Larry Carlton S7 3TS New Gen LH

Larry Carlton S7 3TS New Gen LH review

The Larry Carlton S7 3TS New Gen LH is a left-handed, six-string electric guitar in an ST-style design. Its listed price is $699, and it has been available since September 2025. The specification sheet describes an alder body, a maple neck and fingerboard, three single-coil pickups, and a tremolo system. Those details make its basic design clear, though they do not establish how it sounds or feels in use.

There are no customer reviews available for this product. This assessment is therefore based only on the supplied specifications. It cannot confirm build quality, tuning stability, setup, or tonal performance.

Body, neck, and dimensions

The body is made from alder, with a bolt-on maple neck and maple fingerboard. The neck has a C profile, dot inlays, and a compound fingerboard radius that changes from 9.5 inches to 14 inches. The listed scale length is 25.5 inches, and the nut measures 1.65 inches wide. These measurements describe a full-scale instrument with a fingerboard radius that becomes flatter toward the upper frets. Whether that geometry suits a particular player depends on hand size, technique, and preferred setup.

The guitar has 22 medium jumbo frets. The nut is a Graph Tech Tusq XL model, while the tuning machines are Sire Premium locking machine heads. The specification identifies the hardware as chrome. It does not state the fret material, neck finish, body finish, or the guitar's weight.

Pickups and controls

The pickup system consists of three Sire LC Super-ST single-coil pickups, arranged in an SSS configuration. Volume and tone controls provide the stated basic adjustments, and a five-way switch selects pickup combinations. The specifications do not list the exact switching positions, control layout, pickup output, or any wiring options beyond that five-way selector.

Single-coil pickups and a five-way switch are common elements of this style of guitar, but the parts list alone cannot predict the instrument's sound. There is no supplied frequency response, output measurement, or description of the pickups' character. Buyers should treat any expectation about brightness, noise, or output as unverified until they can hear the guitar themselves.

Tremolo and included items

A Sire modern tremolo is included. The available information does not specify its construction, range of movement, or whether the guitar ships with a particular setup. It also does not explain how the tremolo is adjusted or maintained. That limits what can be concluded about tuning behavior or suitability for extensive pitch changes.

Neither a case nor a gig bag is included according to the listing. Buyers who need protection for transport should account for a separate purchase. The listed sales unit is one guitar.

Color and specification details

The product information contains two color descriptions. One field says "Tobacco," while the detailed specifications give "3-Tone Sunburst." These entries may refer to the same finish, but the provided data does not confirm that. Check the retailer's product images or ask the seller to verify the finish before ordering if the exact appearance matters.

The sheet also identifies this as a left-handed model. That distinction is important: the supplied specifications do not describe a right-handed version or confirm whether one is included in the same listing. The product number is 611262.

What the specifications support

On paper, the S7 3TS New Gen LH combines a traditional body and pickup layout with specific modern appointments, including locking tuning machines, a compound-radius fingerboard, and a Tusq XL nut. The alder body, maple neck, 25.5-inch scale, and 22-fret layout are clearly stated. The listed price is $699, but the data provides no comparison with competing models and no evidence about long-term reliability or performance.

That makes this a useful specification sheet, not a substitute for a hands-on evaluation. Before buying, confirm the finish description, ask about the initial setup, and check whether a suitable left-handed instrument is available for a trial. With no customer feedback supplied, claims about comfort, sound, fretwork, or tuning stability would go beyond the evidence.
