The Sire S7 electric guitar, priced at $650, offers impressive build quality and features for its price point, including a stunning roasted maple fingerboard, two-point tremolo, and locking tuners.
Some design choices, such as the gloss finish on the fingerboard and the color of the pearl inlays, may not appeal to all players. The gloss could wear out quickly with heavy use, and the inlays could be more visible.
Despite its impressive ergonomics and design, I find the guitar's tone disappointing, almost high-pitched and glassy compared to the warmer tone of a G&L Tribute Legacy.
Some minor factory-induced scratches and polishing marks reveal that the Sire S7 isn't a premium guitar, but these are deemed acceptable given the price point.
While the Sire S7 has superior playability and aesthetics, I'm trading it for a PRS SE Custom due to a personal preference for a different tonal quality.
I recommend potential buyers consider both ergonomics and sound in their purchase decision.
