Sire Larry Carlton L7 New Gen – Black / Gold – Excellent Condition

For sale is my Sire Larry Carlton L7 New Gen in Black, the latest upgraded version of Sire’s Larry Carlton single-cut model.

This is the current-generation L7 featuring a number of significant improvements over the previous model, including stainless steel frets, ebony Edgeless fingerboard, Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut, upgraded LC Vintage-2 pickups and premium locking tuners.

It’s a seriously impressive single-cut guitar for the money and the black finish, ivory binding and gold hardware give this particular version a classic Custom-style appearance.

Condition

The guitar is in excellent / near-mint condition and has been very well looked after.

I’ve inspected it carefully and can’t find any significant dents, chips or scratches to highlight. The high-gloss black finish naturally shows fingerprints, dust and very fine handling marks under strong light, but I can’t see anything I’d regard as notable damage or wear.

Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description — I’ve tried to photograph the guitar clearly from multiple angles rather than hide anything.

Everything works exactly as it should and the guitar is ready to play.

Collection / Courier

Collection is preferred.

I’d much rather the guitar be collected in person than risk shipping an instrument unnecessarily.

If you’re further away, I’m also happy to work with a buyer who wants to arrange and pay for their own insured courier. I’ll make the guitar available for collection and cooperate with the arrangements, but the buyer would be responsible for organising the courier and for the instrument while in transit.

Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like any additional photographs
