Sire Larry Carlton J3 Electric Guitar, Vintage White

A Traditional Offset with a Few Modern Touches

Steeped in traditional styling with a few modern flourishes, the Sire Larry Carlton J3 embodies everything offset aficionados love about their favorite asymmetrical axes. You’ll appreciate the contoured comfort provided by the J3’s offset-waist, JM-shaped body, which is carved from a solid hunk of mahogany. This solidbody electric guitar’s “C”-shape hard maple neck is a pleasure to wrap your hand around, and its 22-fret, 9.5-inch-radius fingerboard with rolled edges assures you a slick playability that’s second to none. The J3 churns out a range of tones, from bright and twangy to thick and syrupy, by way of its LC Standard JM-style single-coil pickups. You’ll also revel in the expressive maneuverability of this guitar’s standard 2-post tremolo. The J3 comes ready to rumble with a bone nut, die-cast tuners, gleaming chrome hardware, and a classic-style pickguard. Are you searching for a classy offset with a playful disposition? If so, you’ll get endless mileage out of the Sire J3.

Head-turning offset mahogany body
Carved from a solid slab of mahogany, Sweetwater guitarists have discovered the J3’s classic JM-shaped body is ready for the spotlight. Mahogany offers a delightfully resonant acoustic sound with excellent sustain. When you plug in, you’ll appreciate how ergonomic this axe feels; from stem to stern, this offset beauty is an alt-rock aficionado’s dream come true. The Sire J3 comes equipped with LC Standard JM-style pickups. These multifaceted single-coils deliver bright, glassy tones — especially from the bridge pickup — and thick-as-molasses tones by the truckload. This electric guitar also includes a 3-way pickup toggle switch, along with global volume and tone controls, for added tonal versatility.

Comfortable playability
One thing’s for sure: the J3 was built to be played. Its “C”-shape hard maple neck plays like a dream, and its 22-fret, 9.5-inch-radius fingerboard, which includes smooth rolled edges, facilitates fleet-fingered fretboard maneuvers like nothing else. The J3 includes a bone nut and reliable die-cast tuners.
