Wow! How did you get a build slot for that one Drew? They are out a long time I thought. That's killer. I bet it plays incredible. Suhr guitars are great. Just precise machines with playability and tone. :rock:

I was lucky enough to find an April build slot at the end of February. Not sure if someone dropped out or what, but I just consider it lucky. Suhrs are incredible pieces of work. I consider myself very lucky to own some great guitars.
To say they are anal about each guitar is an understatement. They build every guitar like they were building it for John himself. Quote Unquote. The smallest imperfection kicks it out of QC and back through a process. They use thin finishes. You might be surprised how easy it is, even for a master builder, to burn through it with a buffer. And back through paint it goes. Suhr is meticulous. About as close to perfection as I have seen. :rock:


I was at Suhr once purchasing a Modern and we were walking past John's office. He called us in and took the guitar and pointed out a very small imperfection in the finish on the back and gave me a great discount. He noticed it as we walked by about 6 feet from him. Amazing. Great guitars for sure. Nice score Drew :rock:
He didn't notice it. He smelled that fucker when you were twenty feet away :lol: :LOL:
 
Absolutely killer man congrats! I love my molten lava and ice blue drips m
 
Very nice, buddy!

Never seen that finish before...love the fretboard dots, too!

I wanted to go a little more subtle with the (this, not the) one. :lol: :LOL:

This made me laugh out loud!

Congrats! Cool guitar.

:D Hope you're laughing at what I intended to say and not my butchering of English. :thumbsup:

Nice axe you wild man. Both versions of the Suhr Modern Shred and this? :D

Scarily similar paint scheme to my Sadowsky

Very similar. As you can imagine, I dig that Sadowsky.
 
This is one of those "can't put down" guitars. Thank you for all the comments, I absolutely love it. Suhr is definitely up there in need to own guitars. This gives any of my superstrats a run for their money. Couldn't be happier.
 
Very cool, looks like a cross between a Jem and one of Vernon Reids ESPs from the 80's
 
You gonna be gigging it any time soon, bud? It'd look awesome on stage!
