Members IamBurnout Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Nice guitar, but I ain't buying one with a battery in it. The high output {censored}s with my effects in a bad way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kebabeater Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Thankfully people that don't play Suhrs appreciate the awesome feeling of paying one third the price for a similar guitar from Ibanez or Schecter.... That is to say, I expect this guitar to come in at well over two grand. Other than very nice fit & finish, and taking out exotic wood options (which bring these guitars into PRS private stock territory) who sees the reasoning behind paying three times the price for a Strat just so you can have a...... Strat? I've been playing guitar for 31 years and used to own 3 Ibanez J Customs cos' they're nice well built guitars. I also didn't really understand the Suhr hype/price until I tried one...it's like driving a Fiat Punto for years and then being given a Porsche GT3 for the day....just light and day difference....once you've played a Suhr nothing else comes close - even the top-end PRS and Tom Anderson guitars IMO are not a patch in terms of playability...

Members cavemanic Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 So I heard post production is a pretty cool thing. Confirm/Deny??you mean build quality?Quality is fairly decent Theres only 30 of these made I love it , 26.5" scale length , EMGs coil taps to , Neck thru and of course its a flying v!!!!! perfect balance I'm very strongly thinking about a second one I've got a UV777BK and its stock pickups are garbage...The next upgrade was a stephen carpenter 607bgreat guitar but negatives = pickup position and no inlays makes it hard to see , neck heavy to IMO 7 strings are pointless without extended scales if you want great definition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Polaris20 Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Just because it looks like an Ibanhad doesn't mean it plays like one. I mean {censored}, compare Charvel/Kramer/G&L/Fender/Suhr/ESP/Squier/etc/ They all make strat style guitars, but not a single one of them feel the same. I garauntee you that the suhr is a noice ass guitar. Worth the $2000 clams you'd pay for it. Especially since a comparable Ibanez would be well over a grand and be made in Japan. Exactly. and the RG1527 is already up to nearly $1300 anyway. So for $2000 this isn't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
