Sound Pure's Take
The Trans Blue Denim/Slate is wonderful on this gorgeous Flame Maple Top !!!
John is a big fan of Maple on Basswood and this one's tone is a perfect example of why - clarity with strong mids.
I love Suhr's pickups, SSV/V60LP/SSH Plus combination is wonderful !!!
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.
