Sound Pure's Take
This is one of the best playing Suhrs we've ever seen!! You could play this guitar with your right arm tied behind your back and be happy. Perfection, clarity, inspiration, articulation, and expression are all present in this wonderful guitar and you will have no problem playing any style of music on it. Like everything John Suhr has ever sent us, this spectacular guitar plays like a dream, sounds incredible, and feels like your new best friend in terms of comfort. And talk about a classy look too!!
From John Suhr Guitars
The 2018 Modern Plus features a brand new roasted maple neck with pau ferro or maple fingerboard. The Modern Plus retains many of the original specifications of the Modern Pro including the sleek elliptical neck profile, balanced asymmetrical body, innovative neck heel and stunning flame maple top. Proprietary Suhr locking tuners and the Gotoh 510 tremolo provides superior tuning stability.
