      @@jitsroller the narrower neck took just a bit to get accustomed to but other than that it’s all business every time I pick it up. Equally great clean-ish or with some heat on it. The neck is flawless, and I have found no reason to swap out the pickups either. Mine is in the heritage red finish and it’s gorgeous.

      @Rich Firyn thanks. I bought the t7. My only complaint, I play daily, and in 8 months I've worn the frets more than I'd expect. I'll have to do something about it within a year or so. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Other than that the guitar is great. Awesome neck.

    Very early days for the Shads sound.
    Hank has his brand new Strat still through his 'Selmer Coloseum' amp. Joe Brown hadn't introduced him to the 'echo box' yet.
    Bruce is playing his Grimshaw through an early AC15 TV front and has yet to try the Jazzmaster and Telecaster before settling on a Strat too.
    Jet is playing his 'famous Framus' bass also through an AC15.
    So this is probably late 1959 or very early 1960.

    Sire is offering very cool instruments.
    Like that these pups have built-in the higher frequencies and clarity, as it's easier to dial in bottom frequencies with amp and fx than it is to Dial in clarity and higher frequencies imo.
    Looks very cool as well.

    Not just good but GREAT playing as always Jonathon! I got the same color in H7V with P90's. After hearing your playing there was no way I was going to pass on this one! The only difference I added a Seymour Duncan P90 Antiquity in the bridge for a bit more punch. Beautifully made and crafted without a single flaw, and yeah I checked. It's become my favorite too, not because it's new but because it really does sound that darn good. It's more expressive for me playing than all my the guitars. The warmth of a hollow body to me is important too and this one delivers! It IS just as thick and rich as my full hollow body Gretsch's too!

      The H7 with the P90’s has the larger nut width.
      It sounds good too, but I have no idea as to the reason that Sire went with a wider nut on the H7 with P90’s.
      Would be interested in knowing the reason Sire made them different though.

    I Got my cherry red Sire H7 last week .
    I have two other guitars : a Fender American deluxe strat -2008, and an Ibanez az premium , I find myself picking up the Sire more often . It’s built beautifully and the fit and finish is easily on par with my other guitars . The fretwork is probably even better than my strat and the rolled fretboard edges are super comfortable. I will blindly recommend this instrument to anybody looking for a good value for money mid range electric .
    I love the overdrive tones that you’re using and it certainly inspires me to start venturing into overdrive territory with this guitar !

    These are amazing guitars, especially for the price. I got an awesome deal on mine a couple months ago. 20% off coupon from Musicians Friend and then when they went to ship it, they found out they only had one left at a local guitar center but it was an open box. I made them give me an additional 10% off and the store was close enough for me to pick it up in person, and inspect it first. It was in perfect condition. The only issue was a few days after getting it home, the input jack screw came loose and the jack fell into the body. I could not get it back out to save my life. I paid a guitar shop to get it back out for $20 so no biggie. I definitely keep an eye on it now though.

    I have done some research. Old H7 models came with narrow 40mm nut, recent models have 43mm nut.
    There were several complaints regarding nut being too narrow, so this is most probably the reason.
    I am searching for 335 style guitar with thick neck and 42mm nut, but maybe the new Sire H7 could be my choice - maybe that edgeless fretboard gives 43mm nut guitar a 42mm feel…:) - Jon, what do you think?

    These are the guitars I recommend for small handed people because of the narrow fretboard (40mm nut instead of a more standard 43) but I - with very large hands - enjoy playing it as well. Just not forming a standard 3-string "A" chord on that 2nd fret! But this is why God invented 5th fret A's... B7s and E's... "just find them, mid-fretboard instead."

    Had 4 issues with mine and returned it. Issues included being unable to have set up even professionally and even after proper truss rod adjustment. Frets are not even though they look amazing. Guitar needs to be pleked, at least this one did and that is $300. Or refiled and crowned. Add to it the pickup cavities were not large enough for the pickups to sit in properly however the guys @ Guitar Center routed these out for me. Also the tailpieces had to be replaced as it was slicing up e strings and sanding the e string hole didn't resolve the issue either. Also, the input jack decided to unloosen and fall in the body. If you find this acceptable (I did not) go for it, I find this to be horrible on a $700 guitar and most of my guitars are easily 2k+

    bet the pickups on the H7 sound better than the stock pickups on a Gibson 335. These less expensive alternatives literally have te same wood and components. When you pay more you’re just paying for the brand. I’d pick an H7 over Gibson any day and wouldn’t have to swap pickups!

    Hi all, I received my H7 this morning around 11:00. It's now noon and I'm about to return it. Why? That's a cheap guitar and you get what you can expect for that price. The instrument is rather well built - the assembly and finish are (very) good. No complains here. However, its playability is quite poor and it really sounds like a... cheap guitar! The notes coming from the low-end strings (E,A,D) are totaly undefined. I tried to change the height of the pickups but I couldn't get ride of that ugly/buzzy/muddied sound. The width of the neck (at headstock) is also ridiculous. Way too narrow! A really wierd profile. I think I've been fooled by reviews from (paid/endorsed) youtubers'. Greetings from France.

I do maintain that what I received (yesterday) is an average cheap guitar that could hardly fit an intermediate player's needs. I'm a bit fed up these marketing tricks.
