Suhr Classic T Paulownia, Roasted Maple Neck & Fretboard, Trans Gray
Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to offer up this Classic T from our friends over at Suhr. Hand-built with extreme attention to detail, this Tele absolutely rocks. And it's super lightweight so you can shred for hours on end in complete comfort.
The pickups sound vintage and the Paulownia gives some nice punch to the tone. We also love how the pickups are dead silent when you solo them, but they are not noise-cancelling pickups. They are true single-coils in every way. The extra hum gets nullified at a later stage in the signal chain leaving the tone crystal clear and airy, yet quiet and with no annoying buzzing and humming.
We're huge fans of John Suhr's work here at the shop. His guitars are incredibly well built and they truly feel like each one received an extraordinary of time and attention put into it.
Manufacturer's Description
Meet our newest friend, Paulownia. Paulownia is a body wood that sounds and looks similar to Swamp Ash. It is a highly resonant tone wood that is both beautiful and extremely light in weight. Paired with a roasted maple neck and fingerboard along with our Classic T pickups and Silent Single Coil II system, the Classic T Paulownia is a light weight guitar that delivers authentic T-style tones with a bit more warmth and body.
