Suhr Modern Quilt Roasted - Bengal Burst

The Suhr Modern Quilt Roasted - Bengal Burst is an absolute showstopper, both visually and sonically—a perfect fusion of cutting-edge craftsmanship and timeless tone. John Suhr’s legacy in the guitar world is built on elevating boutique instruments to an art form, consistently pushing boundaries to deliver unparalleled performance, tone, and playability. This guitar embodies that mission in every detail. It starts with a resonant two-piece roasted swamp ash body, paired with a breathtaking two-piece quilt maple top, sculpted with arm, hand, and tummy contours for effortless comfort. Finished in a fiery Bengal Burst, the flame dances beneath the satin, commanding attention before a single note is played.

The roasted flame maple neck and matching fretboard not only look stunning but offer rock-solid stability and a smooth, fast feel thanks to a satin finish and Suhr’s Modern Elliptical profile (.800" – .850"). With a 10”–14” compound radius, 24 jumbo stainless steel frets, and Suhr’s signature precision fretwork, every note rings out with authority and finesse. Chrome hardware, a Wilkinson WVS 130 bridge, and Suhr locking tuners provide unmatched tuning stability and performance. Electronically, it’s a tonal beast—loaded with an SSV humbucker in the neck for warm, vintage-inspired tones and a powerful SSH Plus in the bridge for searing lead work. The 5-way blade switch offers versatile pickup configurations, all controlled by a single volume and tone knob.

From the black face and side dots to the sleek decal logo in black fill with silver outline, every aesthetic detail is thoughtfully executed. Weighing in at just 7 lbs 2 oz and shipping in a premium hard case, the Suhr Modern Quilt Roasted - Bengal Burst is not just a guitar—it’s a precision tool of musical expression, born from the vision of one of the most respected minds in modern luthiery.
