Suhr Guitars is an American-based guitar brand, beloved as a symbol of modern high-end guitars.
Greg Howe and Mateus Asato are known to be loyal fans of the brand.
Suhr founder John Suhr began his career at the renowned New York guitar shop Rudy's, and went on to gain acclaim for his work designing amplifiers at CAE and as a master builder at Fender.
It goes without saying that he also achieved great things with his own brand, Suhr Guitars, which he later founded.
This model is the John Suhr Signature STANDARD.
It bears the name of John Suhr and embodies his ideals.
Combining exceptional playability, clear tone, and meticulous craftsmanship, this model represents the culmination of all of Suhr Guitars' technology and experience.
The body and neck are crafted from White Limba (Korina), said to be Suhr's favorite wood.
The chambered body further enhances the White Limba's natural sweetness in the mid- and high-range.
Aesthetically, the Trans Red finish highlights the wood grain, combined with scraped binding and a painted Bakelite pickguard, creates a sophisticated and eye-catching appearance.
The fingerboard is made of Pau Ferro wood with a 10-14 inch compound radius.
The compound radius is rounded in the lower positions and flatter in the higher positions.
Generally, a rounded fingerboard radius provides good playability, but is prone to choking in the higher positions.
The compound radius solves this problem.
The Even C Slim neck shape, jumbo frets, unique heel treatment, and PLEK fret dress ensure excellent playability in all positions.
The pickups are SSV in the neck position, V60LP in the middle position, and SSH+ in the bridge position in an HSH configuration.
The half-tone position of the 5-way selector allows you to coil-tap the humbucker while mixing it with the middle single-coil.
The middle position also outputs the neck and bridge humbuckers simultaneously.
All positions are hum-canceling, delivering a clear sound with little noise.
The tuning machines are Suhr Locking, and the bridge is a Wilkinson WVS130 Locking Bridge.
This hybrid design offers tuning stability comparable to a locking tremolo unit, while the playing feel is closer to a two-point support tremolo unit.
Boasting extremely high levels of refinement and reliability, this guitar is the culmination of John Suhr's work.
