Suhr / Standard Legacy / 2021 / Suhr Burst / Guitar
|
The Suhr Standard Legacy guitars, are everything we were looking for, as we wanted to recreate a model with the 1984 Knopfler/Pensa Suhr vibe, but without the hefty price tag.
All of a sudden Suhr announced these “secret” guitars in early 2021, and we have been so excited about being able to break the news.
All of these guitars are made from an African Okoume body, with a figured Maple top, and available with either Floyd Rose or Gotoh 510 tremolo. All are equipped with EMG SA/SA/85 pickups, and a black gloss headstock. These guitars are the 80’s revisited, and if you once fell in love with that era, where Pensa Suhr, Valley Arts and other great builders were turning out great guitars, its impossible not to love these instruments from John Suhr & Co.

Guitar Gandhi, Denmark 
Guitar Gandhi was born out of the love for guitar, and the world around it.
At Guitar Gandhi, all involved are guitar/bassplayers on different levels, and experienced people from the music industry, whether its about sales, purchase or repairs and service.
At times, where asian instruments are becoming cheaper and better, its hard to separate good from bad, and measure the exact value of an instrument.
99 Euros will get you an instrument that actually is playable, and can be a good start for someone, but it is still a 99 Euro guitar.
So we thought it would make sense to go in a different direction and sell, not only a great instrument, but the people behind it. Dedicated designers and builders, who put their names and faces behind what they do.
We are not here to conquer the world, but to have fun with products that we would love to play ourselves.
And we want YOU to have fun, when purchasing new products from us.
The music business is, more than ever, divided between “Big Buck” companies that are efficient and good at what they do, and local specialty stores, working out of love for what they do.
We don’t need (or want) to sell 99 Euro guitars, that base is already covered by online giants, and we don’t want to go there.
Guitar Gandhi has no obligations towards a certain brand, and no pressure from factories or distributors. We buy and sell exclusive products, that are well made and will stand the test of time. And most importantly – we buy what WE want!
Our only goal is to give YOU the best service, and the best products.
We love “extras” in any shape or form, and we check every instrument leaving the house. We have our luthiers at hand, taking care of all instruments going in and out of the house. And we always add a little extra, when you buy from us. Like i.e. the Gandhi Goodie Bag, which contains necessities you need.
The Gandhi Goodie Bag is complementary with every guitar you purchase!
It is our sincere hope, that you will enjoy our website, and be inspired to make your next purchase with us, whether it’s a pickup, spare parts or a new guitar.
Enjoy!
