The PT Traditional 90 is the ultimate expression of Pete Thorn’s pursuit of tone and playability. Designed for players who crave the essence of vintage “S-style” guitars with the modern upgrades that professionals demand, this guitar is a true innovation. At its heart is the all-new PT90 bridge pickup, delivering fat punch, clarity, and Suhr’s proprietary Active SSCII Silent Single Coil System for noise-free performance—a game-changer for single-coil enthusiasts. Matched with the classic chime and balance of V63 single coils in the neck and middle, the PT Traditional 90 offers a tonal palette that’s versatile, inspiring, and perfectly tailored for any style. Enhanced with a 9-12” compound radius fingerboard, a Suhr 2-post tremolo with bent saddles, and a true lacquer finish, this guitar embodies Pete’s vision of effortless playability and timeless style. The PT Traditional 90: Pete Thorn’s latest masterpiece, crafted to elevate your playing experience. “The PT Traditional 90 strikes the perfect balance between modern features and vintage soul! This one is for players that love "S style" guitars with three single coils, but long for an improved bridge pickup tone, with no noise! The all new PT90 bridge pickup delivers fat punch and clarity, and balances perfectly with the neck and middle V63 single coils. A 9-12" compound radius fingerboard, Suhr 2 post tremolo with bent saddles, and true lacquer finish round out the package.” -Pete Thorn
