Suhr Guitar!

[xklusivly4u]

I should have never looked at this thread. Now major GAS attack !

Where do you guys get Suhr in Singapore? Are they all imported or Does Guitar77 has nice selections of Suhr guitars? Their website only shows one Suhr guitar. How about prices compare to US prices?

 

[relinquish69]

being the distributor, I'm sure their prices would be competitive. I just got some nice Suhr T shirts from there. niceeee!

Sadly to say this... Getting online is cheaper...

This has to be the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing this.

My humble contribution. I got this off TGP. Shame my chops are really not up to it haha.

How much cheaper anyway? If you were to ship from overseas, you have to take note of the shipping + GST too. 7% is very painful.

Even with the Shipping + GST 7% it is still cheaper. Won't wanna start a price war here but did some research and in the end i decided to get online

7% is not too bad, when I imported a guitar from Japan to the UK, I paid 25% in tax. OUCH ! But still cheaper than local prices

Any tips on dealers who ship to Singapore?

When you buy online oversea you can ask them to ship to you. About $200USD for Shipping

This is mine.Moderns are really sweet i recommend that anyone who wants a suhr order direct. 30% off list price plus really fast correspondence.No middleman so you can make sure your order really is what you want and be really picky.They do wonderful progress pictures too.

 

[dodgethis]

30% you say. Seven-string Modern, here I come!

 

[eugeneelgr]

Yep be sure to mention it though.Do take note that this was from 2 years back.They may not have this discount now i'm not sure.And when i bought there wasnt a dealer in singapore so i could buy direct.Now guitar 77 is official dealer. They had a deal with woodworkz also but i dunno why the deal went off.There were never suhrs in woodworkz alsh and i heard theres a huge wait list already.Kinda unfair since i bought mine and got it in about 2 months haha!Was damn lucky.

I'm going to throw my vote for buying second hand from TGP. If you don't wanna ship yourself, get David at Ebenex to do it. Now the market in the US is somewhat depressed and, although Suhrs are holding their value better than almost anything, they are still cheaper.

I paid the equivalent of 3.2k SGD all in getting the Suhr shipped through Ebenex (so that's with exchange rates, shipping and GST). Mine is the blue one. I think it's not a bad deal.

 

[zac89]

so what sites or how did you go about ordering one? i think quite a few people here are interested to know the process =)

Nice to see some beautiful Suhrs on this thread … must be many more out there.

Those who want to custom order a Suhr guitar should note that Suhr does not offer any discount for custom guitars, but dealers do. So, the cheaper way is to order from a Suhr dealer instead of Suhr. The spec sheet from Suhr shows the LIST price. The Dealer (MAP) price is 70% of the list price. That is the lowest price Suhr dealers can advertise a guitar, but they can sell it for less.

Some dealers offer 10% discount on custom orders. So, here's the formula for a custom order.

Final cost = LIST Price x 0.7 x 0.9 + shipping charge
or
Final cost = LIST Price x 0.63 + shipping charge

I bought my 3 Suhr guitars online from the US – Martin Music, Boston Guitar & Rocket Music. Expect to pay from US$175 (USPS Express) to US$300 (UPS/Fedex) shipping cost + 7% GST. Shipment normally takes about 7 to 10 days to arrive.

Here are the spec of my Suhr guitars – highlights only :-

1. Suhr Classic, (Charcoal Frost Metallic) alder body, maple w/ Pau Ferro neck, D shape neck .800-.880, 10”-14” radius, signed & painted matching headstock, JST V60’s single JST V54’s single and JST Aldrich Bridge Humbucker.

2. Suhr Classic, (Black) tortoise shell pickguard, alder body, maple w/ Brazilian rosewood neck, 60’s C Vintage neck .810-.930, 9”-12” radius, push pull tone knob, JST FL single coils and JST SSV Humbucker

3. Suhr Modern (Light Bengal Burst). It is actually a Guthrie Govan signature model (with Tremol-No, blower switch, Mahogany w/ Pau Ferro neck, 16" radius, etc) with the following tweaks >> Headstock painted black, chrome knobs, Modern Elliptical .780-.830 (as compared to the stock .800-.850)
