Suhr Modern Quilt Roasted - Faded Trans Charcoal Burst
The Suhr Modern Quilt Roasted - Faded Trans Charcoal Burst is a masterclass in boutique guitar design—where stunning aesthetics, premium tonewoods, and cutting-edge craftsmanship converge into an instrument that’s built to perform at the highest level. With an unmistakable blend of visual flair and tonal power, this guitar is as inspiring to look at as it is to play.
At the heart of this build is a 2-piece roasted swamp ash body, chosen for its resonant tonal qualities and exceptional weight balance. Topping it is a breathtaking 2-piece quilted maple cap, finished in a rich Faded Trans Charcoal Burst that highlights the depth and complexity of the figuring. The body also features thoughtful arm, hand, and tummy contours, delivering maximum comfort whether you're on stage or in the studio.
The neck is equally impressive—a roasted flame maple piece, paired with a matching roasted flame maple fretboard, both roasted to perfection for increased stability, improved resonance, and enhanced feel. The satin finish provides a smooth, fast-playing surface, while Suhr’s Modern Elliptical profile (.800" to .850"), paired with a 10"–14" compound radius, offers superb playability across all 24 jumbo stainless steel frets. A Tusq nut (1.650") and standard roll fretboard edges add to the overall refinement, ensuring a sleek and inviting feel from the first fret to the last.
Tonally, the Modern Quilt Roasted is built to deliver everything from crystalline cleans to high-gain saturation. Outfitted with Suhr’s SSV neck humbucker and a scorching SSH+ bridge humbucker, both in Nickel Chrome, this guitar handles everything from bluesy warmth to searing modern rock with clarity and punch. A 5-way blade switch unlocks a range of versatile voicings, while the intuitive volume and tone controls give you everything you need without clutter.
Hardware is top-tier and performance-ready. The Wilkinson WVS 130 2-post tremolo with locking saddles and steel block delivers stable, expressive vibrato, and the Suhr locking chrome tuners ensure precise, rock-solid tuning. Chrome hardware throughout complements the body’s burst finish with a sleek, modern aesthetic. Small details like black side and face dots, a black-fill silver-outline Suhr decal, and a matching hard case round out the presentation.
At just 7 lbs, this guitar is incredibly well-balanced and stage-friendly. The Suhr Modern Quilt Roasted - Faded Trans Charcoal Burst is more than just a showpiece—it's a professional-grade instrument that invites expressive playing and rewards every nuance with stunning tone and effortless playability. Whether you're recording, performing, or exploring new creative territory, this guitar is ready to meet—and exceed—the moment.
