The bends. Great guitar, but the string bends you do throughout just blew me away. I was captivated by where you were going to bend next. Such a graceful style you have. 🎸
I believe this video and review is the absolute best I have seen. I always enjoy your reviews but this one stands out. The T7 and you are a perfect match. What beautiful sounds you got out of this guitar. I'm planning on purchasing my own (in white) from Sweetwater. Thank you Jon for an excellent job.
This is such a nicely balanced Tele style guitar. Designed by one of my favorite guitarists and played in this video by another one of my favorite guitarists. And at $600 via Sweetwater you absolutely cannot lose.
Watching this video as part of my market research for my first electric… Beautiful guitar! I was told by a Sire rep that the lefty models should come out later this Summer. You showcased it his T7 very well. Thank you! I get the impression this gentleman could make a cereal box with strings on it sound good! Hahaha Wonderful playing, Sir!
Mine arrived from Sweetwater today and I absolutely love it I just had to go with Tobacco Sunburst because it’s beautiful with the Roasted Maple 🍁 neck 😊
One of the things I love about your videos is how you seamlessly go from mode to mode, pickup to pickup on the same track without pause. Makes the tonal differences stand out, plus hearing it with wonderful playing is a bonus too.
Great review ! Just bought the exact guitar. Absolutely LUV it ! What incredible value for the price. I was confident Larry wouldn't put his name on it if it wasn't up to his standards--and I was not disappointed !
I just got one. The neck is just amazing to play. At first I thought it was too fat but quickly realized it was awesome. I can play so fast on this and it really does sound great. I have one like here and I think it's beautiful to look at.
Excellent video. I like the way you play in different styles and show what the guitar can do. To many videos you see today reviewing guitars are all talk and taking them apart to look inside. And then either speed metal heavy distortion demos. Your talented playing sells the guitar with so few words.
A big fan of your tasteful music and great reviews. I retired 4 years ago and I decided to learn the guitar. I have now released my 46 th album on Bandcamp. Your reviews led me to a Mg 30, Sire S7, Harley Benton Fusion T HH. Thanks Great tone on the T7. Thanks for your inspiration.✌️🙏
That’s a classy Tele Jon, beautiful. I love that neck and the tones are perfect. You Look like you enjoyed playing it in that fantastic intro. very tempted, I have to say. 😍👍😄😄
Beautiful and spectacular intro. I’ve got this exact guitar on pre-order, and am patiently awaiting it’s projected delivery later in the year. In the meantime, I’ve got my recently acquired Schecter Nick Johnston HSS to keep me company.
Bonjour Jon! That guitar in your hands sounds so sweet but with character, looks amazing as well especially that lovely pick guard. Interesting to see a T style with Mr. ES335 name. Sire is taking the T to the future with all those improvements. I look forward to hearing your greetings in Spanish! Hasta el próximo video!
Put an $89.00 Harley Benton in Jon's hands or a $6000.00 Suhr either way Jon will make it sound like a million bucks ! Just a pleasure to watch and listen to him play... His effortless, tasteful style coupled with a great ear is simply a delight. Love he has the time to review all these guitars and make these informative videos for us all to enjoy but he should be on high demand as a player ! What's wrong with that picture ?? This Sire T7 is a beautiful looking guitar..loved the roasted maple neck with the rolled fretboard and locking tuners...ONLY thing I wish it had was 6 individual saddle bridge AND it weighed less. Oh well...ya can't have everything ! Still a beautiful instrument. 😉
The Sire T7 telecaster guitar you show is identical guitar to a telecaster guitar made by AXL guitars (not now in productioin) called a 'Player Deluxe'. If you are lucky to get hold of of AXL 'Player Deluxe' guitars both Telecasters and Stratacasters 'Player Deluxe' models you will see theyare top qualit guitars.
Sorry I do not… but you can get quite close to my free presets in this video ruclips.net/video/5FQqwYM946E/видео.htmlsi=lb6j5p5BiMAXRAYv I hope it helps
Really want one of these....sadly they are a bit heavy. They're about $640 USD now....All their guitars have rolled fretboards. Really nice. NAMM showed Sire's new guitars...S&T 5 and 10 series ! Oh La La !
Still...I have a 10lb HB Keith Richards Tribute Tele and even sitting down it's not a comfy instrument. Trying desperately to sell it. Truly have decided under 7.5lbs is my limit. @@JonIsJustTooLoud
