    Default Bought a Suhr Classic

    It's done. Just waiting for it to show up now. I went with a used Suhr. I think it looks sweet!

    Man, am I ever going to look hot with the baby strapped on! :

    Congrats Robert.

    I gather that you didn't have a chance to play her before purchasing the guitar. May she be as nice as the ones you have handled.

    Once more, congrats on a new axe.

    I have read lots of good things about Suhrs but never ever see one around. I look forward to hearing you play one when good guitar meets good guitarist.

    Some may recall I got myself a used Melancon Pro Artist a few months ago. Now that I've had it a while and have it adjusted to how I want to play it I have to say it is well worth what I paid for it. The guitar plays very nicely, and the Kinmans on it are not only silent, they sound really good.

    It was almost as bad as me talking about pickups!

    So we need specifics! Body wood, pickups, etc. Dare I ask how much less expensive the used one was than a comparable one new?

    Nope. From now on, we'll get to hear you babble about how great a Suhr is. :

    Seriously, congrats are in order. Blazes said it best: "We should all buy that once in a lifetime guitar." So far, I haven't gotten there yet, but one day... Of course, it would help if I actually knew what that once in a lifetime guitar is... :

    Awesome. I love Suhrs. The only bad thing is that now that you own a boutique guitar you can't just play it through some pedestrian amph like a Marshall. You'll need a boutique amph as well. I'm thinking Divided by 13, 65amps, a Sampson era Matchless. There goes your kid's college fund.
