NGD: Suhr Classic Antique (soon with Thornbucker + bridge in nickel)

Post by null_pointer »

Here's some quick photos before I drop it off to the loothier for some review and installation of the Thornbucker (yeah its an easy swap but with the SSC+ etc plus a potential push/pull split I'll leave it to the pro this time).

Crappy initial photos, too much light and it looks paler than it actually is, but I'll update once the Thornbucker is in.

Shame about the relic. And the colour.

Those pickups are different to the ones in the Classic Pro, right?

I'll be interested in your views on how the single coils compare, once you get to play it.

Not trying to bolster my flagging libido, but it definitely feels the best of all the Suhrs I've had. Really looking forward to giving it a thrash on the Thornbucker + with the BE OD going at full noise.

These guitars look super good. From a more predominant LP played I think I could dig one of these..
