- John Suhr has been building highly modified Classic S guitars for legendary award winning Jazz and Blues guitarist Scott Henderson since 1991. When John started Suhr Guitars twenty years ago, Scott was his first endorser. After building a number of iterations over the years, John and Scott have honed Scott’s particular guitar specs to what they are today and now we are making Scott’s Signature guitar available to everyone.

Scott is a perfect amalgam of my all time favorite players (Hendrix, Holdsworth, Beck, VH, Johnson); I can listen to him play for hours.
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
Well said, I feel completely the same about him!! I love them all, but as you said.... he has the tremolo finesse of Jeff Beck and also that modern jazz harmonies of Holdsworth yet the power and energy of Jimi Hendrix.
Scott Henderson is a national treasure!!! So amazing and so underrated.
I agree, Scott is a tremendous player, but I don’t think he is underrated - he’s very highly regarded
@@johnbuell8035 I agree. Highly regarded
For me he sounds terrible
He's not your go to poster guy but his playing is phenomenal.
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
Probably my favourite guitarist of all time.
Wonderful guitar!
Vibe station is my favorite guitar album of all time.
Seconded. I love Holdsworth, but Vibe Station just takes creativity to a new level. Every time I listen to it I get new rewards.
Yay Man! I just bought your new CD and Tribal Tech X! I've been a fan half my life and I met you in Norway below stage a long time ago. A guy talking about his grandfather playing drums for such a long time you got super bored. I just stood and watched you in awe. Great melodies! Happy to see you got sphinx on CD. I love the emotion you put into the songs. No performance is the same.

Scott, thank you for being the nicest badass on the planet. I love your attention to detail in your instrument. Being a luthier, most guitarists/bassist don't give two shits as to how far someone went to make that guitar perfect for their own personal needs as a musician.
Congratulations Scott ! Wonderful guitar and worthy of your demanding style ! I will own one, one day ! :)
Im loving every second!!! I love ur use of dissonant sounding modes

What I liked most about this vid was the behind the scenes factory shots….infinitely interesting to me…
I enjoyed the video! Keep it up!
Best gutar 4 the best fusion player. I saw Scott live many times and I can confirm that his sound is heavenly. He is obviously audiophile among guitar players, cares about any little thing into his setup as exact cable length etc.
I had any kind of Gibson, fenders, but my suhr SH signature still my favorite and more versatile guitar since the nineties. Not only for blues or fusion but also if you play covers in a top 40 situation you can emulate any styles with it, and play till the end of the night without being hurt in your hand or your back, ( îm getting old).
I really want one!
Gorgeous. And compelling. And that's just the playing. Been toying with a Michael Landau 63' Strat - will compare. If we get them in UK.
I just bought a Surf-Green Suhr Classic S Antique HSS and it is fabulous. It's absolutely great to play, it sounds superb, both clean and with drive (sounds slightly better with gain) and is the most well made guitar I've ever got my hands on. It doesn't have a roasted maple neck, as I already have an American Pro Fender Strat with a roasted maple neck/fretboard which is a grand cheaper but excellent also. Like this on it has an Indian 'dark' rosewood fretboard.
Memorable guitarist
Easy to play, hard to pay. 😭😭
SCOTT HENDERSON IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLAYERS, CUDOS !!!
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
I love the color, can't go wrong with a Suhr imho.
Surf-Green Suhr Classic S HSS Antique just in at Westcoast Guitars Vancouver Canada.

Sphinx is a fantastic song!!!
Queria saber que microfonos pickup usa scott henderson desde tore house hasta hoy
What is the background music you hear? I know it's Scott Henderson, very similar to Guthrie Govan in the Aristocrats
Don't get me wrong, but Scott Henderson was here long berfore Guthrie Govan became famous at all. I see Guthrie as a collector box of guitar history.
the tune is Sphinx
Niteblub Thank you very much 🙏🏼
Henderson was killing in the guitar before Govan was even thinking about it
dionysis daras Yeah: he's "killing", alright, by using that damn whammy bar incessantly...
sounds like a perfect strat recipe

Scott's a monster. Check out his GuitarWank podcast if you haven't already. Question: is the "noiseless system" passive? The cutouts look like there is a large cavity for something.
It is passive on all models except those with P90's. With the P90 system, there is a battery but the guitar and pickups are not active and not buffered. The Battery is only there for the noise cancelation when the battery dies the noise comes back, simple as that. - John Suhr
Check out Iliech’s website.....he is the inventor of this noiseless backcover system,i think......
Pretty 'Suhr' that Scott has gone through Cronenberg's teleportation machine (The Fly) because he plays with alien power but he has got more luck because the insect didn't fly in the teleportation egg when he did his trip.

