Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Mint
SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.
This Suhr Pete Thorn HSS Garnet Red (#77332) features an alder body in a Gloss Garnet Red finish, paired with a roasted maple neck and an ebony fingerboard (Pete Thorn 60's Soft V profile, 10"-14" compound radius, jumbo stainless steel frets). Driven by a Thornbucker II humbucker with a chrome window cover in the bridge and dual V63 single-coils in the neck and middle positions, it incorporates Suhr's SSCII silent single-coil system for noiseless operation. Hardware highlights include a Wilkinson WVS-130 locking-saddle bridge, Suhr locking tuners, and a 1.687" Tusq nut. Weighing 8.9 lbs, it includes a hardshell case and comes fully setup and ready for stage or studio action.
From John Suhr Guitars
The all-new Pete Thorn Standard HSS Signature has a new pickguard design, as well as a new Pete Thorn & John Suhr design pickup called the ‘Thornbucker II’. The cornerstone of all of Pete Thorn’s guitars is their unmatched versatility, attention to detail and tone.
“The super-comfortable all-new roasted maple Pete Thorn Signature 60s soft V-neck shape is like a blend of my favorite vintage ’64 and my favorite Suhr Classic S necks. The warm, clear, and ballsy sounding, all-new Thornbucker II humbucker integrates beautifully with the Suhr V63 single coils and versatile pickup switching. John and I worked really hard to perfect the look and flow of the new pick guard design and I chose some familiar and some brand new awesome colors. This guitar is a gigging players dream. Just like my two humbucker Signature model, this is a versatile tone machine with stunning looks, it's both classic and fresh.”
