Suhr Guitars Core Line Series Suhr Guitars has earned the trust of top professionals not only for its electric guitars but also for its amplifiers and replacement pickups, and has established a reputation as a high-end brand. The brand enjoys worldwide popularity among both professionals and amateurs, and continues to receive overwhelming support from top artists who do a lot of studio work. The masterpiece we are introducing this time is the Classic S full-size Stratocaster shape with a traditional feel, featuring a lightweight alder body that meets Suhr Guitars' strict standards, and a maple neck with a tinted coating that resembles burnt amber. The three V60LP pickups faithfully reproduce the single-coil sound of the 1960s, which boasted the best sound characteristics of the time. Using the same magnets as the pickups manufactured during that era, they deliver the distinctive bell-like highs, warm and punchy mids, and big, powerful lows that are characteristic of great vintage pickups. While researching various vintage pickups, John Suhr discovered some pickups that simply sounded better than others. To find out why, he disassembled the pickups, counted the turns of the coil, and measured the gauss of the magnets. The V60LP reproduces not only the materials but also the hand-wound patterns of pickups produced in the early '60s, resulting in a sweet, rounded, and wonderfully rich high tone. The bridge is a Japanese-made Gotoh G510 2-Post bridge, delivering a natural, expansive tone while minimizing tuning drift due to friction during arm movements. The neck profile is a slightly slimmer "60's C Vintage Standard" with a smooth C-shape that's comfortable and distinctive to 60s models. Furthermore, the fingerboard features a "compound radius" that flattens from 9 inches to 12 inches from the nut to the last fret, providing excellent playability in the higher frets. The stainless steel frets minimize fret wear, maintaining excellent precision and producing a tight sound. The truss rod is adjustable from the headstock, eliminating the need to remove the neck for adjustment, allowing you to adjust the rod without disturbing the Suhr's exceptional neck setup. The extremely thin urethane coating, finished with a Thin Skin coating, boasts excellent acoustic feel, and you can experience outstanding cost performance while maintaining this quality and professional specifications.BODY: Alder BODY SHAPE: Classic NECK: Tinted Maple FINGERBOARD:Indian Rosewood, 22F(Stainless Steel Midium), 25.5 inch PROFILE:60's C Vintage Standard .810 - .930 9-12R PU: JST V60LP(SSCII) TUNER:Suhr Original Locking Tuner BRIDGE:Gotoh G510 2-Post Solid Saddle CONTROL:1volume-2tone-5way Selecter SW [SN.72574/Weight≒3.77kg] Includes Suhr Deluxe Gig Bag Show more
