PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE
Here's another gorgeous Suhr Standard Legacy! It's based on the original guitar that John Suhr built for himself in the 80's. The guitar is stunningly beautiful and oozes of high-quality and meticulous attention to detail.
It's a hot-rodded shredder's dream through and through, this guitar. The neck is slim, the fretwork and overall construction allow for freakishly low action, and the tone is absolutely incendiary. The EMG active pickups absolutely wail and they're going to be thoroughly rock-ready. But don't worry, they aren't one-trick ponies by any stretch of the imagination either. You can dial them back and get some really nice clean tones as well.
Everything you'd expect out of a hand-made and high-end Suhr guitar is abundantly present in this one.
