CLASSIC S BODY SHAPE

Retaining the ergonomic curves and double-cutaway comfort of the original S-style design, the Classic S RFM offers superb balance and stage-ready feel. With elegant contours and a player-friendly weight, it’s equally at home in long studio sessions or high-energy performances.

• TONE WOODS: The Classic S RFM features a select Swamp Ash body for articulate, balanced tone—tight low end, singing mids, and chimey highs. The neck is crafted from stunning roasted Flame Maple, paired with either a Roasted Flame Maple or Indian Rosewood fingerboard for enhanced sustain, stability, and aesthetic beauty.
• BODY FINISH: Finished in a high-gloss polyurethane, the Classic S RFM showcases its premium flame maple neck and sleek lines while maximizing resonance and durability. This modern finish enhances the natural tone of the instrument and ensures it looks as good as it sounds—onstage or up close.

IMPECCABLE QUALITY, LEGENDARY PERFORMANCE

With a fast-playing 60’s “C Vintage Standard” neck, compound 9"–12" radius, and rolled fingerboard edges, the Classic S RFM delivers professional-grade playability. Its roasted neck construction enhances stability and resists humidity changes, while PLEK’d stainless steel frets provide flawless feel and intonation.

• NECK PROFILE: The 60’s “C Vintage Standard” neck profile offers a comfortably familiar feel that suits both chord work and fast runs. The roasted Flame Maple adds not just visual appeal, but tonal depth and exceptional neck stability.
• FRETS: Jumbo stainless steel frets provide a smooth, fast playing surface with exceptional durability. Each fretboard is precision-leveled with Suhr’s PLEK process for consistent low action and buzz-free performance.
• NECK JOINT: A contoured 4-bolt neck heel ensures seamless upper-fret access and superior tonal transfer, merging traditional bolt-on character with modern ergonomics.

HARDWARE & ELECTRONICS

Designed for tonal versatility, the Classic S RFM features a Suhr SSV humbucker in the bridge and V60LP single-coils in the neck and middle positions. Whether you're after bold lead tones, glassy cleans, or crunchy rhythm sounds, this HSS setup delivers with clarity and punch. Suhr’s SSCII silent system keeps your single-coils whisper-quiet—ideal for both stage and studio.

• VINTAGE-STYLE TREMOLO: A Gotoh 510 2-post tremolo with a steel block offers fluid pitch control, excellent tuning stability, and enhanced sustain—built for expressive playing without compromise.
• PICKUP CONFIGURATION: Bridge: Suhr SSV humbucker – warm, fat, and dynamic, ideal for overdrive and high-gain tones. Neck & Middle: Suhr V60LP single-coils – vintage sparkle and clarity with modern quiet operation.
  Together, they deliver a wide tonal palette perfect for players who cross genres or need a reliable all-in-one workhorse.

• SUHR LOCKING TUNERS: Elegant and efficient, Suhr locking tuners ensure fast string changes and rock-solid tuning while maintaining a clean, classic headstock silhouette.
