What We Think

Condition: Used, Great - Wear and checking consistent with relicing process

Weight: 7.05 lbs.

This 21-fret, vintage-inspired Classic Antique is an incredible example of Suhr's excellence with their guitars. Articulate and precise, this guitar also has one of the fattest sounding low E strings we've ever heard on a Suhr Classic. Truly resonant, this guitar sings and nearly plays itself! 

Manufacturer's Description from John Suhr

The Classic Antique now includes: our innovative SSCII (Silent Single-Coil) hum cancelling system, a vintage tinted nitrocellulose neck with stainless steel frets, and a Maple fingerboard option.

Our customers have asked for an instrument that has a vintage look and feel, without sacrificing playability and tone. Enter the Classic Antique™. We designed this guitar to ensure it preserves the spirit of a vintage instrument while performing like a Suhr. Impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail ensure that every neck pocket is tight, every fret is perfectly dressed, and that every instrument is ready for peak performance before leaving our facility.

The nitro-cellulose lacquer finish and our proprietary antiquing process make each Classic Antique™ feel like it has been loved for years.
