We have to be honest here... This is one of our favorite runs we've done with Suhr. The Suhr Select Standard Plus Mahogany guitars are a collaboration between Humbucker Music and Suhr and is available in very limited numbers. This run has some considerable differences from the popular Standard Plus model. The body and neck are Genuine Mahogany instead of Basswood and Maple. The fingerboard is Ebony as opposed to Pao Ferro and we chose the Raw Nickel Thornbucker Plus in the bridge position (perfect for a mahogany body), which includes a Push/Pull pot to split the coils. We also went with the same Wilkinson Bridge used by Pete Thorn on his signature model.
The Select Standard Plus Mahogany is equipped with Suhr's much loved Even C Slim profile. The rolled edges and a 10-14" compound fingerboard radius offers a substantial, yet comfortable shape. The Mahogany neck is finished in satin acrylic urethane, which provides protection from moisture and smooth playing. Each guitar also includes heavy stainless steel frets and is set up by some of the industry's finest insuring the best possible string action, optimized playability and intonation.
Included is Suhr's SSCII system to provide noise cancellation for the single coil pickups, so every position on the 5-way switch is hum canceling.
So what is the difference between a Suhr Custom and a Suhr Select Standard? Nothing at all! The Select Standard is a fixed spec guitar with different finishes. With Suhr Custom guitars, you can practically customize every spec of your guitar. The Select Standard guitars use the most common specs requested by players, allowing the EXACT same quality as a Custom, but at a better price.

About the Pickups in this Guitar:
V60 Neck and Middle: The V60 pickups faithfully recreate the classic single-coil sounds of the 60’s. These pickups use the same magnets that were used in the pickups made during this era. What you get are clear bell-like highs, warm and punchy mids, and big yet firm lows that are the hallmark of great vintage pickups, which aren't as common as one might be led to believe. John Suhr examined a variety of vintage pickups and found that some sound much better than others and took apart the great ones to find out why, measuring the gauss of the magnets to counting the number of turns of the coil wires. The V60 replicates the handwound pattern of some early-60's single-coil pickups and impart sweeter and rounder highs.
Thornbucker+ Bridge: A slightly hotter versions of the ever popular Thornbucker designed out of a need for a no-compromise, consistent set of 50's Gibson PAF style pickups with none of the downsides associated with them. 50's Gibson PAF humbucker pickups have long since been coveted for their exceptional tone and ability to play both clean and dirty. With inspiration from Pete Thorn, Suhr has brought us the perfect set of PAF pickups, only a little hotter!