Is Scott still alive? His last uploads are from 5 years ago… and nobody upload stuff from him anymore
What is the name of the backing track to this video ? Thanks. Happy New Year .
Sphinx
On this model, is the back of the neck parallel to the back of the guitar body (like on a normal Strat) or is the neck rotated? Are there any Suhr guitars with a rotated neck? (Eg; the neck rout on the treble side is cut a bit deeper into the body, and if you sight down the back of the neck from the peghead and look where the screws go through the body into the neck, you would see a taper, not a rectangle.
Not sure what you mean but the neck is parallel to the body. what are you trying to achieve that setting the string height wouldn't solve?
Suhr CustomThanks for replying to my question. I'm exactly Scott's age about 62 or 63 and in my older age it is become a little bit more difficult to make the right angle bend that's necessary to reach around the guitar neck with my wrist. The thought occurred to me that if the entire neck was twisted away from me it would be easier to make that angle If you look at videos of Freddie Green, he has the guitar almost flat in his lap when he plays and of course his action was ridiculous, but what I'm talking about is going in the other direction... unwinding the neck making it so that I don't have to reach around the neck quite so much to finger the guitar. It's just a piece of curiosity. I have seen a guitar that did do this and I can't recall what brand it was and I did not try the guitar so I can't say if that solved the problem. Often at the end of a night my wrist is a little bit painful from having to make that sharp bend to reach around the neck and that was the thing I was asking about. I realize that would be a quirky mfg problem...or two.
What I would suggest is to mount the strap button on the neck plate, this will tilt the guitar neck more than the twisted neck Idea.
Scott is my No 1 Player. Basta!
My Satin has a D-shaped neck as well
The stainless steel frets are much of what you hear. More than the pickups.
I wonder what are the biggest differences between this and a fender strat other than the roasted maple. I noticed Ian Thornley too plays some suhr strats. Why not just play the fender ones? Fender custom can make any specs you want, right?
Not hating on suhr here. I love suhr guitars too.
Fender doesn't offer stainless steel frets Roasted maple necks or the silent single coil system
I mean no disrespect to Fender but I haven't played a Fender that comes close to a Suhr. All the little details add up. But, not everyone would agree and Fender sure isn't hurting for business.
That's great. The guitar can use the traditional bridge which not only sounds better but looks better as well. Otherwise you have to go through all that work, defacing the guitar and hoping you didn't take out wood by mistake in the first place, which I've seen happen in close up pictures of people routing out the pickup mounts to replace mini humbuckers with standard humbuckers, just to end up with something that looks like a mess. Even if your big floating/pivoting or whatever noticeable obtrusive bridge replacement comes out OK with no disasters, you still end up losing the tonality just like he says. Just from Scott's description, they've done a phenomenal job with this guitar. Many modifications have been made in the past that haven't come out too well.

Hey Scott! I've got a board tape from the FAU Rathskellar around here somewhere...
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
Bottom line it's the same primitive Fender Strat with tweaking, so what's new?
If it ain't broke just tweak it...
Nothing except those micheal landau pickups
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
I want one of This 😭
Does this one bypass the tone controls in the 2 and 4 positions?
No Scott Changed that to our stock wiring as he did on all his guitars, one tone does the bridge position, the other tone does all other positions
Yeah, I do. I lay a couple of fractal 500's over the bridge.
Mr. Suhr, can you please tell me how to "fix" traditional F vintage 6 screw vibrato bridge? Big thanks!

A quick question - why does Scott not use stainless steel frets?
Scott's answer from his forum page: "I don't like stainless steel frets - they're brighter than nickel and the last thing I need on stage is more treble."
smooth
Wow. How much
Of course Scott isn't satisfied with the usual Stratocasters before he had the custom Suhr built. His playing is aggressive and the guitar has to hold up as he forces his sounds to come out of the neck and strings. It's pretty simple. Scott has to have a guitar that will actually hold up to his playing before you even get to the pickups and sound.
Hey Scott Ron says hi
cool
The jack on the side is also better.
I used to feel that way, but now I often practice around the house with a Vox amPlug. A front-mounted jack means I don't have to worry about it sticking out the edge of the guitar and smacking against things.
Its my personal preference which Scott likes but you can just get our Classic which has a face jack.
With the face jack the arm can hit the cable, all with a side jack you can use a right angle cable and wrap it around the strap to lock it down.
Suhr Custom Sound's Good.
Suhr Custom could you also get a Classic with a 6 screw bridge? I love the look of your Classic
, but prefer the vintage 6 screw trem over the 2 point.
Looks like a jeff Beck strat
wish i had money....
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
it s a very very custom shop sound more better than Strat
フケちゃったなあ～～
$3500 retail. Way cheaper and far better than some piece of junk vintage guitar.
Anyone out there need a kidney? Or know someone who does?
(Get a Schecter Nick Johnston if you don't find a kidney buyer)
Sorry man, but Scott, his way of playing, does not look like anybody, not even Guthrie......
Guitar version of a tricked-out street race car; lovely. Save your $$$...
He has his own signature overdrive pedal now.
Sounds like grandmother playing
they think we have money for nothing
,
every guitar is perfect if you don't pay for it :D
Seriously? I can't count the number of offers I've turned down for free guitars. Your statement is insulting.
From the man himself lol! Watch what you say about others
There you go....
Obviously you’ve never picked up a Suhr! You’re a fool and that is an ignorant statement.
you got it wrong on this one ,I got to meet scott at G.I.T. and he was all about trying to help you get tones and sounds ,ideas that were out of reach , he really wanted you to get ahead,he listened and he really got into to it.i don't ever even remember him taking a break. he stayed almost til he had to be at a gig.
More of this tone wood bullshit
