Sound Pure's Take

Weight: 8.5 lbs.

Essentially a super "S" design trapped in a T-style body this piece is really a wonder to play. Its silky single coils will dish out everything from sublime cleans to smokey overdrives and barking leads. If this is not hot enough for you the Thornbucker in the bridge will certainly spice up the mix enough for your taste. The Thornbucker screams with delight when given a heavy gain signal to sink its teeth into, and maintains a smooth and controllable tone for those soaring leads. I really dig the middle and bridge positions in tandem on this one, they hit a sonic home run pushing a smooth but powerful tone. This guitar is the modern approach to the Classic T. Not to mention its sweet Pau Ferro stylings will keep you looking for years to come!  

From John Suhr Guitars

The Suhr Classic T evokes the electric guitar that started it all. Digitized from an original '52 slab body, the Classic T combines legendary design with modern improvements. Frets are Plek leveled and hand dressed for superior playability. The optional body contours improve player comfort while also reducing weight. The improved headstock design enhances tuning stability, eliminating the need for a string tree. The combination of quality tonewoods and Suhr pickups give the Classic T a familiar voice. From Classic Twang to rowdy Rock & Roll, the Classic T is a crowd pleaser that will never go out of style.
