❌SOLD❌ Suhr Modern Custom Claro Walnut HSH, 2015

❌SOLD❌  Suhr Modern Custom Claro Walnut HSH, 2015

This lovely Suhr Modern Custom sports a Claro Walnut top on a Spanish Cedar body, paired with a Pau Ferro neck and Macassar Ebony fingerboard!   Claro Walnut is also known as ‘California Black Walnut’.  Spanish Cedar or ‘Cedro’ is very commonly used for classical guitar necks, and for bodies on Suhr guitars. A quirk of the Suhr process is that the serial number is established at time of order, sometimes well before the instrument construction is begun, let alone finished.   While these numbers are consecutive, that doesn’t always match the sequence pieces are completed so dating via serial number is tougher.

Here is something not seen every day – a Suhr Modern Carved Top model with a chambered Lacewood top, Cedar back body. Suhr models start at professional grade and are largely custom order.

❌SOLD❌ Larrivee L-09 Lacewood Steel String Acoustic Guitar, 2006

❌SOLD❌ Larrivee L-09 Lacewood Steel String Acoustic Guitar, 2006

The Larrivee L-09 uses a body design based on something Jean Larrivee knows very well – the proportions of the Hauser-style classical guitar. Larrivee’s LS body makes a more direct comparison, while the L body is larger; both take the proportions and adapt their structures for steel string guitars.
