I've got the SIRE T3 in the studio today!
Like the S3 this one is an incredible guitar for the money!
Enjoy :)

Us budget buyers owe a debt of gratitude to channels like yours and McKnight's KYG! Your suggestions on improvement and innovation have many smaller companies listening, and we budget buyers are reaping the benefits! Thank you Darrell for your time and talent. Play On!🔥🎸

I’ve never seen you smile more than when you’re doing these Sire reviews. Being a Sire T7 owner myself, I can totally understand why.

[johnyamahakeyboard]

I see so many people complain about the headstocks on these budget guitars, saying their ugly because it doesn’t look like it’s Fender equivalent. Why does it matter, in your own home it won’t make a difference, and many should know in a crowd it might as well mean nothing. You don’t get guitars to look nice, you get them to play/learn music and express yourself through an instrument.

[marcanglin]

I really like watching your videos, Darrell, and one of the key reasons is your playing during the "clean" portion of your vids. Nothing at all to complain about when you use overdrive, but your voicing, chord progressions and lead lines are just SO matched to the style of guitar/pickup combo that you are showcasing--so much better than most other gear channels on YT--that you really show the guitars in their best possible light. Perhaps it is your superior playing ability, but your natural "feel" definitely brings out the best in each instrument. Great work !!!

I just got my Sire T3 earlier this week, same color. I agree, for $399…what a guitar! Plays great and it sounded great at worship team rehearsal last night.

[joermnyc]

Gotta say, whomever is designing their T and S style pickups, good job nailing the TONE you’d expect. This T-style reminds me of the tone of the Fender MIM Player Tele’s AlNiCo V pickups (and the Player Tele costs more than twice as much as this.)

[rexrathtar]

Sire have brought so much to the table with this innovative design.

[kylebaker]

This is an absolute steal for value! As a tele guy and a bit of a fender snob, I truly think sire blew this one out of the park. This guitar is definitely better than my player series tele. With my son getting interested in playing guitar, I think the sire would be a great first guitar for him. Been planning on buying him one, if I can ever find one lol. Thanks for the great review!

[gergemall]

He looks like a kid in the candy store, or a child opening the present of Christmas. He look so excited and pleased with that guitar. Thanks for the review.

Just got a vintage white one. It starts with the way Sire packs up their stuff. Solid and safe. Attention to detail and finish is evident. Action on guitar was very high and like all have said frets and fretboard need a bit of break in. After that it’s solid with a darker tone like Larry wanted. Three way selector knob is cheap but an easy replacement.
Looks really nice along side my Sire L7v. Now waiting for gig bag stock to come back.

I am indebted to you Darrell for your hard work in researching all those guitars, you are the greatest man!!!

[reeling-in]

Looks good, sounds good and played expertly. Fantastic informative review! Thanks!!

[SegundoPisoOficial]

[ianrose]

Fantastic reviews thanks for doing this type of work

[fmando]

This is unbelievable value for this guitar. $400 guitar that needs no upgrades, ready to gig out of the box! Thanks Darrell. Great review, as usual.

[tredogzs]

Sounds great, the middle position so great!

[marksr]

Great review! Sire offers a lot of bang for your bucks, that's for sure! Nice Tele.

[carlkerkman]

Sounds great, thanks for the in depth review!
