Description

Alright, listen up. This ain't just a guitar—this is a damn weapon. The Suhr Standard Carve Top in Trans Purple Burst is the kind of axe that walks into a smoky bar, orders a whiskey neat, and burns the place down with the first chord. It’s got attitude, it’s got swagger, and it’s got tone so lethal it should come with a warning label.

Underneath that deep, oceanic Quilt Maple top—so mesmerizing you could drown in it—beats the heart of a Mahogany body, contoured for comfort but built for pure, unrelenting power. The Pau Ferro neck and fretboard feel like they were carved from the bones of rock ‘n’ roll itself—fast, smooth, and dangerous, with a 60’s C Vintage Standard carve that’s got just the right amount of meat for digging in. Add in 22 jumbo stainless steel frets, a 10”-14” compound radius, and an oil finish that feels like silk, and you’ve got a neck that’s as effortless as it is mean.

Now, let’s talk about the gold hardware—because when you’re playing something this badass, it better shine. The Wilkinson WVS 130 bridge keeps things locked down tight, with steel saddles and a steel block for sustain that sings like a siren. The Suhr locking gears keep your tuning bulletproof, so no matter how hard you bend, this beast ain't breaking a sweat.

And the sound? Oh, man. This thing snarls. The gold Thornbucker pickups bring the heat—warm and articulate in the neck, raw and searing in the bridge. Flip through the 5-way blade, and you’ll find everything from smoky, bluesy whispers to screaming, face-melting lead tones. Every note punches like a heavyweight, every chord rings out like a war cry.

Top it all off with an Abalone inlay logo, side dots, and ring face dots, and you’ve got a guitar that’s not just built to play—it’s built to dominate. Weighing in at 7 lbs 15 oz, this beauty feels solid, substantial, and ready for battle. And yeah, it comes in a hard case, because something this dangerous needs to be kept under lock and key.

The Suhr Standard Carve Top in Trans Purple Burst ain’t for the faint of heart. It’s for the players who mean business. You ready to unleash it?
