The Suhr Modern Roasted in Firemist Silver is a bold, high-performance instrument that exemplifies Suhr’s commitment to craftsmanship, innovation, and precision. Built on a legacy forged by John Suhr, a pioneer in boutique guitar design and engineering, this guitar is designed for players who demand both elegance and unrelenting performance. The Modern Roasted is a refined, forward-thinking take on the modern superstrat—blending premium tonewoods, sleek aesthetics, and flawless ergonomics.
Its 2-piece Alder body is topped with a 2-piece plain maple cap, finished in a shimmering Firemist Silver that gleams under stage lights. The arm, hand, and tummy contours offer unmatched comfort, while the black top binding adds a sharp visual edge. The neck—a stunning roasted flame maple piece—features a satin finish for a fast, natural feel, paired with a smooth, jet-black ebony fingerboard for articulate attack and tight response. The Modern Elliptical neck profile (.800"-.850"), combined with a 10”-14” compound radius, standard rolled edges, and 24 jumbo stainless steel frets, delivers an incredibly fluid and consistent playing experience across the fretboard.
Visually, the guitar stuns with abalone inlay details, including an abalone Suhr logo, abalone ring face dots, and matching abalone side dots, providing a luxurious, custom-shop flair. The stealthy black hardware complements the silver finish, including the Wilkinson WVS 130 2-post tremolo with locking saddles and steel block, and Suhr’s black locking tuners, ensuring rock-solid tuning and expressive performance.
Under the hood, the Suhr Modern Roasted is loaded with a set of Aldrich humbuckers—both in the neck and bridge positions—delivering massive, harmonically rich tones with thick mids and searing highs. The control setup is both intuitive and versatile: a single volume and tone (with push-pull to split both humbuckers) and a 3-way blade switch, giving you access to a wide tonal palette from fat humbucking growl to crisp single-coil sparkle.
Weighing in at a comfortable 7 lbs 13 oz and shipped in a premium hard case, the Suhr Modern Roasted - Firemist Silver is not just a modern guitar—it’s a statement of intent for the serious guitarist. It’s sleek, explosive, and built to perform on the world’s biggest stages.
