While prolific guitar sideman Pete Thorn may refer to himself as a 'guitar nerd' - his resume proves he's anything but. His effortless, dynamic playing have landed him onstage alongside such legendary artists as Don Henley, Chris Cornell and Melissa Etheridge among others - and his debut solo CD Guitar Nerd garnered critical praise and landed on CD Baby’s top selling albums list. Pete has been a Suhr artist for over 10 years, and has previously partnered with Suhr to design and produce his signature PT100 amplifier and Thornbucker pickups. The guitar is based off of a custom spec Suhr Standard model that Pete has used extensively in the studio and on tour. It's equipped with Thornbucker pickups (with pickup rings, a first for Suhr) and a super comfortable and fast Even C Slim neck. This guitar is designed to be a sleek, versatile tone machine with a stunning yet understated look look that exudes class and rock and roll attitude.
