Description

The Suhr Classic JM in Cactus Green Metallic is a bold and electrifying statement from one of the most respected names in modern guitar building. John Suhr’s influence on the guitar world is nothing short of legendary — a master craftsman and innovator whose instruments have shaped the sound of countless stages and studios across the globe. From his early days working with Rudy’s Music and the Fender Custom Shop, to creating Suhr Guitars — now synonymous with flawless build quality, cutting-edge design, and tonal versatility — John has continually raised the bar for what a modern electric guitar can be.

This Classic JM is a perfect reflection of Suhr’s vision: sleek, player-focused, and unapologetically modern while paying homage to offset tradition. Its two-piece basswood body is contoured with arm, hand, and tummy cuts for supreme comfort, all wrapped in a stunning Cactus Green Metallic finish that practically glows under stage lights. The roasted maple neck and fingerboard not only provide rock-solid stability but also offer a silky, fast-playing surface thanks to the Even C Slim profile (.800"-.880") and satin finish — a neck that feels like an extension of your hand.

Subtle details like the clay fingerboard inlays and Luminlay green side dots add both vintage-inspired flair and stage-ready functionality. The 10"-14" compound radius and 22 stainless steel jumbo frets make bending effortless and intonation flawless, while the Suhr 2-post bridge with bent saddles and steel block delivers incredible resonance and sustain.

Loaded with a powerhouse set of Suhr Aldrich humbuckers — double white bobbins in both the neck and bridge — this guitar is a tonal monster. Thick, articulate, and harmonically rich, it roars with authority while retaining clarity and nuance. The reverse hybrid headstock with matching finish and white outline Suhr logo adds a touch of rebellious swagger, while chrome hardware and locking tuners ensure performance is dialed-in and reliable night after night.

At 7 lbs 11 oz, the Classic JM balances perfectly, ready to handle anything from heavy riffing to shimmering cleans with ease. Finished with a rear-routed control layout for sleek aesthetics and shipped in a Suhr Deluxe Gigbag, this is an instrument built not just to impress — but to inspire. The Suhr Classic JM in Cactus Green Metallic is a modern classic for players who demand tone, style, and playability at the highest level.
