Sire X6

I’ve heard the Sire X6 trem to be stable from two reviews by now.

I play my x6 more than my axis and Lespaul supreme…. It holds tune really well though. Overall quality is incredible. Fretwork is excellent. No issues with the nut. Stock pickups are surprisingly pretty good. Only QC issue I found was the side dots are a bit sloppy in terms of edge finish

X6 is a pretty unique guitar, since: - multiscale - tremolo - under $1k … simply doesn’t give you any other contenders.

Parent context: Not for small hands i guess. Ibanez Q 52 or Ichi 10 for smaller hands Reply: Why wouldn’t it be for small hands? The neck on this I think is thinner than the Q series. I had that as well but it’s been a minute. I’m pretty sure this is smaller.

Just got this sire x6 yesterday. 5.6 lbs on this one. Swapped to my normal 9-46 strings, lubricated the contact points and its rock solid even with vai and satch tunes. Nice low action at 1-1.25mm without buzzing, perfect fret ends, stock pickups surprisingly good, side dots could be finished a bit better but no other flaws. Blown away. I’ve had several vaders, steinberger, and strandberg and I enjoy this one the most.

It's really light, and while the fanned frets looked intimidating... Most of the time, it's pretty intuitive and the neck is comfortable. ... given it versatility straight out of the box, now I don't even consider changing pickups on it. ... I think it's a honest instrument for its price tag

For the mentioned specs you have very few choices, the next in price is the Sire X6 at $700

I have the Sire, the best guitar I have owned yet. ... the Sire pickups sounds good, and it’s quarter the price of a Strandberg. I don’t know anything about Hils guitars unfortunately, but the Sire I can 100% recommend

sire would be the good 0ick better quality and better pickup

I bought the X6, I really like it. I haven’t tried a Hils yet. The neck is lovely, I have trans black, which I like. The bridge seems like it’s good quality
