Sound Pure's Take

Weight: 9.15 lbs.

Another incredible example of exotic woods and tops creating the perfect piece to the puzzle. A Desert Gradient finish fades wonderfully down the beautiful Flame Maple top, and the satin-finished Pau Ferro neck and fingerboard offer effortless playability. Pair those exotic tonewoods with a resonant mahogany body and you have a recipe to die for! The range of Suhr's SSV/SSH+ pickup set can get you anywhere from classic crunch to modern, saturated lead tones, and the ML Standard Single coil in the middle is just icing on the cake to provide all the spank you'll need!

John Suhr himself deemed this particular combination the "holy grail of tone!"

The innovative Suhr Modern is our high-performance take on the 24 fret design. From the speed and precision of Fusion to the pounding rhythms of Metal, the Modern is designed to deliver on every level.

With its sleek elliptical neck profile, balanced asymmetrical body, and innovative neck heel, the Modern delivers unmatched playability and comfort. Top quality wood selection and lustrous finishes make the Modern as stunning to look at as it is to play.

Quality tonewoods and Suhr pickups ensure the Modern is never short on tone. If the ultimate in performance and beauty is what you are after, look no further than the Suhr Modern.

MODERN SET-NECK

The thick, sustaining sound of the set-neck electric guitar has helped define Rock music for half a century. The set-in neck joint produces a warm, singing tone and facilitates easier access to the upper frets.

Basswood:

Native to Asia, Europe, and North America, Basswood gained prominence as a favored tone wood for shredders in the 1980’s. It is light in color and weight with almost no grain pattern. It is best suited for solid colors or as a backing wood for a figured top. Basswood bodies have a fat, well-balanced tone that produces smooth sounds without any hard edges.
