The NEW X Series from Sire Plus NEW High Spec S Series Guitars!

[@slawsonscot]

That opening solo from the captain was his best moment on here for me - masterpiece!

[@andertons]

Cheers Guys - credit to Pete for the awesome backing loop

[@DJBuglip]

Yeah bro, was just about to comment, the Jeff Beck dripping off that was tangible.

[@ilovejapanesemusic3858]

❤❤❤ I love a manufacturer that makes left-handed models!!!! The green one looks especially awesome 👍🏻

[@RareYogurtMale]

Lee can’t help but play that lick when he picks up a strat 😂

[@andertons]

Its all muscle memory :)

[@Joe-mz6dc]

Lee is a multimillionaire and he probably doesn't care LOL

[@k.l.graham5860]

The rise of Sire has been insane. Already looking at getting another bass from them!

[@joesatchton212]

That Pete signal path thing was genius. Pretty much what I sometimes hear in my head when people drone on and on about paths.... XD

[@mrmuttley]

Always funny when Lee picks up a pointy headstock guitar. "What am I supposed to do with this?" 😂

[@andertons]

Literally no clue - excessive use of the whammy bar is all I know

[@TheWorstManOnEarth]

Lee's playing transformation during all these years of playing guitar is pretty stunning.

[@oliverchapman51177]

I know right

[@andertons]

Cheers guys - I'm trying!

[@samhouse8922]

That green finish is a thing of beauty

[@GuitarZombie]

Captain has improved over the years

[@ak47dragunov]

Pete is such a tasty player. Knows exactly when to kick in the afterburners and play a crazy lick or go into a modal run just to remind you he's got chops to spare, but with great melodic sense. Reminds me a lot of Tim Pierce

[@grumpyrocker]

These look a lot like some Ibanez models that Cort probably made.

[@ericnicolleau4331]

This is literally a bad looking Ibanez RGT1220PB, they don't even get the specs right

[@narrowonflow]

💀💀💀

[@andertons]

Don't deny these sort of guitars all look alike, but Sire have their own factory - definately not made in the Cort factory like many brands are (not that theres anything wrong with that!!)

[@didamnesia3575]

Cort makes great guitars

[@beefysinglecut]

It sounds better than those brands. But idk about the playability & build quality.

[@JacobWard101]

Love the look of these! I have a Sire T3 and that's great so I can imagine these are amazing!

[@aubindrive1937]

the captain is getting better and better at soloing and its lovely to see

[@graysenm1320]

While I’m not a fan of the s type body style these guitars look and sound great. Fantastic works as always guy!

[@2Funky4me]

The 10 models look like the working man’s Suhr. Love it.

[@juancarlosgranados4425]

I agree, the Captain was on fire, and the tone was insane.

[@DJBuglip]

Your favorite one was mine as well, Cap'n. That's a gorgeous guitar.

[@layol692k7]

I love listening to the Captain talk serious about Gear and everyone at Andertons for real. I wish I could walk into their store someday as I live in the US I find my self watching every episode the put out. Cheers @Andertons Music Co

[@Luke_Ray16]

Corrrrr, Captain Lee with the chops

[@GavMcC7]

Dude Lee sounds GREAT!!!

[@grahamnunn8998]

These are pretty insane value for money and those are really great "grown-up" tones. I have absolutely no need for an 80s style shred machine but these are a pretty cool way to relive my youth!

[@RobertSaxy]

I appreciate the breakdown of how Pete handles the looper, I’ve got the headrush loopernboard that’s similar to the Sheeran looper just not as pro

[@TractorMonkeywithJL]

I slowed down the video to half speed so I could hear what Pete said about the signal chain.

[@taz4965]

Wow! Cap’n Lee on the whammy bar!😮

[@keithb5612]

I own a Sire S7 but I think I would probably go with a Vola at the Sire S10 price point.

[@mikehan3130]

I went by your store today. Very nice!

[@rebeccagarner2576]

I just passed up that green HSS for a PRS S2 with USA pickups… The PRS did not disappoint !!!! I have the Sire S7 already, and it sounds great!!

[@updem]

Chappers would have a field day with the X series

[@aribolel8216]

Should get Digital John in to show us the X series- he def knows how to use them!

[@j0pj0p]

🤖

[@regianalfarizi]

What’s wrong with sire when designing the X series headstock? The bottom part of it looks so weird 😂

[@marktemebel]

I would have liked Pete to play both the X guitars so we could hear the difference in pickups and construction. Realy like the blue one

[@robphillips8351]

Tasty phrasing both of you guys

[@mleahy555]

I had a good laugh at Pete's " Chipmunk " voice hahahhhaha

[@martinclayton7260]

Speeded up Pete sounds great!

