Re: Show Us Your Guitar
I would like to try a Suhr one day, just to see how it compares to a Fender one, what do you find are the main differences??
How can I be sure I'm here?

Re: Show Us Your Guitar
I prefer the necks on the suhrs over fenders And overall finish seems to be alot more consistent with the suhr. Also love the suhr pups. They just seem to feel like home for me

Re: Show Us Your Guitar
Yeah you're not looking at a mass produced product so they can probably spend a lot more time and effort on that finishing, altho' you'd expect for the cost they should

Re: Show Us Your Guitar
For me, the Suhrs win on the pickups (just better, and quiet) and the trem (more stable but still great vintage tone).

Re: Show Us Your Guitar
Very nice, I love the look both of those suhrs, I got myself a Thornbucker plus recently and I'm going to try suhr wiring on a partscaster, I'm not usually into new guitars myself, but when I ran the racks of suhrs back when they stocked them in Wellington I was very impressed with the consistency of them.

Re: Show Us Your Guitar
Jazzmaster's wearing a new face. Probably go back to tort next string change. This looks a bit more vintagey, I guess, but I think I prefer the tort. Tort is life.

Re: Show Us Your Guitar
Sometimes I set a figure way to high on the autobid thinking there is no way it will go that high, then I forget to press the autobid button. 30 minutes later the guitar is home and I'm blown away by the greasy blues tones, this is the best slide tone I've ever heard on an electric guitar and incredibly light 7.3 pounds for an all maple body, happy mistake 1959 Rhythm Master. The mini pots on the bass side control are set with a flathead screwdriver
vol and tone for each of the 3 pickups (there is a hidden pickup built into the bridge).
