First-time poster. Short-time but avid reader.
I've got $3k (max) allocated to a guitar purchase. I'm leaning toward a Suhr Classic T, but I'm still putting this decision through the paces. Note that this will be my only opportunity to spend this much on a guitar for many, many years.
The rest of my collection consists of a lonely Carvin AE-185. I'd like to mix it up, so I'm looking at a solid body (no chambering) with single coils. However, my only hard-and-fast requirement is the guitar must still inspire my love and awe in 40 years.
Thus: (1) If you wouldn't get a Suhr T, what would you get and why? Or, (2) if you agree with the T, which config would you get? I'm thinking the vintage bridge with Suhr S/S/S: tele bridge, FL middle, tele neck.
Thanks in advance!
