2020s Sire T3 Tele-Style Electric Guitar
This is just what it looks like -- a very straightforward, Tele-style, copycat guitar made by Sire and featuring a Larry Carlton endorsement. I would consider it about on par with a nicer-quality Squier but it's not at the quality level of a Fender Mexico instrument. It does have some extra amenities -- a curvier access to the upper frets at the cutaway, for instance -- and slick looks in its cream-and-mint finish -- however.
The handling is mentioned as "modern" in their writeup and that's true to an extent -- the frets are bigger and the neck is a quick C -- but it has a nice "retro" board radius of 9 1/2" and the standard, '60s/'70s Fender-style 1 5/8" nut width.
Repairs included: a setup.

Condition notes: it's almost "as new" except for a ding in the side (pictured) on the bass-lower-bout area. There's minor playwear on the pickguard and handling wear aside from that.
It comes with: sorry, no case.
