NGD: refinished Suhr modern satin

[GOHOINC]

My first Suhr.

Modern satin refinished in Candy green by GMW. Pickups were upgraded to a thornbucker+, v60, thornbucker setup. Wow what an easy player super versatile tone wise great ace. Makes me want another Suhr already.

Looks killer. Gassing hard for a Classic pro but not sure about the Gotoh bridge

Once you get the strings stretched and tuned well, the gotoh and locking tuners are very stable. I found I had to stretch and retune, then hammer the whammy and retune about 3 times before it stabilized. Keep in mind that this was also after just opening the box upon delivery so the guitar was cold and I lowered the tuning a half step. Seems like a great trem and locking tuner set up.

kick ass! Gas'ing so hard for a Suhr and I considered buying a satin and having it refinished just because i've seen more reasonable used satins on the market. What was the price to have GMW do that? did you have to strip the body or do they do it?

The finish and pickup change were already done by the previous owner. I was fortunate enough to snag this a few hours after it popped up on reverb. It was still one of the lowest priced suhrs listed, even cheaper than most other modern satins, so I think I got a great deal, super happy with this guitar. Tremendous bang for buck here.

Btw, finish job is excellent.
