PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE
We're proud to present this beautiful Suhr Classic S in an squeaky clean Surf Green with Indian rosewood fingerboard combination!
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 old-school S-type you had back in the day but want it to play and sound like a completely revitalized high-end instrument - well, you can stop your search right here.
The silent (that's right! No more messy 60-cycle hum!) single-coil circuitry allows you to retain 100% of that genuine single coil sound without any of the noise. The V60LP pickups are very much voiced to replicate vintage tones and they do an amazing job of recreating that sound. But the beauty here is that the only noise coming out of your guitar will be music that you are creating. You can isolate any of the pickups without ever worrying about added hiss.
Add the supremely functional Suhr locking tuners, fantastic Gotoh 510 2-point tremolo, contoured heel and other contemporary appointments and improvements, this Classic is vintage sound meets modern playability all wrapped up in a classy-as-heck pretty package.
