[elvhfan]

That zebra looks cool in there! I've played a couple Suhr's, and have contemplated getting one. The only thing is that most of the necks are fairly slim and V'd. I'd like to find one with a chunky C neck. I don't even need to ask you how they play.....they're about as perfect as a neck can be, especially with the Feiten tuning system.

Good choice! I always thought Mark Knopfler's Suhr from the early 90's looked and sounded amazing.

gear, mine has what is called a 60's C Vintage Standard Neck Carve, .810-.930, 10-14" Radius...it's actually pretty fat...not as fat as a 57 historic les paul...but pretty chunky...it allows you to "dig in"...i really like it...

Real nice. I've been thinking about getting one of those. There's actually a local dealer, unlike TA, Grosh, Tyler etc...

I sure will, next time I visit Wellington (10 hr drive). By local, I meant 'in the same country'...

Congrats on having one of the finest guitars around! Once you buy a guitar in the same quality department as Suhr, you'll never want to go back.

GJ, definitely check out some Grosh guitars. They may not have the Buzz Feiten, but I think the necks are fatter with a better feel.

With guitars like Tyler, Grosh, Suhr, Melancon, Anderson etc. it's splitting hairs; they're all great guitars!
