Suhr Modern Custom Trans Charcoal Burst

During a visit to the Suhr factory, our Fellows Mike and Coen had the opportunity to personally select the top, and without a doubt, they chose an exceptionally beautiful piece of curly maple.

Suhr builds guitars that make an immediate impression, and this Modern Custom is a perfect example. With a flamed maple top on a mahogany body, a roasted maple neck, and Suhr’s own pickups, this guitar delivers everything a demanding player could need, all in a stunning Trans Charcoal Burst finish.

Suhr is known for its exceptionally consistent quality and attention to detail, with each instrument meticulously hand-set before leaving the workshop. The Modern Custom is one of the most popular models in their range, combining a classically inspired design with modern playability. Suhr’s own SSV and SSH Plus pickups provide a versatile tonal palette, and with the push/pull coil split, you can effortlessly switch between the warmth of a humbucker and the transparent character of a single coil.

During a visit to the Suhr factory, our Fellows Mike and Coen had the chance to personally select the tops, and they undoubtedly succeeded in picking an exceptionally beautiful piece of curly maple. Under the Trans Charcoal Burst finish, the flame figure really shines, making this example just a bit more special than the rest! It comes with a luxurious G&G case.
