2019 Suhr Classic T Antiqued Tele-Style Electric Guitar

If you're a Telecaster player, then this guitar will feel right at home while also feeling like a "zero impediments to playing" instrument. Suhr makes good stuff -- which is why you see it on stages all over the place. This is a rock-solid, practical guitar that's aimed at the live market as far as I can tell. It has two non-noisy single coil pickups, a familiar neck feel, stainless steel frets, extra contouring for easy playing up into the cutaway, locking tuners, and high-quality hardware throughout.

This is an "aged" or "lightly antiqued" model rather than a heavily-relic'd one, too, so it has a lacquer/nitro finish that has been lightly weather-checked throughout. There are also small chips to the finish along the top and back edges but I'm unsure whether that's actual wear and tear (nitro is fragile) or whether it was factory-done aging. I don't suppose it really matters, though, because it all looks/feels nice and friendly. The pickguard appears to be bakelite and it has some nice pickwear/usewear throughout its surface.

All I did on this guy was lightly adjust the setup and it was ready to hang out in the shop. It plays fast, easy, and spot-on. It's got an effortless sort-of feel to it.

This has the "trans white" finish which is a little bit of a more bluish-grey-white-tint over the ash. It's a timeless look.
