I hope this is retirement level income for Larry Carlton. Such an illustrious career and so many sacrifices along the way. It would be great for him to maybe sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labors of so many years. In part, I'm getting a Cherry Sunburst H7 to pay back in some small way all the blessings his music has been during the course of the last 40 years or more of my life. God bless Larry Carlton and Sire guitars. Maybe, just maybe, I'll finally be able to learn all of "Room 335"...
@@BabylonMister If I could save enough pennies, I'd get a black one for BB King, a white one (like his 355) AND a Tobacco Sunburst for Alex Lifeson and the Cherry Sunburst for Larry Carlton. "National Treasure" is a perfect description. I like it!
I fear his health is really failing and he's one of my all time favorite players. His left hand seems like it was shaking uncontrollably. He's such a class act and a trooper and is just one of the all time greats. I genuinely hope he's doing well but this video really kinda hurts me to watch a little.
I've watched as my father has slowed down and has very similar hand shaking. Aging is part of life. I know I don't have a lot of time left with my father. When you get into your 80s, life is a different game.
Could have been nerves from being filmed, wanting to get it right. He is a gift to us all, hopefully all it is. Anyway, these Sire guitars are amazing. The rolled frets are incredible. I’ve got the l7v and looking to get a T7 also. I’ve got plenty of high end stuff that I’ll probably get rid of and replace with these. The overseas productions are getting so much better and rival the domestically made guitars at 4 to 5 times the price. What a great time to be a musician/guitarist!
I''ve owned an H7 for almost a year. The only flaw I could find is that the G string is slightly sharp on the first few frets, but that can be fixed filing the nut some more. It played great out of the box, but I adjusted the setup to where I like it, and it really plays as good as anything. I A/B'd with a $3000 Gibson 335, and I liked the Sire's pickups more. The neck of the H7 is thinner than your standard 335, so could be an issue for fans of big necks. I honestly bought it expecting to have to change the tuners, pickups, bridge... but I really didn't have to. Stays in tune great, sounds great, feels great. Fret leveling and fret dressing is great. Definitely a great guitar for anyone who wants a 335 style guitar without breaking the bank.
I was on the fence about getting one of these, so reading your review on it has definitely pushed me towards getting it. Especially considering the vast amount of gear you have as a session guitarist, I'll take your word for it! 👍
@@alvaromendez5454 yeah! I can do some more filing on the nut to be honest. But thats the only flaw. First few frets are a tad sharp when open strings are tuned. But thats it! Everything else is great!
I've been using mine for almost a year now. Yes, the G string was sharp at the first 2 frets on mine. I had it adjusted and the intonation is fine now. This guitar covers the many styles I play, Latin, Jazz standards, dance, blues among others. I got it after watching and researching as much as I could, especially with Mr. 335 endorsements! What was discussed in the video has been my experience as well. The playability suits my hands with ease and comfort. It's a keeper!.
Such a great guy and what a legendary player. When I was young I had the chance to chat with him on the phone and he was super encouraging. His best advice was - play what you love. Find your voice and go for it. I'd be proud to own one of those!
He is putting affordable guitars in to new players hands both he and Marcus Miller are taking keeping live music alive for the next generation. Something Gibson and Fender forgot years ago
Thank you mr. Carlton. I live in Italy and i bought the beautiful H7, cherry sunburst. I own also Gibson and Eastman, and i must say that the H 7 sounds very well, a professional guitar. Thank you Sire and mr.Carlton
One thing I’ve never heard highlighted on the H7 is that the distance between the bridge and the tailpiece is bigger than a standard 335. I think that’s because Larry’s ‘69 was converted from a trapeze tailpiece and Sire used those specs. Not sure. Regardless, I like how comfortable it is to rest my palm on the bridge and how easy it is to bend notes because of the longer string length from the bridge to the tailpiece. Thank you, Mr. Carlton and Sire.
lARRY AND i PLAYED TOGETHER IN A A BAND IN THE 60TH AND I'VED ALWAYS THOUGHT HE WOULD BECOME SOMEONE WHO WOULD REALLY MAKE IT IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS. HE WAS REALLY GOOD AT 17 YEARS OLD AND I REALLY DID ENJOY HIS PLAYING BACK IN OUR YOUNG DAYS. lARRY IS ONE OF THE BEST AND I SURE WOULD LOVE TO SEE HIM AGAIN AFTER ALL THESE YEARS THAT WE PLAYED TOGETHER. I WISH HIM WELL AND I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND I HOPE HE KEEPS PLAYING THAT GUITAR THAT HE LOVES TO DO. GOD BLESS YOU LARRY AND I HOPE SOMEDAY SOON WE CAN TALK TO ONE ANOTHER AGAIN. MUCH LOVE TO YOU AND EVERYONE LOVES YOU A LOT. lOVE JIMMY STALLINGS.
