PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

We're proud to present this beautiful Suhr Classic J bass in a classic Black finish!

If you're looking at this, chances are you're already familiar with the impeccable reputation that Suhr have built for themselves over the years. Known for their high-end boutique hot-rodded guitars and basses, the craftsmanship and playability of this J is unparalleled. 

It's a tried and true, no-nonsense design... But refined. Elevated. Each of the spec choices was made with functionality, quality, elegance, and class in mind while extra care was made to make sure it feels effortless to play. It's extremely well-built and sounds like the perfect balance of vintage tone and boutique build quality. The fretwork is immaculate, and right out of the box, the action was nice and low. With the discerning bassists here at the shop having had the privilege of playing a few 60's J basses in the past, it's not an exaggeration to say that this is as close as you can get to duplicating that sound out of a brand-new instrument. 

Not that we didn't expect this to be an incredible bass, but it's always nice when something so simple can be so inspiring!
