Get your Suhr Alt T Guitar at Humbucker Music, the largest dealer of Suhr guitars in the world with the most inventory for sale and in stock now!
The Suhr Alt-T features a dual humbucker deluxe thinline tele body, but with all the superior refinements and upgrades that come from a Suhr guitar. Each Suhr Alt T goes through the same renowned individual setup process that $10-15k Suhr Custom guitars go through. For the money, these guitars simply CANNOT be beat.
Each Suhr Alt T is built with a two-piece body of either Alder (Rosewood fingerboards) or Swamp Ash (Maple fingerboards). Suhr takes great care in finishing the body with an ultra "Thin Skin" urethane finish, allowing for the wood to resonate freely while still providing plenty of protection to ensure the longevity of these guitars.
The neck is made from quartersawn tinted maple and features a vintage 60's Medium C shape with medium stainless steel frets. The frets feature rolled edges and a 9"-12" compound radius, great for smooth bends. These appointments create a comfortable, fast feeling neck with long lasting playability.

About the Pickups in this Guitar
If you need authentic vintage humbucker sounds, there is no need to look any further than Suhr's SSV humbucking pickups. They have a broad sonic aperture with very little compression, making for a dynamic, vintage output humbucker. The SSV Neck is a versatile pickup that combines the warmth of a vintage humbucker with increased clarity and definition. The SSV Bridge is similar to the SSV neck in tone, but wound hotter for more output, increased sustain and a sweet midrange response.
Magnet: AlNiCo V, DC Resistance: 9K ohms for bridge position, 8K ohms for neck position, 4-conductor wire
The Alt T incorporates a 5-way switch with the dual humbuckers giving you a wide variety of tones. The pickup positions are the following:
1) Bridge Humbucker
2) Bridge Split and Neck Split Combined (more useful than bridge split!)
3) Bridge Humbucker and Neck Humbucker Combined
4) Neck Split
5) Neck Humbucker
