Description

The Suhr Modern T - Walnut & Black Limba isn’t just an instrument—it’s a statement. A fusion of raw organic beauty and precision-engineered playability, this guitar is built for the serious player who demands tone, feel, and effortless performance at the highest level.

At its core, this guitar sings with the rich, resonant warmth of a 2-piece black limba body, topped with a stunning 2-piece walnut cap that adds a touch of high-end shimmer and definition. The scraped binding gives it a naturally elegant edge, while the arm, hand, and tummy contours ensure it sits against you like an extension of your own body—so comfortable you might forget you’re holding it, until you strike that first chord.

The roasted flame maple neck is nothing short of spectacular. Its satin finish makes for a buttery-smooth playing experience, and thanks to Suhr’s expert roasting process, this neck is incredibly stable, no matter where the road takes you. The ziricote fretboard—dark, exotic, and absolutely luxurious—offers a smooth, articulate playing surface that enhances both speed and precision. With an 11”-16” compound radius and modern elliptical profile (.800” - .850”), your hand will glide effortlessly from silky chords to lightning-fast leads, while the 24 stainless steel jumbo frets provide unbeatable durability and effortless bending.

But tone is king, and this Modern T delivers in spades. Outfitted with Suhr’s Thornbucker pickups, this guitar captures the very essence of vintage PAF magic—warm and dynamic in the neck, punchy and articulate in the bridge. Need more versatility? The Thornbucker Plus in the bridge adds just the right amount of heat for searing leads, and with the push-pull coil split, you can instantly switch to sparkling single-coil tones for funk, blues, or country-inspired twang. With a 5-way blade switch, your tonal options are endless, allowing you to cut through the mix in any playing situation.

Every detail of this guitar is designed for ultimate performance. The Suhr 2-post bridge with solid saddles and a steel block provides rock-solid tuning stability and incredible resonance, while the Suhr locking tuners ensure quick, effortless string changes. The chrome hardware gives it a sleek, high-end aesthetic, and the original headstock, adorned with an abalone logo inlay, adds the perfect finishing touch. Even the details—clay face dots, brass side dots, Tusq nut—are meticulously chosen for both beauty and function.

Weighing in at a perfectly balanced 8 lbs 8 oz, this Modern T is substantial enough to sing with sustain yet light enough for marathon sessions. And when you're ready to hit the road, it comes securely housed in a premium hard case, ready for any gig, session, or stage.

This isn’t just a guitar—it’s an experience. The Suhr Modern T - Walnut & Black Limba is for players who demand the best, who refuse to compromise, and who want an instrument that feels as alive as they do. Whether you're chasing soulful cleans, vintage crunch, or searing lead tones, this guitar will inspire you every time you pick it up. It’s time to elevate your playing—are you ready?