I believe the Fender Telecaster he used on most of his recordings and live performances was a 1951 neck on a 1952 body. That's what he says on the Premier interview 8 years ago.
One thing that really winds me up about two-peice bodies without caps or veneers is they are almost never 2 equal peices, even expensive models can be this way, it wouldn't be so bad if they could find two peices of a similar colour and grain pattern but the cost of labour for that would probably be more than the cost of the difference of a one peice body
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Gotta say I received the T7 sunburst. It's a really nice well built guitar. The neck is so nice. I will put my own pickups in the guitar, it's a perfect platform to do so. Truly impressed.
Great playing! I have the exact same guitar in white, it's a lovely instrument, I pick it up more often then my Fender Strat, almost thinking of getting a S7 model too, they are sooo good!
I wish they would sell this in a flame maple top.......single coils. Their flame maple tele all have humbuckers. The roasted maple neck is beautiful. Also, I think Jon can make anything sounds good.....super talented!
Hi Jon, your channel is just amazing. Your play, have no words man, surreal!! may I just ask, for a newbie like me, would you suggest this one over a Fender Player? Or, over a G&L Tribute ASAT? Just an opinion if you have time. and if i can add, regarding a Strat, what would you consider suggesting, a S7? Squier CV? Fender Strat? Aware that for a newbiw any guitar would suffice, maybe a T3/S3 would suit better. I was also looking for the HB 25th Anniversary options as I saw your reviews.. Keep up the amazing content, cheers
Jon, Incredible playing as always. Just wondering how you would compare the T7 vs. the comparably priced G&L Tribute ASAT Classic and the Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic Alnico? Seems like the T7 has elements of both. Thanks.
Really nice playing. Love the guitar.But Larry Carlton and a Tele? I know that besides the 335 Larry played Strats but I don't think I have ever seen him with a Tele
Great player! Though some would say you not using your fourth finger on the neck hand is a handicap for lead playing, I don't see that with you. You play with soul and feel.👍
For me the problem with Sire Larry Carlton guitars is the price. Considering how they look, feel and play they are imo about £500-£600 too cheap. I have one of the Les Paul types and its a great guitar.
Jon great review and playing. That t7 is nice but doesn't sound so much like a tele to me Do you think if you swap the pick ups for classic tele pick ups you would get classic tele sound ? Tks
@@MrAntpre One of the fun things about Teles is tweaking the tones. So many pickup options, that can really change the sound. The first Teles didn't have the classic sounds that most of us identify with.
Congratulations for your french. Nice guitar for the price. I've already tried one. But I prefer smaller frets as we can get on classic fender's instruments. However, I wonder if Sire will decline its series with higher-end models as they did for their bass guitars. It could be very interesting.
Hey Jon what do you think was the better buy, this T7 or the T7FM with the Tremolo? I'm just really looking for something different, and I just can't decide. I love my S7 and I've been wanting a telle for a while.. If I don't get a L7 or a T7.. I've been thinking of a Duo Sonic
Hey Jon, I've been heavily considering the Sire lineup, particularly the L7 or T7 but since I can't try them out at my location I was wondering how does your T7 handle 60 cycle hum compared to the L7? Nice playing as always.
Hey Jonathan, do you like this one? I have thought about buying it and sending it to Glaser in Nashville to have his upgraded B-Bender into it. Maybe.. The cost of having one installed is $650 total and does it quick.
Two questions can you get your hands on the Larry Carlton T-3 and do a review please🤗 Also which Telecaster do you like or recommend that’s better.. The T-3, T-4, or the HB Paisley Black Telecaster?
They are both fabulous. I love my sire and love my g&l. Really about playing both and just choosing which one feels the part in your hands and pleases your ears
This video nailed it for me. Just bought a vintage white. Fantastic playing I may add.
Cool!!
Might be the best looking guitar I have ever seen. Exceptional playing also. I appreciate how you play different styles and compare all the tones.
Thank you✌️❤️
The bends. Great guitar, but the string bends you do throughout just blew me away. I was captivated by where you were going to bend next. Such a graceful style you have. 🎸
Glad you enjoyed it!

