A very piano like tone with amazing clarity.

Same as John Suhr's personal instrument but with the SSC II, Silent Single Coil System added - for those of us who have to stand under neon "Beverage" signs when we play  :)

Manufacturer's Description from John Suhr

Classic T Antique

Our customers have asked for an instrument that has a vintage look and feel, without sacrificing playability and tone. Enter the Classic T 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. The Classic Antique now includes: our innovative SSCII (Silent Single-Coil) hum cancelling system, and a vintage tinted nitrocellulose neck with stainless steel frets.
