Really?

Not that i'm going to buy a guitar for that money without trying it but FFS a case would be a gimme if i'm spending that kind of cash?

i think i am brainwashed to liking the idea of a Suhr, never played one.

Have played 3 grand les pauls and was not overly impressed.....

The Suhr gig bag is very good quality though.

slavetothegrind

have you got one?

I've only spoken to one suhr owner before....

I quite like that they're not supplying a case. The way I see it, if you're spending that kinda case, you're going to keep the guitar on a wall hangar if you're in a studio, or in a road case with other guitars if you're gigging at scale. Empty cases just take up too much space, and hard cases are a pain for gigging with (assuming you'll spend that level of cash for a gigging instrument)

slavetothegrind

i suppose you have a point, also you made me smile at " gigging at scale", i wish :-)

As colm says it is a good bag.

I have been rationalising the money.

It is a guitar i will always have, it will always be worth half what i pay for it.

Let the saving begin.....

better off with a good quality gig bag. When i used to gig. I'd have my guitar strapped to my back, amp in one hand and pedal board in the other. Travel light! When i eventually get back on the road i'll be investing in one of these

thanks Fingers, reckon i'll be heading over to the uk to buy in person.

Can't imagine spending that money without trying first! Peach is on my radar!

Yeah they're a good crowd to deal with. I've bought 2 Dr Z amps off them in the past and they gave us a good deal.
