New Suhr Guitars

hubobulous

So Suhr have given Pete Thorn his own Standard sig in black or gold top and Ian Thornley a brand new offset sig. Both look awesome. Pics to come

They'll save a few bob on decals... only an extra "ley".
Roll on the David Torn model (Although i'd love a Ronin!)

I'll probably sell my Modern and buy this.

This Andy Wood looks nice too...

The gold PT looks ace.   I'd like one of those.

What shape is the Ian Thornley guitar based on?  like a Jazzmaster or something?

hubobulous

Yeah, it's based on the Jazzmaster. They're bring out a Pro series model too

The yellow Thornley looks ace. Standards don't work for me as well as the other models, but that gold top looks lovely

Ronin just told me they would't build a guitar to my spec, it was quite liberating! No more GAS!

As an aside, the Badger amps have been changed too with some nice modifications

Love both of the Pete Thorn models.

Pete Thorn was playing a black one in the new Suhr pedal demoes I think, thought it looked nice but had no idea it was a sig model.

He's had the black standard for quite a while but Its only just become a sig model. He based it around a guitar that Ian Thornley had with a red back and now its his!! ;-)