Sire makes beautiful guitars. We just recently did a Sire Larry Carlton ES-335 copy. It is gorgeous 😍.
Yes they are really nice!!
Lovely guitar played absolutely beautifully. I could watch you play that guitar for hours. Excellent video 😀👍🏻
Thank you very much!✌♥
the larry carlton series just sounds soooo amazing!

Best review I've seen yet on a T7! I'm a lefty and Sire offers all the colors in left hand. I'm gonna order the butterscotch blonde in left hand!
Nice✌️❤️

Cool style Jon. Like how you start with cool relaxed playing then climax to an awesome lead. Cool videos.
Glad you enjoyed it

True ✌️❤️
I have seen a lot of videos researching this guitar. Yours is the best !

Jon, I’m so glad I found your channel. Really enjoy your playing.
Glad you enjoy it! I hope you have subscribed! If you have.. welcome to the channel!!
What a gorgeous guitar. That neck just looks like its a pleasure to play. Sure glides well under your fingertips.
sure does! ✌💙

Great review and nice clean tone playing too. Sorely missed in most reviewers vids.
Thanks!
Impressive!

Beautiful looks beautiful sounds
Thank you✌️❤️
$515 Dollars USA at Thomann Music.. That finish looks great because it blends with the Roasted Maple Neck Fingerboard!

That’s a classy Tele Jon, beautiful.
I love that neck and the tones are perfect. You Look like you enjoyed playing it in that fantastic intro. very tempted, I have to say. 😍👍😄😄

Hahaha sure Hermano ✌️❤️
This is some of the tastiest demo playing I've seen in a long time.
I'm debating which finish to buy though.. butterscotch, sunburst or white 😅
lol have fun deciding!!
All my guitars are white so when a new one shows up management thinks it was there in the back of the closet 😂😂
Put an $89.00 Harley Benton in Jon's hands or a $6000.00 Suhr either way Jon will make it sound like a million bucks ! Just a pleasure to watch and listen to him play... His effortless, tasteful style coupled with a great ear is simply a delight. Love he has the time to review all these guitars and make these informative videos for us all to enjoy but he should be on high demand as a player !
What's wrong with that picture ??

Bonjour!! ✌♥
Gorgeous guitar and awesome playing Jon!
Thank you ✌️❤️
Nice playing as always, cheers. 👍👏

You sold me with yor playing

Great sound
thanks ✌❤
Félicitations pour ton français. Well done 👍
Merci~✌🤓
Perfect french. Félicitations
Merci ~✌️❤️
Wow, you can top load it!

Go for it ✌️❤️
just found your channel. Love your playing, its awesome !
Thank you✌️❤️
Fantastic Sound and playing!!!
Many thanks!!
Nice playing!
Thanks a lot!✌️❤️
I've worn the frets out on the guitar in my profile pic. If all goes well I'll have that t7 tomorrow. Haha Feels like Christmas eve.
Cool ✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Gotta say I received the T7 sunburst. It's a really nice well built guitar. The neck is so nice. I will put my own pickups in the guitar, it's a perfect platform to do so. Truly impressed.
I actually love the pickups in the t7 now, once I played for a few weeks. Really nice balanced pair.
Interesting guitar. Tempted.
Lol✌️❤️
Great guitar, but still waiting for ANY to be available on Sweetwater (they now currently have 26 Sire electric models, none of them in stock).
cool!✌
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Would be cool if any show up! I've been waiting since Christmas!
Andertons in the UK has some models. I just ordered one!
I love it!
✌️❤️
Très bon français mon ami.
Merci beaucoup✌️❤️
Thanks for the great video! is that an Orange crush 100 solid state in the background? looks and sounds amazing, too
Sure is!
Great playing! I have the exact same guitar in white, it's a lovely instrument, I pick it up more often then my Fender Strat, almost thinking of getting a S7 model too, they are sooo good!
Thank you.. yes they are ✌️❤️
I wish they would sell this in a flame maple top.......single coils. Their flame maple tele all have humbuckers. The roasted maple neck is beautiful.
Also, I think Jon can make anything sounds good.....super talented!
Thank you ✌♥
I liked the sound, but it didn't sound much like a telecaster to me. 3.8kg is also too much for me, so I'll stick with the Fenders tbh.
✌♥
Hi Jon, your channel is just amazing. Your play, have no words man, surreal!!
may I just ask, for a newbie like me, would you suggest this one over a Fender Player? Or, over a G&L Tribute ASAT? Just an opinion if you have time.

