Has any one else had this same experience?

Yea, I have the same experience and it's a poly finish...been that way with every Suhr I've owned. My number 1 is a Classic and it vibrates like crazy through the body and neck. It's a 2005 I bought off eBay in 2007 from a guy in France and it still blows me away every time I play it.

I think every guitar have to have some time to "settle in", that's one of the reasons used/old/second hand guitars often feels great when new guitars can feel a bit "stiff".

My 2 Suhrs were amazing right out of the box, but even they got to the next level after a couple of month of playing.

Well first I must say that my Suhr has been amazing right out of the box, for sure!!!

Although I have owned lots of guitars in my life -
( American strats' - Fender CS' 56 Strat.. so on )
and have never experienced this much of a maturing of the guitar if you will...

Just did not expect it at all

it doesnt have to be a suhr ,,just about every guitar i have ever owned gets better the longer i have kept it..for some crazy reason they do seem to follow a pattern.

seems like each year older they get, on or around the year is when i hear and/or feel it change..

weird but true

Beautiful guitar...I'd like to get my hands on an Antique someday, but for now my Classic will do!

I love mine, the more dinks and cracks it gets, the better.

And you know what? I never worry about scratching it up... unlike some of my other glossy beautiffic fiddles.




And here it was a couple years ago, brand new & shiny, LOL

Man that is a crazy Antique u have there with the Floyd Rose !!!

I love the Suhr Antique series - In a genuinely bad decision, I passed on a T style guitar that John had at NAMM in maybe 2006, one of the first ones.

It was a 'freakin AMAZING guitar. I shouldda bought that one ....

Thanks, Dana O.

Don't have an Antique, but I love the hell out of my two Suhrs I own.

John, I'd be thrilled to play that guitar again.

That particular guitar is one of those instruments that just stays with you. My memory is that I felt like I could easily go from Led Zeppelin to Roy Nichols just by varying my picking hand.

Yet Another amazing Suhr guitar, thanks, Dana O.
