The Suhr Classic Pro S1 draws from the deep well of the proven ‘S’ style guitar design and upgrades a number of aspects from hardware and build quality to body contours.
Here we’re looking at a Suhr Classic Pro S1 sporting a Candy Apple Red finish, in very good clean condition with only light wear and some finish cracking at the neck joint. This example dates to 2008 and was built at Lake Elsinore, California. The body is Alder, paired with a Maple neck, Rosewood fret board and nickel frets.
For electronics, this Suhr Classic Pro S1 uses an SSH configuration, with a pair of Suhr single coils and matching humbucker. The trem bridge is a Gotoh 510 model, and is matched with Sperzel locking tuners. Tuning is smooth and stable.
Like many other Suhrs of the period before 2011, this guitar also licenses the patented Buzz Feiten tuning system, but with the standard Suhr CNC-cut nut rather than a ‘shelf’ nut design. If the player wishes, they can use any of a number of tuners that include the Feiten pitch offsets.
Overall, the Suhr Classic S1 is a great playing, professional grade guitar with exceptional build quality.
The original Suhr-branded hard shell case is included.
