John Suhr Announcement - 7-string Modern Coming Out SOON!

[HighGain510]

Hell yeah! I was reading through a thread over on TGP and John Suhr himself posted the following:

Definitely the beginning of the year (speaking about the Singlecut model he is working on), the hold up was reorganizing the buffing room so we had room for them. Also coming up with it will be 7 String Modern.

Someone then asked if he had proto pics of the LP-style guitar and he replied:

Nope but it is 3+3 single cut and 24.75" scale
Seven is coming first since I have to listen to my son bitch everyday and he knows where to find me.

So apparently his son wants one which is in turn pushing him to finally make one! Well, his kid is cool in my book! This spells danger for my bank account though.... Should be cool, hopefully someone going to NAMM this year will take pics for us PLEASE!

Gawd damn.... Id love to have one if the build it right...must start saving now.

Also forgot to mention, since he labeled it a "modern" model I would assume it would be like the doublecut, 24-fret 6-string modern he currently has in production. I saw a few of those last year and they were BADASS!

i have been following the threads on the Suhr board it has been in the air a few times... we shall see...don't get your hopes too high..between Suhr and Parker i do not know who has me more on the edge of my 7 string seat!!

 

[Cancer]

Well Parker flat out said he wouldn't do one. Has there been a change here?

 

[technomancer]

Holy shit, first a Thorn 7 and now a Suhr? Theses HAVE to be signs of the Apocalypse

 

[sakeido]

FINALLY

FUCK

...I'm getting one

 

[JJ Rodriguez]

Holy shit, first a Thorn 7 and now a Suhr? Theses HAVE to be signs of the Apocalypse

When Parker announces a 7, listen for the trumpets.

 

[Totem_37]

I tried a modern 24 for the first time last week and I was very impressed. I'm definitely going to have to give serious consideration to a Suhr 7

 

[Mattmc74]

More production 7s the better!

 

[stuh84]

Goddamnit, just as I was keeping control over my G.A.S. reactions, THIS arrives

 

[Speedy Fingers]

Aw CRAP!

I promised myself if Suhr or Parker ever came out with a 7 I'd snap it up.

How the hell am I going to afford this?!?!

 

[Yoshi]

Is it untilted and basswood?

 

[6077dino]

Cool! I´ve been waiting these for ages too. I hope he will do them.

 

[budda]

you guys saw the thread by Thr33, right? and how it was asking about what specs the average sevenstring player would want, because Suhr was probably going to start making 7's.

you guys saw that thread, right?

 

[cyril v]

[Apophis]

Suhr builds amazing instruments. I would put my money down this second if he was taking orders on these.
