High-Gloss Automotive Vibe Meets Precision Hybrid-Picking Performance
The Guitar Sanctuary is proud to present the Suhr Andy Wood Signature Modern T in high-gloss AW Silver. Co-designed by virtuoso Andy Wood and John Suhr, the 2023 variant marks a striking departure from Andy's classic sandblasted finishes, featuring a head-turning, automotive-inspired AW Silver gloss finish over a select Swamp Ash body.
Engineered for high-speed virtuosity across country, rock, and fusion, this guitar combines a lightweight Swamp Ash body with a Roasted Maple neck and fingerboard. The neck features Suhr's comfortable Modern Elliptical profile (.780"–.830"), an ultra-flat 16" fingerboard radius, and 24 jumbo stainless steel frets for effortless hybrid picking and clean, pitch-perfect string bends. Hardware is anchored by a modified Wilkinson 3-saddle Classic T bridge with lip relief, delivering authentic vintage brass-saddle snap while remaining comfortable for palm-muting.
Tonal versatility is driven by Andy's signature Suhr Woodshed T single-coil pickups. Paired with Suhr's Active SSCII (Silent Single Coil II) System, these pickups deliver fat, woody low-end, articulate midrange punch, and bell-like high-end chime—all completely free of 60-cycle hum on stage or in the studio.
Tone & Application Profile:
- Tone Profile: Punchy, Woody, Articulate, and Chimey with Zero 60-Cycle Hum
- Best For: Modern Country, Hybrid-Picking, Rock, Fusion, Studio Tracking, and Touring
- Compared To: Standard Telecaster-style guitars that lack a flat 16" fretboard radius, stainless steel frets, and active noise-cancelling single-coils
- Sanctuary Expert Note: The AW Silver gloss finish gives Andy's signature model a sleek, modern look that pops under stage lights. Combined with the flat 16" radius and noise-free Woodshed pickups, it's one of the most playable and responsive T-style guitars in our shop.
