The frets are in perfect condition and polished to shine like a mirror, it is truly stage or studio ready/worthy. Including New Strings,  Perfect Intonation, Truss Rod Adjustment and Low Action Read Our Feedback and Rest Assured, The Dude Abides!


Imagine gripping a guitar that's not just an instrument, but a masterpiece of sonic fury and visual elegance. Behold this upgraded Suhr Custom Classic S, cloaked in the enigmatic Montego Black Metallic finish that shimmers like a starry night sky over a roasted Alder body—resonant, lively, and ready to roar. Paired with a roasted flame maple neck that's a feast for the eyes, flaunting gorgeous flames that dance under any light, and topped with a deep Indian rosewood fretboard boasting beautiful grain patterns. This beauty is in excellent, nearly mint condition, barely touched beyond a few electrifying minutes in a smoke-free, climate-controlled studio—it's been pampered in its case, waiting for a player worthy of its prowess.


Dive into the upgrades that elevate this axe to legendary status: We've transformed the electronics from a standard SSS setup with master volume and tone to a versatile HSS configuration, complete with master volume and dual tone controls—one shared for the neck and middle single coils, and a dedicated one for the bridge humbucker. Crafted at the Suhr custom shop, the custom Tortoise Shell 3-Ply pickguard is loaded with premium firepower: an SSV bridge humbucker for thunderous tones, and V60LP pickups in the neck and middle for crystal-clear sparkle. Navigate it all with a 5-way blade switch tipped in Parchment, plus Volume, Tone (Neck and Middle), and Tone (Bridge) knobs also in sleek Parchment. And for that pristine, noise-free performance? Suhr's proprietary SSCII (Silent Single Coil II) hum-cancelling system has your back. Even the Tremolo Cavity Cover matches in Tortoise Shell 3-Ply for that cohesive, pro-level vibe.


Stability meets style with the Gotoh 510 bridge, now enhanced with matching chrome Gotoh Locking LS108 saddles—say goodbye to tuning woes and hello to endless sustain. (The original solid saddles are included, just in case.) Strung with fresh Ernie Ball .009-.042 gauges, it's primed for action, though you'll tweak the setup to match your shredding style. And it all travels in style with the original G&G hardshell case in black, also in top-notch condition.


Built for blistering speed, this guitar glides effortlessly with its 10-14" compound fretboard radius and jumbo stainless steel frets—your fingers will fly like never before. The roasted alder body delivers that punchy, vibrant resonance, while the flame maple neck and rosewood board blend warmth and precision for tones that are truly addictive. This is no ordinary build; it's a thoughtfully curated custom creation that plays and sounds like a dream.


With a new price tag soaring over $5,000, my loss is your golden opportunity. Open to reasonable offers; this gem deserves a new stage to conquer!


Comes complete with the original hard-shell case, fret-guard, tremolo arm, wrenches, spec sheet, and those original Gotoh solid saddles.


Other Notes: This Classic S is pure magic. The roasted alder body vibrates with life and energy, the flame-roasted maple neck stuns with its gorgeous figuring, perfectly complemented by the rich, grained Indian rosewood. But the real thrill? It plays and sounds utterly phenomenal—a custom build that's as intelligent as it is inspiring!


A Note About the Color: Montego Black Metallic is a stunner that's tough to capture on camera. It appears sleek black at a glance, but catch it in the right light, and the metallic sparkle explodes like hidden diamonds. Dive into the close-up photos taken in direct lighting to witness that hypnotic shimmer!
