Sound Pure's Take

This is one of the most versatile guitars that Suhr makes due to the pickup configuration. Whatever style of music you're playing, this JM will deliver huge tones and definition with the highest playability on the market. 

From John Suhr Guitars

Ian Thornley is best known as the lead singer and guitarist for multi-platinum selling hard rock outfits Big Wreck and Thornley. He has been using Suhr Classics, Standards and Ts for the last few years and, after playing the Classic JM prototype, he decided that it was the guitar he wanted to call his own.
 
Ian’s Signature Classic JM features a custom Ian Thornley “V” back neck, jumbo stainless frets, matching painted headstock, HSH pickup configuration, series/parallel switching on the pickups and your choice of tremolo or hardtail bridge.