[@philmus1]

Iron Maiden - Dave Murray, his own signature strat shaped thing (really thin neck, hot rails, Floyd Rose trem, locking nut), Janick Gers - vintage strat, Adrian Smith - His signature model of Jackson. Murray and Smith have used offset Gibsons in the past and both have gold top Les Pauls

[@piotrkamienowski3737]

this blue one 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@nitijr]

To be honest, the only thing keeping me from buying Sire guitars is the headstock shape! Apart from that, they have amazing instruments. The semi-hollow H7 guitars are a no-brainer. Got one.

[@chriscolabella880]

Agree entirely and I'm in exactly the same boat. It's hideous.

[@BOSSenjoyer]

They should do a neck-thru Mustang with metallic or flake finishes, pearl guards. Gotoh 510, stainless frets. Use the Fireball 25.

[@emptyMan0]

It's interesting how much better the Sire humbuckers sound compared to the Seymour Duncan ones.

[@Pulse2AM]

I like the X series, $599.00 US it's hard to find a shred guitar like that under $900.00 plus.

[@JackTheSkunk]

What I would really like to see grom these 2 demo masters is a blind test of 1X12 combo amps.....CLEAN settings only. I cannot be the only one that does not use distortion. Must include the Victory V4o Deluxe. 😅

[@Robstafarian]

I strongly advise going with a head and cab; too many combos come with crap speakers, and changing the speaker voids the warranty.

[@MGRockwell]

When are the SG's coming?

[@Johnnydeep92]

Captain please tell them to make a lefty x series 🙏🏼

[@Horseheadbookendz]

Lee turning into Uncle Joey on this one

[@dancrowe7860]

Now that, boys and girls, is how you clickbait a title.

[@AlexandarJL]

Great guitars! But that X5 headstock looks like something unfinished from, like when you buy the guitars in parts

[@tonycarel1785]

I going to take the time and look into this brand. Sounds like they are manufacturing right and pricing their basses and guitars even better. The fact that this company is taking the direction like Schecter. More for your money. Something Spector and ESP should be looking into

[@Robstafarian]

Schecter and ESP share an owner, hence the differentiation of their model lines.

[@seulgilee9033]

I am S7, TF7 owner. Sadly, Sire head design is super far more better when you look close. Not on the screen. On the screen, it look so ugly but when you see it like in front of you in 30cm, you will say "well, not bad.". So sad. 😢

[@TheDrunkenScoundrel]

Jumbo frets need to be on more guitars.....WAY more guitars.

[@diego6strings]

Lee learn some new licks for f*ck sake 🤣 kidding, not kidding... Great Job guys!

[@tymanngruter1808]

Please, try the lefties next time? 🤤

[@valendis]

NGL when I saw the video on my feed I though that was Chapman...

[@johnoakleymusic]

Please make more vids using just the chipmunk voice on Pete, that was hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@fantomas9240]

Well OK it's the answer if Sire to Harley Benton?

[@BCarpenter2314]

Are satin or non-gloss maple fingerboards a thing? Feel like i rarely see them

[@kingcopycat9945]

i want an hsh model or hh model that would be cool also i want a red sire s7 fm

[@TheDrunkenScoundrel]

Christ, the Borg have gotten to Pete......

[@Mr.Nabil.Belhaj]

The only problem with the X series is the position of the jack input. I hate that on every electric guitar

[@vansongs]

Not quite sure why, but that X10 just jumped out at me. I am an old man, but the brain is still 18 sometimes. ( a lot actually, sigh)

[@fishypaw]

Why on earth would they do a back angled headstock on the X series guitar. With the locking nut, it's absolutely not required, and is just a neck/headstock break waiting to happen. Nice guitars otherwise, but noway would I buy a strat style guitar with a back angled headstock.

[@1man1guitarletsgo]

At least no one's going to sue Sire for copying their headstock shapes...

[@MartinCraneRockbeast]

Is this a haribo ad?

[@iobeausipip]

When you gonna demo the Sire nylon ?

[@grungebob]

I can’t get past that lacquered fretboard or the weird headstock shape. I bet they sound and play great but us guitarists also play with our eyes and it’s a no from me.

[@vafunkoolers]

Not a LA style, it's Steely Dan style 🤩

[@SenseiKreese]

I'm a funk-metal guitarist. I mix funky James Brown guitar stuff with metal riffage, 90's kid. I absolutely love an SSS guitar - but only in the studio. Live I do everything on an Ibanez RG. But when I'm recording clean funky lines, I grab the SSS guitar. I've been wanting to buy an S5 or S7 for some time now. They look stellar. Right now my SSS is an old Samick Korean guitar I bought for almost nothing and had fixed up and modded a little. Plays and sounds great. Before that I was using a Japan Strat. The Samick sounds great, plays well after the fretwork and stuff, so I just sold the Fender. I only use it for recordings, sooo. That brown Sire there - it looks near identical to an Ibanez Premium RG. That has to be the same Indonesia factory.

