Suhr has just unveiled a new addition to its lineup, the limited-edition Standard Legacy series. These guitars are based on the original models from John Suhr’s first-ever guitar design. Let’s check ’em out!
Suhr limited-edition Standard Legacy
This limited edition run of the Standard Legacy is based on Suhr’s first flagship model from 1984, designed by John Suhr himself.

Hardware
You can opt for either a Gotoh trem and a 1.650” Tusq nut and Suhr locking tuners, or a Floyd Rose locking trem, with a locking nut. All hardware is gold across the various colour variations. The pickups are a set of EMG SAs in the neck and middle positions, plus an EMG 85 in the bridge position. These are controlled by a three-way selector switch and master volume and tone knobs.
