I've never seen another one like it, it stuck in my brain from the first time I saw it!!!

From picking out the choicest woods, to countless hours of detailed programming on state-of-the-art in-house CNC machines, to hand-sanding, painting and buffing by highly-skilled and experienced craftsmen, to using other high-tech machines like the Plek, laser-engravers and computerized pickup winders, to assembly and set-up work by master builders, to the final QC check and play-test by John himself, we control every minute detail of how every guitar is built. No guitar leaves our factory until John feels that he loves it. Every guitar has to sound great, play like butter, and look stunning for John to give the final okay to ship. We constantly strive to further improve the quality of our guitars. Some people may ask, "How do you improve on perfection?" But we beg to differ. Whether it's how we mix the paint we use, picking out the electronic components in a wiring assembly, the fret wires we pick out, or getting the necessary equipment to improve consistency and help our craftsmen and builders to perform at their very best, our motto is that we can always build it better today than we did yesterday. It is this spirit of passionate and relentless pursuit of continuous improvement that you feel, hear and see in every one of our guitars. No detail is too small for us to overlook. Every guitar must meet our lofty standards or it just doesn't ship. Many years of experience and practical knowledge go into every Suhr guitar. The following are some of our thoughts on the features and options offered on our instruments. Sleek and fast yet classy with the mojo and tone, our Custom Standard guitars are the identity of Suhr Guitars. Popular as a "deluxe" custom guitar with 5A grade Quilted Maple and Flame Maple tops and matching figured headstock, the Standard can also be stripped down as a no-frills gigging workhorse guitar that performs like no other axe night after night. Popular wood combinations are Basswood/Maple top body with one-piece Maple neck or with Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard, Alder body with Maple neck and Pau Ferro fingerboard, Swamp Ash/Maple top body with one-piece Maple neck, and Mahogany/Maple top body with Mahogany neck and Indian Rosewood board. The most popular neck shapes for the Standard are the Even C Slim, the new Even C Extra Slim, and the 60's C Vintage Standard. Most common bridges used on the Standard are the Gotoh 510 with the Steel Block (which replaces the discontinued Standard trem that used to be made by Fishman and the Gotoh 1055 and 1088 bridges as well) and the Gotoh Floyd Rose. Virtually any pickup configuration is possible – HSS, HH, HSH, two or three S90's, HS, and even single humbucker in the bridge a la EVH. Due to the demand for versatility and flexibility, HSS and HSH are the two most requested configurations. Build your dream axe with the Suhr Custom Standard. Envision it and we'll make it a reality you'll enjoy for a lifetime
