Hey guys newbie here and first post :D
I've been gassing for a Suhr for ages, anyone know where I can get one in NZ? Or do I have to get one from overseas?

Overseas. Which sucks because you can't try them out, and with the US dollar and customs you will get pillaged :(

Which model are you looking for? There's a couple of us here that have a few between us and might be able to provide some comment (none for sale though, to my knowledge).

Welcome KNNZ! We all want some new piece of gear here so you are in good company :D There are just a few declared Suhr owners in this community. You just missed a lovely 'vintage relic' Suhr that one of our members was selling...you might find it if you scroll back through the 'Selling' thread in the 'Buy, Sell or Exchange' Forum. So they pop up occasionally, but you are more likely to see Gibson and PRS guitars changing hands here. I

You can also post what you are looking for to the 'Wanted' thread.

If you did want to go the overseas route, I could help you do it pretty painlessly and cheaply. I am the one who sold the relic Suhr and bring guitars over very frequently. I often muse about starting a "hunt and import business".

They do not come up often here.

Question from ignorance of never having played one, but what are the features of a suhr that sets it a part from the usual PRS, Fender or Gibson?

John Suhr lives across the street, but one, from God.
