Sound Pure's Take
Weight: 8.15 lbs.
It's your classic "S" style guitar with a twist. Modern appointments adorn this killer guitar. Visually, two things jump out at you. The versatile Thornbucker in the bridge and the great playing/feeling roasted maple neck with satin finish. The 9-12 compound radius fingerboard complements the 60's C Vintage .810-.930 neck shape. Suhr's proprietary silent single coil system (SSCII) keeps things quiet while rocking out with the ML neck and middle pickups. It just doesn't get any better than this. This is the Pro's "go-to" guitar!
From John Suhr Guitars
The Suhr Classic is a nod to the iconic double cutaway shape that has embodied Rock and Blues music for decades. The Classic retains this vintage vibe while adding modern improvements to meet the needs of today’s players.
The improved headstock design enhances tuning stability, eliminating the need for a string tree. The optional side input jack moves the instrument cable out of the way for effortless tremolo use. Frets are Plek leveled and hand dressed for superior playability.
From vintage quack to grinding blues to soaring lead tones, the Suhr Classic delivers every time.
