Sabre Syren 6
You may not be familiar with the name, but Sabre has been making serious waves with its hand-built guitars since 2009. Now, the company’s new Stock Series brings its meticulous build quality to the masses, with prices starting from £979.
The good guys at Sabre have been kind enough to send the new Syren 6 down to us, so we thought we’d share some shots of this shred-ready axe.
For the full review of the Sabre Syren 6, check out Total Guitar issue 255, on sale 9 June.
