Very solid entry level telecaster
Stratguy77 06.11.2022
Bought this as my first tele, with the intention to mod the guitar if needed. Main selling points were 9,5-radius rosewood fretboard with rolled edges and Sire brand history (as they are praised for high value for money instruments).

After 2 weeks of playing:

Pros: sonic blue finish with mint green pickguard looks absolutely stunning. The satin neck has a carve similar to Fender modern C. Along with rolled edges it makes the guitar instantly playable with no effort at all. Mahogany body with a thick tele bridge plate resonates superbly. Very satisfied with the weight of the guitar, as mine is quite light. 3-way switch and pots feel excellent. Pickups are okay - very balanced, which is good for clean sounds. Bridge pickup is not too thin or tinny, you can play rock with it. But overall the pickups are not amazing.

Cons: the frets were terribly unpolished and had to be redone. Doing whole-step bends will make the strings go out of tune, and if bends are your thing, you need to buy locking tuners. My guitar had some tool marks on the headstock and some paint issues on the inlays.

Verdict: T3 is a very solid entry level telecaster. Rosewood fretboard with rolled edges is a feature usually seen on high-end guitars. 4,5/5 stars.

Unbelievable quality regardless of price point
lowveld 08.04.2024
I have a PRS Custom 24 SE, a Silver Sky SE, Gibson Les Paul Standard 60s and now this. This Sire is the only of them I had no doubt I would keep 5 minutes after picking it up on arrival. Flawless build, lightweight. the neck is just insane, all pickup positions very much usable.

I paid 324€ for this, I would have been happy if I paid 1324.
