2020s Suhr Select Classic T Tele-Style Electric Guitar

This guitar, number 65313, was originally sold by Humbucker Music within recent memory. It's one of their "custom" Classic T models and the custom bit is that it has a roasted maple neck. Roasting the neck wood is not a cure-all for seasonal changes and whatnot but it sure does help a lot with stability from my experience with the stuff and it does seem to help guitars ring just that little bit more.

It's essentially near-mint in looks save that the original pickguard (in the case, with pickwear on it) was replaced with a black pickguard (also with wear on it). Only the tiniest of setups was needed to put this out on the rack and ready for sale.

It features a snazzy "Charcoal Frost Metallic" finish, the nice extra-contoured cutaway found on most Suhrs, solid and reliable hardware (as well as nicely-adjustable saddles), and modern, quiet (ie, non-noisy) pickups that give a lot of the feel and snap of traditional, vintage-style pickups. In short, my experience with the average Suhr is that they're a more-refined and practical-ized take on Big F designs. They just work and play effortlessly when dialed-in.

Repairs included: a quick setup.

Condition notes: it's almost "new" in looks, though the pickguard has pickwear on it from use. The body may have various ultra-light scuffing or scratching here and there, too, but I can't find it myself. I just know that it's been out in the world for a spell and there are definitely folks out there who will yank a microscope out to check the finish...


It comes with: its original gigbag and specifications documents as well as the original red tortoise pickguard.
