Great presentation. Perfect blend of talking and playing. Musicianship was stellar. Knowledge of the guitar’s specs was apparent and well articulated. Demonstration and explanation of the different pickup configurations via the 5 position blade switch was the best I have seen and more importantly, heard. Reminds me of the Music Man Sabre. Have you compared the two?
The Wilkinson bridge on this guitar will retrofit a guitar previously fitted with a Gotoh 510, or you can buy the locking saddles and put them on an existing 510.
What specifically stands out to you? To me… Room + mic(s) + speakers + amp + hands… so many variables. You may be referring to something more refined than I am, but it’s always funny to me how I’ll sound different than someone else playing the same everything in the same place.
We did indeed, Pete's guitars never hang around for long! If you're interested in getting your hands on one of the next batch drop us a line at info@peachguitars.com and we'll sort you out!
I have one of these (see my profile photo!) that I bought from Peach. Had it a couple of years now, and the only thing I’d change on it would be to put a Floyd trem on there, but that’s just personal preference and because I’m used to having them on my other guitars - the trem that’s on there is still very good. Also maybe swap the wiring round on the pickup selector for the 2 neck positions - always feels a bit strange trying to find position 2 for the humbucker setting.
@@huussI’d say it can do pretty much anything! The pickups aren’t too hot, so a blues gig should sound brilliant with the neck pickup (which can also be split to sound like a single coil).
@@huuss It’s medium output I’d say. It can’t be split, but it can be switched from series to parallel so it sounds like a single coil. (using the push / pull tone control)
I subscribe to this channel, but this video hasn’t appeared in my feed, I wonder why that is? What else have I missed?! I just stumbled across it in the “Recommended” section. Anyway, awesome tones as usual, and I have a Suhr Standard Pete Thorn exactly like that one that I bought from Peach a couple of years back 😃

Love that guitar, but wish he would have found a better place for the pup selector. It's why I don't own a strat. My hand is always bumping the dern thing out of position.
do you notice a significant drop in volume when coil tapping? especially in the neck position? I notice it much more than any other coil splitting guitar I have
Great sounds. I wish Pete Townsends guitar tech would put this guitar into Pete's hands. Far more beef than the Strat's he uses these days. It might go some way to addressing the return of the Les Paul sound whilst keeping a nice wirey Strat option and offering a lighter load. (I felt a Thownsend suggestion from the chords at times).
I want to like this model but the skinny shredder neck profile (similar to a Charvel or Ibanez), stainless frets, jumbo frets, and polyurethane finish ruin it.
You do get what you pay for, an excellent built versatile instrument. Other guitars like PRS 10 tops can go for $1000-2000 more so I say it is priced fairly for the craftsmanship and tech you get.
Hey great video you guys! Thanks so much for this!
오~ 본인 등판! I love you Pete!
Dang Jack, your playing is so good man. Fantastic sounds! Could tell you enjoyed that one.
Saw Pete thorn perform last night in London. England with the classic rock show, he was as usual fantastic
Great video, Great Guitar, Great amp Great overdrive pedal, Great playing young man👍🏼

Thanks for the kind words, David! We haven't had a Sabre in stock yet, but when we do, we'll certainly try and include the two in a video!
I am looking at this guitar and the PRS DGT. Which do you think is the most versatile for an 80s cover band?
Those distorted bridge tone are very Nuno-esk. What a great guitar. Tonelust.
The Wilkinson bridge on this guitar will retrofit a guitar previously fitted with a Gotoh 510, or you can buy the locking saddles and put them on an existing 510.
is that an statement or question? because that would really be good news
@@NicolasLaucirica It is a clear and accurate statement.
Thank you. I love your playing and was curious about this guitar since there is one at Jerry’s Lefties in Sarasota, Florida.
I have and love that guitar! Great review.
Jack you are the man.
Fantastic review, tyvm.
One correction: frets are Jumbo (.057″x.110″), NOT medium Jumbo as stated in the review.
Great demo. That's the one Suhr guitar that I would buy.
Interesting how this sounds so very different to when Pete plays it. Not bad, just different.

Its a great guitar, I can feel an upgrade coming on...Nicely played btw!.
Great demo! Sounds killer.
I'm looking to get the Suhr Classic S HSS with a Thornbucker but may just have to check this one out and it's only 1k more! Great demo.
Make sure to check out our website for it! Suhr Pete Thorn Signature Standard Black: bit.ly/2UBfAoe
Only 1k... more😲😲
The Swiss Army Knife of guitars.
Damn fine playing- #petethorn would be proud.
Indeed I am!
This video was only posted a month ago and the website has no Pete Thorn guitars in stock today. Did you sell them that quickly?

hello sir I'd like to ask if is this guitar able to get vintage sounds ? for example for a simple blues gigg will it be too much as volume and sound ?
@@huussI’d say it can do pretty much anything! The pickups aren’t too hot, so a blues gig should sound brilliant with the neck pickup (which can also be split to sound like a single coil).
@@guitardave thanks for the anwer sir what about bridge pickup it is a bit hotter I guess but i can be split also ? 🎻😊
@@huuss It’s medium output I’d say. It can’t be split, but it can be switched from series to parallel so it sounds like a single coil. (using the push / pull tone control)
@@guitardave ❤🎻🎶 thanks sir
I hope they update this model with the wider 1.687 nut width like the new Pete Thorn signature HSS.
Great review!! Thanks
I want that guitar!!

This video makes me want to play guitar
Love that guitar, but wish he would have found a better place for the pup selector. It's why I don't own a strat. My hand is always bumping the dern thing out of position.
You get used to that when you play one. I had that problem early in my strat days (don’t think those days will ever end).
do you notice a significant drop in volume when coil tapping? especially in the neck position? I notice it much more than any other coil splitting guitar I have
Yes it's very noticeable.... I don't like it but have gotten over it. The guitar plays so well.
Great sounds. I wish Pete Townsends guitar tech would put this guitar into Pete's hands. Far more beef than the Strat's he uses these days. It might go some way to addressing the return of the Les Paul sound whilst keeping a nice wirey Strat option and offering a lighter load.

Who? Simon?
The same in P90 🙏 !
Aren’t there Jumbo frets? Rather than medium Jumbo
First very nice for the day, great playing
I want to like this model but the skinny shredder neck profile (similar to a Charvel or Ibanez), stainless frets, jumbo frets, and polyurethane finish ruin it.
is he movie star?very handsome,like me.
in coffin gold
Blá Blá Blá Blá Blá...
Black…
Nice guitar but... too much money.
You do get what you pay for, an excellent built versatile instrument. Other guitars like PRS 10 tops can go for $1000-2000 more so I say it is priced fairly for the craftsmanship and tech you get.
I don’t believe the body is chambered.
Yeah I've never heard that before either
Yes, the body is chambered. Pete has said so and it’s listed as chambered on Suhr’s site.
