Build & Materials

• The H7 features a semi-hollow double-cut body with maple top and maple back/sides, and a solid centre block of maple, giving the instrument a familiar “ES-335 style” structure. 

• The neck is mahogany, set-neck construction, with a roll-edge ebony fingerboard and 12″ radius, medium jumbo frets. 

• Binding, top-notch hardware (Tune‐o‐Matic bridge, stop tailpiece, premium die-cast tuners) make it feel like more than a budget instrument. 

• Finish & styling: In the White version (which you asked about) you get the white gloss body + gold hardware and classy aesthetics,

Playability & Feel

• Many people think the neck is very comfortable: the rolled fretboard edges and ebony feel contribute to a premium playing experience. 

• As a semi-hollow design, it has a nice acoustic resonance when unplugged 

Tone & Electronics

• The pickup set is the “Larry Carlton Vintage” humbucker set (voiced for jazz/blues/rock) — in many reviews, these humbuckers deliver a smooth, articulate tone, especially useful for clean or lightly driven styles.

• The semi-hollow body plus centre-block gives a nice balance: you get some warmth and character of hollow/semi body guitars, but more sustain and less feedback issues than fully hollow equivalents.

Who it’s good for

• Players who want the semi-hollow “335-style” aesthetic and tone without spending several thousands of pounds.

• Jazz, blues, rock players who appreciate a warm neck pickup tone, and want a comfortable neck with premium touches for the money.

• Intermediate to advanced players who are comfortable doing a minor setup or know their preferred spec (or can get it set up by a tech).

• Anyone looking for a guitar that “looks the part” and sounds very usable in gigging / recording contexts, but at a far more accessible price than high-end brands.
  

The Sire Larry Carlton H7  is a stellar value guitar that delivers many premium features: comfortable neck, quality materials, great tone, excellent looks , all at a price point that undercuts many competitors. For what you’re paying, it offers “more guitar than you’d expect”.
