PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE
Here's a Suhr that's too cool for school. Check out this beautiful Classic JM with a pair of SSV humbucking pickups! This one's in a classic Black finish.
If you're looking at this, chances are you're already familiar with the impeccable reputation that Suhr have built for themselves over the years. Known for their high-end boutique hot-rodded guitars, the craftsmanship and playability of these guitars is unparalleled. If you're looking for something that will be reminiscent of that classic '60s offset you've always wanted, but want something even better than you ever imagined - well, you can stop your search right here.
The SSV humbucking pickups are vintage-style humbuckers at their core with an extra shot of added clarity and brightness that especially shines through in this format of guitar. It can handle clean and distorted tones with ease, and will provide you with a bit more low-mid oomph compared to the S90-equipped JM model. This axe beautifully toes the line between vintage and modern tones.
Add the supremely functional Suhr locking tuners, an excellent recessed Tune-O-Matic bridge that provides excellent intonation and stability, a contoured heel and other contemporary appointments and improvements, this Classic JM is vintage sound meets modern playability all wrapped up in a beautiful package.
Details
Who doesn’t love its big, bold, sweeping shape? While giving the nod back to another era, the Suhr Classic JM starts with a sleeker, more refined body shape and adds enhancements to playability previously unattainable to the guitarist interested in a truly vibe-y guitar.
The Classic JM Pro offers options for a Gotoh 510 Tremolo that sounds great, and stays in tune with excellent intonation. Or, if you prefer, you can have a recessed TonePros tune-o-matic bridge with strings that pass through the body for super resonant performance. We also offer your choice of either two huge sounding but hum free S90 pickups or two Suhr SSV humbucking pickups with a low profile three way pickup selector.
Ideal for blues, blues-rock, classic rock and jazz, the S90 pickups have the power and richness of humbuckers coupled with the clarity and sparkle of classic single-coil pickups. Our Active SSCII system is included with any S90 equipped Classic JM Pro. It offers transparent noise cancelation and if the 9V battery dies in mid-performance, not to worry. The guitar will continue to function as normal, minus the noise cancelation.
