Suhr Classic JM SSV - Gold
The Suhr Classic JM SSV in Gloss Gold brings vintage-inspired offset style into the modern era with unmatched playability, premium hardware, and Suhr’s renowned build quality. Designed for players who crave refined tone and sleek aesthetics, this model blends the bold visual identity of the JM body shape with the power and clarity of Suhr’s SSV humbuckers.
Built with a 2-piece alder body and finished in a luxurious gloss gold, this guitar delivers a balanced tonal foundation with a punchy low end and articulate highs. Its contoured body—featuring arm, hand, and tummy cuts—ensures exceptional comfort whether you're performing on stage or tracking in the studio. The parchment pickguard and matching tremolo cavity cover offer a clean contrast that completes the guitar’s elegant, modern look.
The Classic JM SSV is loaded with Suhr’s SSV humbuckers in both the neck and bridge positions, delivering a rich, full-bodied sound with warm mids and smooth top-end detail. Controlled by a 3-way toggle switch, along with individual tone knobs and a volume control, this setup gives you immediate access to a range of tones—ideal for everything from vintage rock to modern alternative styles.
The maple neck features a 60’s C Vintage Standard profile (.810–.930"), paired with an Indian rosewood fingerboard and a 10"-14" compound radius, offering a familiar vintage feel with modern versatility. Medium stainless steel frets provide long-lasting performance and effortless bending. The Suhr 2-post tremolo with bent saddles and a steel block ensures smooth pitch modulation and rock-solid tuning stability, while chrome Suhr locking tuners make string changes quick and reliable.
Whether you're looking for a tone-rich workhorse or a visually distinct offset for your collection, the Suhr Classic JM SSV – Gold delivers the performance and sophistication expected from a custom-built Suhr instrument.