I got my Sire S7 vintage about a month ago. It sounds so nice and feels amazing to play. The only thing that was off about it was some of the frets were not 100% polished. Of course that was an easy fix up and now it plays better than some $1,500 guitars.
One of my main influences by way of early Michael Franks albums. Superb voice on the instrument. Love seeing him. I'd love to try one of these guitars! Love and light.
I got mine a few months back and I love it. Mine is the same red as the one Larry is playing in this video. I got it and my Katana Artist amp , both from Sweetwater. They sound awesome together. Jay, my sales rep, was a great help in my decision to get them. I couldn't be happier.
I find it interesting that a low-cost guitar comes standard with bound F holes, while Gibson uses black felt pen to paint over bare wood. How much more would it cost Gibson to put binding on the F holes of a $3,000 guitar? Budget brands do it for a whole lot less. It's the little touches that show craftsmanship. It's also the little touches that show a lack of craftsmanship. I have a beautiful Gibson ES-359 that has black pain or felt pen over the bare wood of the F holes. In the days of lasers and CNC machines, this is no longer acceptable.
Thank you Sire and Larry! Been playing USA Gibson and Fender for 34 years. The quality of this guitar is so good. I love this guitar. I'm proud to play this guitar live....and it's very fun.
kudos to Sire for great instruments at a very reasonable price. awesome collab with Larry. I love my Sire P7 5 string bass and am seriously tempted to get one of these!
Larry loves this, doesn't he? Larry Carlton and Marcus Miller was Just total Pro Move as a Business decision. Because it is Just cool having him present all Guitars under his name. And that Name is an effin' Legend
That guitar is as awesome as Larry himself. And amazing is it isn’t as expensive as other guitars that would play at the same level. At the price that Sweetwater has it at is literally a steal.
I bought the H7 from Sweetwater and it's the best hollow body I've ever played...and that includes PRS, Gibson's 335, 339, 347. And, these guitars are very affordable. Larry did us a favor by insisting his name go on an instrument with quality at a reasonable price.
Thanks Larry!🎶🎸🎼! So far I have the H7, L7, and the T7. It appears that you have switched up the S7. Sweetwater discontinued the S7, then it reappeared in almost the exact same configuration... That was confusing. But I may still try to get one of the new issue model.
I bought one today with P90's exact same colour at Andertons in the UK, no plan to buy, but it forced me, also tried the HB version, the bridge on the HB was nicer to my ears, but the P90 neck swung it, tbf my Band is Rock and Indy so not going to suit, but about to do a more Blues and Rock n Roll project so this ideal, I bought my Son a Sire Bass, I am lucky I can afford the big names, but this does what I need and sounds beautiful, my Squirrels Gone song ideal for it, Good Health Larry.
Mitch! You do such a great job and having Larry on for an interview to talk about his amazing Sire guitars is the bomb. Just got a new l7v and thinking about selling some of my vintage guitars to load up with the rest of the Sire line. The icing on the cake are the tapered pot controls both volume and tone. Such a pleasure to use! I usually don’t touch the controls and use wide open but not on this guitar. Very useable. Would love to see a Sire factory tour maybe with Larry walking through the process and his involvement? Thanks for this!
Love the H7v , but i wish the neck had a satin finish like the L7v's. Aint gonna buy me another 335 style guitar and sand the neck again like my other ones. But its a great guitar, wider neck wich i like , p90's sound awesome and open and maple body wich gives more punch. So i'm waiting for a H7Tv ( with the trem) and a satin neck, that would be perfect.
Gibson owner here. Just got ahold of a Sire H7V (p90’s) and I wanted to leave a comment in case anybody was on the fence with these guitars. Buy one. Now. Right now… before somebody catches on and starts charging $2500 for them. I’m generally a USA made snob with guitars. I do like Epiphones, and Ibanez etc but I’m always the first one crashing the Epiphone comment sections saying “ya’ll are hilarious, epiphones are a great value but the feel is what makes a Gibson and ya’ll are buggin” Well guess what? This feels like a Gibson neck. I have my H7V sitting right next to my 2023 Gibson Les Paul Standard 60’s, and I’m telling you right now that blindfolded you couldn’t feel a difference between the two necks. Other than them being different profiles. That’s something I never thought I’d ever hear myself say in regards to a guitar less that $3000. This thing feels 2x better than an epiphone. I am beyond blown away by this thing. Blindfolded you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between this and a Gibson ES335. I’m not joking… And the p90’s changed my life. I’m gonna end up putting p90’s in everything now 😂 These H7’s are the best thing since sliced bread. Deadass.
