Sire Larry Carlton S7 vs Ibanez AZ Prestige

For my Presets visit: https://johnnathancordy.gumroad.com/ https://redir.love/thocf/5zairdej93 here's an affiliate link for Thomann if you were thinking of grabbing a Sire....

Right, so I guess the fairer comparison would be between a Sire Larry Carlton S7 and something like an Ibanez AZ Premium 224 as they're made in the same part of the world and are both 22 fret HSS guitars. However, this Ibanez AZ 2402 came up for sale nearby and is the PRESTIGE model i.e. japan built and in theory the superior built version of the premium stuff? Anyway, I was quite excited to play them side by side and hopefully put the Sire Larry Carlton S7 into context with a proper high end super strat that costs three times the price.

The bass that I bought (I occasionally need a bass) after researching stuff at the lower end of the price range and speaking to bassists ended up being a Sire Marcus Miller 5 string. Since I was very impressed with that as an instrument, when Sire announced the Larry Carlton series, I was intrigued to try them out. Here I bought a Larry Carlton S7 (super strat - think Suhr, Ibanez AZ etc?) - and this is my thoughts after playing for a day - is it any good?
