This 2001 Suhr is a stunner.  Their Bengal Burst finish is just about the best for showing off a good flame top.  These guitars also play like a dream with their slim, perfect necks and fret work.

The guitar was purchased in 2001 and stashed. 

It looks new and has been played only a handful of times as it was part of a huge guitar and amp collection. 

This example is all original with the original case and order sheet from Suhr.  The top is a beautiful flame with one of Suhr's most popular finish colors.  Stock JST pickups are in place.

There are no changes, repairs or issues with the guitar whatsoever and we gave it a great setup before listing it.
