Awesome U.S.-Made Classic from Suhr! Has been displayed in-store and unfortunately took a tumble overnight from a genuine California seismic event. The resulting blemishes (everything pictured) are purely cosmetic; guitar has been inspected, dialed in and set up in-shop. Plays great with low action!
Suhr Classic Purple Haze with Case - 28811
All Suhrs are great instruments but this one sounds especially good. It has a very authoritative tone with a big round midrange. All the sparkly highs & focused lows are there but the mids are really smooth & punchy. It has a big, full voice all up & down the neck but is still a very touch-sensitive guitar. Single notes have a very warm & centered feel. At 8 pounds 5 ounces it's easy on the shoulder.
The DSV Bridge is a warmer version of our popular SSV humbucker. Equipped with a double row of screws, and slightly overwound for more output, the DSV offers increased sustain and a smoother top-end response.. The The V60 pickups offer a balance of tight lows, focused midrange and smooth top-end sparkle. V60 pickups incorporate a modified staggered pole piece design to provide an even magnetic field needed to accommodate instruments with flatter neck radius and today’s string gauges. They blend surprisingly well with the split bridge pickup too. All Suhr pickups feature Alnico V magnets which help maintain punch without costing musicality.
The set up is every bit as good as the tone. The compound radius fingerboard features 22 PLEKed & hand dressed jumbo frets. The perfect frets & outstanding set up combine to make an almost unreal playing experience- notes come out from under the fingers fast & easy in a way that really defies description.
"The Classic is a nod to the iconic double cutaway shape that has embodied Rock and Blues music for decades. It retains the vintage vibe while adding modern improvements to meet the needs of today’s players. From vintage quack to grinding blues and soaring lead tones the Classic really delivers."
