  • A player of Pete Thorn’s caliber doesn’t put his name on any old guitar, and this black beauty lives up to the hype! Pete has played with everyone from Melissa Etheridge to Chris Cornell, so he needed a guitar that would be able to cover a lot of stylistic ground, and this Suhr doesn’t disappoint in that regard. Each position on the five-way selector switch has a fantastic, unique sound. With a flick of the wrist, you can go from warm and mellow to biting to jangly and pretty. It’s the musical equivalent of a stylish, sleek Swiss army knife. If you’ve got a hard rock gig on Wednesday and a jazz gig on Friday, this may very well be the guitar for you.

    I know the Wildwood audience tends to fawn over Greg - but if you don't know Pete you definitely should check out his channel.

    Pete thorn is such an underrated guitarist, very humble guy and just a kickass person in general. He makes any review sound outstanding. I’ve had the privilege to meet him 2 times and take a picture with him. One of my favorite guitarist and RUclips’s! Rock on Pete!

    Great review of your new signature guitar! I think you achieved your objective of having a very flexible, do-all guitar that captures a lot of the essence of both a Les Paul and a Stratocaster. And by the way, it looks great.

    I can't speak about Pete's signature guitar, but I did put his pickups in my LesPaul. "Balance" is exactly how I'd describe them. Really a nice set of pickups. Very happy with them.

    The Thornbuckers are fantastic. I love them in the Alt T Pro as well.
    Still, this guitar seems to have been built up from Paul Reed Smith’s principles. That’s not to say that I think Pete should have gone to PRS.. but I think it does tell us that there is now generation of boutique luthiers working in the space that PRS created.

    Seems the intent is a hybrid between a mahogany Les Paul with the feel and playability of a super strat. Just wonder if it actually sounds and projects like a LP?

  • @Utube-g3g
    @Utube-g3g 4 года назад

    Looks almost exactly like Brian Moore custom shop super strats. Way before Suhr made them. You don’t know about them because they went direct only. Some look like a smaller version of PRS with tops imo that beat them. At least the ones I have. Have Seymour Duncan’s in them whatever combination you want. Have bengal striped tops, curly maple tops, chameleon tops with 4 colors way before PRS. That’s more than 10 yrs old. Guys used to paint their cars with chameleon paint. They have if you want and I don’t, usb and synth connections. Piezo’s in the bridge. The jacks in the back. The body’s curved for comfort and thinner. Santana’s side man uses them. Too bad people don’t know about them anymore.

  • @bojangles6444
    @bojangles6444 3 года назад

    I like this guitar but I don’t know about that bridge. I hate a Floyd Rose. I am confused as to wether I can change my tuning without unlocking anything or rebalancing the bridge does anyone know? I am constantly going up and down a half step, and like to be able to easily switch to drop D. If this is as easy to string up as a fixed bridge I might just get one.

    Man, I've been wanting either hb's on my strat, or an S type with hb's. But not just any hb's. PAF style, while still retaining the core Strat voice. Seems like you made it happen, Pete! But... I am afraid to ask how much, Suhr's are high end aren't they?? I mean...high end is good - great! - but can a humble factory hand like myself afford one..?

Of course he makes infinite variations of what would in essence be as close as need be. But.......if it were to be a Pete Thorn sig now!! Oh yea! Thx as always dude.
