Sound Pure's Take

Weight: 7.4 lbs.

Condition: Used, Very Good

Opening the case to reveal this beast of a guitar was a truly breathtaking experience. The .800"-.850" modern elliptical is an incredibly comfortable neck, and with the moderns (as well as Suhr in general) being known for great playability, this is absolutely not an exception. Tonally, the guitar is throaty and tight and absolutely sings in the upper register. The incredible playability combined with the expressiveness of Suhr's pickups makes for a top-notch combination.
