Sound Pure's Take
Weight: 7.4 Lbs
I'll be honest - one of my favorite things about working at SoundPure is getting to order these incredible guitars and dream them up from scratch. That being said, I'm confident that when ordering a Modern for myself, it'd be identical to this one.
Opening the case, you'll find the Inca Silver with covered Thornbuckers and roasted neck is sleek, elegant and sexy. The guitar is light, toneful and resonant, and plugging it in only accentuates these things. Crisp and clear, there's no tone you can't get from this guitar. Pair that with a comfy elliptical neck and the incredible fretwork Suhr is well known for, this guitar will never leave you wanting.
This one is really special - don't let it pass you by!
From John Suhr Guitars
The Suhr Modern features: a balanced asymmetrical body, a 24 fret elliptical neck profile, and innovative neck heel.
The innovative Suhr Modern is our high-performance take on the 24 fret design. From the speed and precision of Fusion to the pounding rhythms of Metal, the Modern is designed to deliver on every level.
With its sleek elliptical neck profile, balanced asymmetrical body, and innovative neck heel, the Modern delivers unmatched playability and comfort. Top quality wood selection and lustrous finishes make the Modern as stunning to look at as it is to play.
Quality tonewoods and Suhr pickups ensure the Modern is never short on tone. If the ultimate in performance and beauty is what you are after, look no further than the Suhr Modern.
Basswood:
Native to Asia, Europe, and North America, Basswood gained prominence as a favored tone wood for shredders in the 1980’s. It is light in color and weight with almost no grain pattern. It is best suited for solid colors or as a backing wood for a figured top. Basswood bodies have a fat, well-balanced tone that produces smooth sounds without any hard edges.
