Suhr Mateus Asato Classic T II HH White

Mateus Asato's HH White Classic T II with Lollar Gold Foils opening up a whole new tonal palette

The Suhr Mateus Asato Classic T II HH White is Mateus Asato's second signature guitar, and it fundamentally differs from the SS version. Where the SS variant opts for the classic T-type single coil sound, the HH White goes in a completely different direction: two Lollar Gold Foil pickups that provide a warm, complex, and slightly compressed sound that you won't find with any other pickup configuration. The MA White finish on the Alder body is sleek and timeless, and the Custom Neck Profile that Asato developed with Suhr gives the guitar a playing feel that is immediately recognizable.

The Roasted Maple neck with Indian Rosewood fretboard and Mateus Asato Custom Neck Profile (.810"-.890") plays comfortably and invitingly, with 22 Heavy Stainless Steel frets, dot inlays, and a 9"-12" compound radius. Two Lollar Gold Foil pickups via a 3-way switch with volume and tone. The Gotoh 510 2-Post bridge with bent saddle and steel block gives the guitar a modern, stable foundation. Suhr locking tuners, weight 3.5 kg, scale 25.5", includes hardshell case.

The Lollar Gold Foil is a pickup with a rich history in the world of vintage guitars. It sounds warm, full, and slightly compressed, with a character that lies somewhere between a single coil and a humbucker. In combination with the Custom Neck Profile and the Heavy Stainless Steel frets, the Classic T II HH White has a playing feel and a tone that you will find in few other guitars in this segment.
