In a relatively short period of time, American Suhr electric guitars have gained a considerable reputation among top instrumentalists and all musicians with the highest demands for quality workmanship and sound.
The Classic S model is a classic double-cut (ST) model, which you certainly won't just let go of. The alder body of the instrument is covered with an ultra-thin layer of lacquer. Twenty-two Medium (.055 "x.090") stainless steel frets divide the maple fingerboard surface. The 60's C Vintage Standard maple neck profile and compound fingerboard radius (9-12 inches) contribute to the instrument's excellent playability. The combination of a Suhr SSV humbucker and two Suhr V60LP single-coil pickups with Alnico V Special magnets gives the guitar a superbly clean sound with a modern Strat fretboard "made by Suhr" - and thanks to SSCII technology, it's completely free of the characteristic annoying single-coil noise. Standard sound adjustments include a volume knob, two tone controls and a five-position pickup switch. Tuning stability, excellent sustain and fast string changes are guaranteed by the TusQ zero-fret string attachment in the company's 18:1 ratio locking gears and Gotoh 510 tremolo.
John Suhr has over 35 years of musical instrument building experience under his belt, during which time he has made a deep mark on the musical community with top-of-the-line "Pensa-Suhr" (as guitar builder) guitars and basses that have been played by Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, Peter Frampton, Lou Reed and many others in the 1980s, or as a Senior Master Builder in the Fender Custom Shop in the 1990s. However, John didn't have complete control over the entire manufacturing process, so in 1997 he decided to start his own Suhr brand. So you can be assured of the highest possible standards of quality when it comes to Suhr guitars, basses, instruments or pedal effects. Permanent clients of the Suhr brand include Peter Frampton, Michael Landau, Scott Henderson and Dough Aldrich.
The guitar is sold in BAZAAR VAT and comes with the original packaging (gig bag).
