This is an offering that is built off of the Suhr Standard platform but maintains a distinctively vintage and more traditional sound and look with Pete's signature Thornbucker pickups as well as several distinct visual appointments that remind you of a certain legendary 24.75" scale-length, set-neck singlecut guitar.The smooth satin neck blends the best of vintage and modern, being similar to vintage "S" type guitar in shape but with the slightly slimmer profile of a '60s singlecut style guitar. The pickups are a great representation of the "PAF tone" from that style of guitar that, for most, is considered the holy grail of vintage humbucker sounds. The Thornbucker+ in the bridge adds a slightly more aggressive and overwound characteristic to that traditional output level to make it more usable with higher gain applications. It's a great combination of vintage inspiration with modern design. Though you can easily saturate the heck out of these pickups and you won't lose note definition or articulation, you can also get some beautiful crystal clear clean tones and even some slightly overdriven bluesy sounds, especially with the myriad of switching options offered to you by the push-pull pot and 5-way switching. The Wilkinson bridge will guarantee that you can wail away on the trem as much as you want and your intonation will remain spot on. The tonewood choices, hardware choices, and electronics all pair together so well on paper, and plugging the guitar in only reaffirms what a perfect combination it all is in reality as well. Whether you're a Pete Thorn fan or just looking for an awesome vintage-sounding guitar that is a true studio and stage workhorse, this should be on your shortlist for consideration - and in our opinion, at the very top. Details While prolific guitar sideman Pete Thorn may refer to himself as a “guitar nerd” – his resume proves he’s anything but. His effortless, dynamic playing has landed him onstage alongside such legendary artists as Don Henley, Chris Cornell and Melissa Etheridge among others — and his debut solo CD Guitar Nerd garnered critical praise and landed on CD Baby’s top selling albums list. Pete has been a Suhr artist for over 10 years, and has previously partnered with Suhr to design and produce his signature PT100 amplifier and Thornbucker pickups. Now, we are debuting his Signature guitar at NAMM 2017. The guitar is based off of a custom spec Suhr Standard model that Pete has used extensively in the studio and on tour for the last two years. It’s equipped with Thornbucker pickups (with pickup rings, a first for Suhr) and a super comfortable and fast Even C Slim neck. This guitar is designed to be a sleek, versatile tone machine with a stunning yet understated look that exudes class and rock and roll attitude.
