What a steal!
After years of playing an ESP LTD EC-1000 and an ESP LTD TE-1000, I decided to try something completely different and picked up a Sire Larry Carlton I5S during Thomann's Guitar Days for 444 euros. I'm blown away!
For this price, the spec sheet is ridiculous:
- Stainless steel frets
- Roasted maple neck and fingerboard
- Two-point tremolo
- HSS configuration
- Push-push coil split on the humbucker
- Locking tuners
What really sold me, though, is the design. It has a compact single-cut body that feels closer to a Les Paul, but with the scale length, neck profile and ergonomics of a Strat or Tele. For me, that's the best of both worlds.
The only downside for me personally, and this is just a cosmetic preference, is that I had to swap the stock cream pickup covers for black ones and the cream Vol/Tone buttons for silver chrome dome knobs., and I think it really suits the guitar. I don't really understand why Sire chose cream covers, it ruins its aesthetic.
I genuinely can't believe what Sire managed to pack into a guitar at this price point. If someone handed me this without telling me the price, I'd have guessed it cost significantly more.