The T7 ✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Over the Fullerton Deluxe, wow, that is saying something. Thanks for your insights and incredible demos and reviews.
My G&L bluesboy came with the worst QC of any guitar I've ever brought, i hope it was just one bad apple though and not a common theme.
That’s a very good French pronunciation! Coming from a French viewer
Merci~✌️❤️
Ohhhh my g.... why would you want a fender if you can get this sire.
Thx mate again for a great video.
My pleasure ✌♥
Great video Jon! This thing sounds / looks great! Where do you rank it among the tele world???
i dont know that there's a rank...but it's like 70 out of 100
Really nice playing. Love the guitar.But Larry Carlton and a Tele? I know that besides the 335 Larry played Strats but I don't think I have ever seen him with a Tele
Like i've stated in the video ..he did. That picture of the yellow Tele (a 54) is his.
Great player! Though some would say you not using your fourth finger on the neck hand is a handicap for lead playing, I don't see that with you. You play with soul and feel.👍
Thank you!✌❤
Excellent Jonathan ! Your French is very good ! Do you speak French ? Love the guitar too ...
No no.. I’m really bad at French..Je massacre la langue hahaha
For me the problem with Sire Larry Carlton guitars is the price. Considering how they look, feel and play they are imo about £500-£600 too cheap. I have one of the Les Paul types and its a great guitar.
✌️❤️
On those clean sounds, what pedal do you use to get that shimmering reverb?
In the line 6 Native plugin✌♥
Jon great review and playing. That t7 is nice but doesn't sound so much like a tele to me Do you think if you swap the pick ups for classic tele pick ups you would get classic tele sound ? Tks
Yes you would with the right pickups, you’d get classic tele tones with modern feel which for some might Be the best of both worlds
I think its how you tweak and play.. I thought the pickups are really nice✌️❤️
Jon, they sound nice but I don't hear classic tele sound maybe from my end. lacking some mids on the neck pickup maybe ??
@@MrAntpre One of the fun things about Teles is tweaking the tones. So many pickup options, that can really change the sound. The first Teles didn't have the classic sounds that most of us identify with.
Congratulations for your french.
Nice guitar for the price. I've already tried one. But I prefer smaller frets as we can get on classic fender's instruments. However, I wonder if Sire will decline its series with higher-end models as they did for their bass guitars. It could be very interesting.
We will have to wait and see ✌️❤️
Hey Jon what do you think was the better buy, this T7 or the T7FM with the Tremolo?
I'm just really looking for something different, and I just can't decide. I love my S7 and I've been wanting a telle for a while.. If I don't get a L7 or a T7.. I've been thinking of a Duo Sonic
The T7FM
Hey Jon, I've been heavily considering the Sire lineup, particularly the L7 or T7 but since I can't try them out at my location I was wondering how does your T7 handle 60 cycle hum compared to the L7? Nice playing as always.
Guitars are not mine… both The L7 & T7FM are quieter as they have humbuckers. The T7 will have 60 cycle hum as they have single coils
Hey Jonathan, do you like this one? I have thought about buying it and sending it to Glaser in Nashville to have his upgraded B-Bender into it. Maybe.. The cost of having one installed is $650 total and does it quick.
It’s a great guitar TJ✌️❤️
Phenomenal video, as per usual.
But...you are doing damage to my bank account, sir. Shame on you! 😂
Lol..
Bravo pour le Français
Merci ~✌️❤️
What is your personal favorite this one or g&l tribute asat classic?
Tough choice.. actually I like them both
@@JonIsJustTooLoud on g&l because it MFD it very strong pickup output. Can it be more quiet by change volume/tone button or by press less on string?
Two questions can you get your hands on the Larry Carlton T-3 and do a review please🤗 Also which Telecaster do you like or recommend that’s better.. The T-3, T-4, or the HB Paisley Black Telecaster?
We’ll see✌️❤️
Great review Jon! Do you know if this model comes in a Left Handed Version? Thank you Sir. Cheers from Salem, Ohio USA.
I don’t know.. check their website ✌️❤️
This one or an Asat Special (Tribute) as a single one-does-it-all guitar? Anyone experience with both?
✌♥
They are both fabulous. I love my sire and love my g&l. Really about playing both and just choosing which one feels the part in your hands and pleases your ears
How does this compare to the schecter pt special?? Which should I get?!
Either one will do actually✌️❤️
