The Suhr Pete Thorn Signature Standard HSS electric guitar is a testament to the marriage of versatility and craftsmanship, designed for musicians who demand precision and dynamic sound. With its classic S-style silhouette, this guitar boasts a meticulously crafted 2-piece alder body and a roasted maple neck that ensures both durability and a resonant tone. The neck features a unique ’60s Soft “V” profile, which transitions smoothly into a “C” shape, providing an ergonomic grip for any playing style.

The real magic lies in its remarkable pickup configuration. The dual Suhr V63 single-coils deliver a vintage-inspired, noise-free experience, thanks to the SSCII system. Meanwhile, the Thornbucker II humbucker in the bridge offers a heightened output with a crisp, articulate edge. This guitar's versatility is further enhanced by a 5-way switch and series/parallel wiring, making it an adaptable companion for genres ranging from blues to rock.

The ebony fingerboard's 10-14 inch compound radius ensures comfort for both chording and soloing, while the 22 jumbo stainless steel frets make it a durable stage and studio veteran. Tuning stability is reinforced by the Wilkinson WVS 130 2-post locking tremolo and Suhr locking tuners, allowing for expressive tremolo use without compromising pitch.
