Where Versatility Meets Vintage Vibes for the Modern Player
The new S5 HSS is an HSS-style version of the 2024 S5 model. This bears the HSS pickup configuration to deliver more versatile tones. Its covered humbucker pairs seamlessly with single-coil pickups, offering a balanced and dynamic sound suitable for a wide range of playing styles. It is also considered a rare find following its price range.

SIRE LC SUPER-V PICKUP SET (HSS)
The Sire LC Super-V Pickup Set features a versatile HSS configuration, with a humbucker in the bridge position for powerful, punchy tones and noise reduction, paired with two single coils for crisp, articulate sounds. This combination offers the best of both worlds, delivering the warmth and sustain of a humbucker and the clarity and brightness of single-coils. The 5-way lever switch allows for seamless transitions between pickup settings, giving you the flexibility to explore a wide range of tonal possibilities for any style.

SIRE S SHAPE BODY
The traditional S-style body made of North American Alder connected to a C-shaped hard Maple neck with Edgeless™ fretboard for comfort and playability.

S7V 2-POST BRIDGE WITH CHROME HARDWARE FINISH
The S7V 2-post bridge with steel block and bent saddles ensures improved sustain, tuning stability, and accurate intonation, while the chrome hardware finish enhances durability and adds a sleek, modern aesthetic. Together, they provide reliable performance and a polished look, ideal for consistent playability and long-lasting use.
