Suhr: KIKO drive

Kiko Loureiro finally gets his signature pedal, the Suhr Kiko Shiba Drive. He's already been using the Shiba prior to this endorsement citing its ability to push the amp's front end for great solos as a primary attraction. If you are such a player- someone who's already contented with your amp's pre-amp section- you might want to check this out.

Selling: Suhr (not mine)

What you see here is a Suhr guitar in a stunning blue denim finish. It belongs to my friend Edmund, if you are interested & willing to deal in the $3K price bracket, please get back to him: edster@gmail.com

Product is SOLD (as at February 18th). Thanks to all interested parties.

Basswood speaks

Ha! Guthrie Govan's latest signature Suhr guitar features a basswood body- there are many people out there who are very dismissive when it comes to all things basswood; they don't vene want to listen when you mention this wood type.

Stolen pedals alert: SUHR

Just doing my part to make things difficult for thieves- if you happen to come across the above-depicted pedals (which were stolen from Woodworkz), please refer the parties concerned to the police/ Woodworkz:

• Riot: S/N No 2268
• Shiba Drive: S/N No 987

Suhrly basswood

While the talk about basswood being less favourable, when it comes to guitar-making, is still active, guitarist Guthrie Govan sheds some insights when he talked to the people at Suhr guitars:

"What I've discovered talking to the Suhr guys, who knows a lot about wood voodoo, is that the most balanced sound you can get is a basswood body, a maple top, maple neck, and some kind of dense rosewood fingerboard."

Despite the education, there are still people out there who equate basswood with quasi-trash... tsk, tsk, tsk...