[@aribolel8216]

I’ve bought a s7 and it’s arriving in a week. Will try update

[@SenseiKreese]

@@aribolel8216 Cool man, please do. It's always great to hear opinions that aren't guitar stores trying to sell you gear and reviewers who know if they criticize the product too much they'll lose the company sending them stuff.

[@timnotbrianmay]

STRATS!!!!!!!!!! THEY ABSOLUTELY, ALWAYS SOUNDS THE SAME, WHETHER THEY'RE A REAL FENDER, OR A KNOCKOFF!!!!!!!!!!

[@calebshelton9240]

I’d buy them if the headstock wasn’t hideous 😂

[@hyun6369]

But at this point, what is it with Larry ?

[@NoNameNo.5]

Where’s the Sire L3? The single P90, that’s what I wanna see

[@andertons]

Next Sire video!

[@gregorzinho]

New board for the Captain?

[@andertons]

Kind of - we actually shot this video a few weeks ago & I was using that board a lot at the time - theres a breakdown of the board build on my insta channel

[@stevem-h3562]

Are you guys gonna take a look at the L3 P90's any time soon?

[@andertons]

Yup - in the next Sire video

[@stevem-h3562]

@@andertons excellent, thank you!!

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

Are you aware there is an advert on Facebook to give away Marshalls for £8 through Andertons? Is it a scam?

[@uweborsch1946]

How could this be a scam?

[@bks252]

I’d say yes. I’ve seen the same thing saying Sweetwater was giving Les Pauls away with a Steve Via promotion. I contacted my sales guy at Sweetwater and he said absolutely and they are constantly working to remove those type scams.

[@PaulCooksStuff]

It's an imposter account, worded similar to theirs, but not theirs. Report it as a scam.

[@johnlyon6736]

I hear neck width is narrow on Sire

[@derekjohnson5720]

Are the pups on the s5 ceramic or alnico??

[@grahamtinkler4562]

I can't see it at over a grand!

[@AndreasCordesMusic]

I just can´t get used to these different looking headstocks.......ever! It´s weird

[@obgatson1275]

Helow,Mr Lee Mr.Peet,Mr Mason GOD BLESS,❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊

[@compucorder64]

What amp is Pete playing, is it that ENGL? Or the Marshall (Plexi)?

[@andertons]

He's in his Deputy I think

[@compucorder64]

​@@andertons Ah, awesome, that's for replying. I think those are Marshall style amps, which I guess would explain the oversized sound, relative to the Victory V40 Deluxe. I have the normal V40, and love it.

[@ragnakak]

Which Seymour Duncan set is used on that Green S10?

[@telekarma]

Thomann site says it's a Fortuna set. It's strange that there's no official info from Sire website.

[@Krullmatic]

$1200 for a Sire? They're taking a page out of Epiphone's handbook lol. They probably wil not sell a lot of these. With $1200 a person could buy a really nice brnad name guitar! A couple more hundred and you could have the American Performer Strat.

[@mace9770]

I’d be willing to bet they sell out. No comparison on quality with similar priced larger brands.

[@verspunken]

Only another 50 quid to get the Ibanez it's ripping off. They've gotten traction by being similar enough to Fender for much cheaper, but why would you buy this instead of an acual Ibanez RG?

[@pixelmachine]

I love Sire guitars, but the head on that X is god awful!!!

[@fusionfan6883]

Weird headstock design😵‍💫

[@Mr.Potato1962]

Sorry Captain Great PedalBoard Amp ,But No Buttom End , and Harsh High, But Pete with a Real Tube Amp as Buttom End and Natural HighFrequncy ! Please Stop Using that AMP... for Demo that don't Do Justice to Those Guitar.

[@Ren-X]

I just someone to be making a modern super J style guitar. So bored of one S type after another

[@bheater2615]

The really cool sounds would cost a small fortune too replicate sadly

[@MrJayscinema]

So Ibanez make some guitars to beat the strat……then sire make some guitars to copy the Ibanez that beat the strat………….in five years time are Sire going to make copies of their own copies!? 😂

[@tres311]

I get the Larry Carlton series, but is OR has Larry ever played a strat that looks anything like these super strats? You don’t have to put his name on every single guitar.

[@garbarek1078]

Wasn't valley arts a superstrat style guitar?

[@aleriklejuste]

I don't like Sire ... I tried to buy 2 L7 and had to send both. Never again

[@TrashM0nk95]

good god what an ugly headstock on that otherwise beautiful guitar Pete is playing. they should have just kept the regular sire head stock or made it slightly pointier at most.

[@rcoveyduc]
