Sound Pure's Take

Weight 7.7 Lbs

Hoo-boy! If this one doesn't get your attention right away, we don't know what will. The transparent purple on an incredible flame top really makes this one pop. Guaranteed to turn heads!

Plugged in, this guitar sounds unbelievable. You're getting some of the girth of your favorite mahogany bodied singlecuts, but with the clarity and precision you'd expect from a superstrat styled guitar. You can absolutely get tight, percussive dirty rhythm tones out of this one as well as get a very clear, singing, sustaining lead tone with ease. Like every Modern, the playability is second to none; fret access from the first fret all the way to the 24th is a breeze and the guitar nearly plays itself.

This one's really special; check it out before it's too late!

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.
