Suhr Andy Wood Signature Modern T Guitar, Stark Red
- DESCRIPTION
The Suhr Andy Wood Signature Guitar is one of our favorite spec'd guitars from Suhr. It comes with a Roasted Maple neck and fretboard, contoured heel, Modern Elliptical neck profile with a 16" radius, and 24 stainless steel jumbo frets. Also, this version comes loaded with the Suhr Woodshed pickups, which are an Andy Wood signature T set. This guitar screams, "I can do chicken-pickin' country, or I can shred!"
The finish on the body is quite interesting. It has a finish Suhr calls "Torched Satin" which is a process that raises the grain by literally torching the swamp ash body with a hand held torch. The grain is then sprayed over with a satin finish. This process allows the grain to really pop and be seen through the protective coating.

About the pickup in this guitar:
Andy Wood has a great appreciation for vintage T-style instruments that possess a balance of woodiness and twang. When it came time to design pickups for Andy’s Signature model, John Suhr recalled the experience of rewinding a vintage T pickup for guitar pioneer Les Paul; a pickup that embodied this classic era of tone. Utilizing a combination of plain enamel wire, identical winding techniques, and custom Alnico 5 magnets, the Woodshed Series pickups were born.
The Woodshed Bridge Pickup truly nails the 50’s era tone with added polish on the high strings and extra attitude on the low strings.
