Every one better take notice, there’s a new king in town and its name is Sire!!
Sound
The P-90s are a little trebly but after you dial it in, it can play anything, from Waylon to AC-DC!
Features
Bone nut, rolled edges and rosewood fretboard ant this price is unheard, it’s really nice!
Ease of Use
It dials in great, it’s a CB little trebly at first but I was very pleased
Quality
Everything was above and beyond, feels like a much more expensive product, very happy with this product
Value
Above and beyond
Manufacturer Support
Yes I have 6 Sire guitar, out of nearly 40 guitars, Fender, Gibson, PRS, Schecter and Epiphone, Taylor, Martin, Squire, these Sires hold there own

"Great build quality, But..."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

I purchased this guitar in the cherry finish. Beautiful woodgrain, color, fit and finish. But the P90 was so noisey I could not find a position where the pickup would be free of noise and hum.I ended up using a direct box to eliminate the hum, but it sucked the life out of the pickup and sound.To make this a PERFECT single pickup guitar, Sire should use a noiseless/stacked P90 pickup.