I ordered a Sire H7 for my cruise ship. And it just won’t stay there no tune. I can’t figure it out. The intonation is perfect. It feels great. Put none of the 6 guitarist on the ship can figure out why it came constantly goes out of tune.
Changes in humidity levels? The bone nut definitely needs good lubrication and I added locking tuners to mine (which I think has helped) but, outside of that, could it be changing humidity conditions?
I'm sure it's a nice guitar, but the fact of the matter is that you could put a broomstick in Larry Carlton's hands and he'd still sound incredible. Larry Carlton is one of the greatest guitar players in the world.
Sire: "We want to make high quality guitars at low prices so that everyone can get one." Also Sire: *makes such low quantity that nobody can get one* 💀
Yeah, it took a while to get mine but I think they were being really conservative watching demand unfold and now they're experiencing the classic rarity creates demand syndrome - crazy given the price point - and some slips getting through. Mine had just a bit of spray gun spittle on the back of the neck near the heal but given the overall build quality, tone, and perfect vintage burst job on just as perfect flame top I overlooked that.
Grande chitarra ma il capotasto da 40 è per le mie dita troppo stretto per gli accordi di primo manico che risultano difficili. Sicuramente la H7v col capotasto da 43 ha superato questo problema. Peccato però che i p90 non sono per me preferiti.
Looks like he develops some neurological disease. His hands are shaking badly. It might be Parkinson's... I think this is the real reason of his retirement, not a tiredness of touring. Everything has its end... It's so sad. He was and still is one of my very favorite guitarists of all time. Saw him Live at least 10 times, including the tour with Lukather. Be well, dear Mr. 335
Ugh. Makes me sad that for a few pieces of silver he’d sell his reputation. (“The guitar wasn’t even set up.” Lol. Imagine how that make his guitar tech and guitar techs in general feel)

Agreed. Remember that he had a near fatal gunshot attack back 40 years ago, maybe there is some neurological issue based on that.
Its climate change. Nothing to do with the ...

Guitar looks fantastic......my only concern is the width of the neck. The strings might be a little too close together for fingerstyle players.
Father time has caught up with Mr. Carlton.
I had no idea his hands were shaking like that. Very hard to see one of your favorite players diminish.
Very cool... !! do you make a lefty version??
I was very excited to buy the h7. Went to Sweetwater and found they aren't made for lefties. Hopefully they will.
I ordered a Sire H7 for my cruise ship. And it just won’t stay there no tune. I can’t figure it out. The intonation is perfect. It feels great. Put none of the 6 guitarist on the ship can figure out why it came constantly goes out of tune.
Put some graphite pencil dust into the nut and bridge slots. Often helps with the tuning on new guitars.
Changes in humidity levels? The bone nut definitely needs good lubrication and I added locking tuners to mine (which I think has helped) but, outside of that, could it be changing humidity conditions?
Conditions at sea are ever changing so definitely affects the humidity content of the wood.
@@carlosrivera-pj1qu it was Merle burrs on the bridge. I filed them down a bit and now it’s playing great!

If Larry I'd happy to play them live everyone should be.
Makes me want to get one!
Great tones!
It is possible to find a H7v in red ?
Wish it really is this kind of "red" .
I bought one 😊
Looking forward to watch Mr. Harley Benton playing technique and tricks:-7
Is it true that the H7 (not H7v) nut is still 40 mm wide (june 2023)
P90’s are a nice addition
I love me some P-90 tone
Oh man you know it! :). P-90's FTW!!!! Best Regards and Best Wishes!
Yep, mine is all that! Beat a Casino I A/B'ed it against hands down for my needs.

I'm a HUGE Larry Carlton fan. I'm a little concerned in the shaking hands. Early Parkinson's ?
Looks like he develops some neurological disease. His hands are shaking badly. It might be Parkinson's... I think this is the real reason of his retirement, not a tiredness of touring.
Everything has its end... It's so sad.
He was and still is one of my very favorite guitarists of all time. Saw him Live at least 10 times, including the tour with Lukather.
Be well, dear Mr. 335
He looks very frail these days but wow what a player
No sound
