2020s Sire S3 Strat-Style Electric Guitar

This is exactly what it looks like -- a Sire take on a Strat with a SSH pickup configuration -- with the Larry Carlton endorsement at the headstock. It has a curvier contour on the rear for the treble body cutaway than a normal Strat-style guitar, the controls are minimized (thankee, gods), and it has a modern, 2-point bridge (also, thankee gods) which allows easier raising/lower action overall. There are some well-thought-out changes to the normal copycat palette. This is about on par with a nicer-grade Squier but not at the level of a Fender Mexico instrument.
