Another vote for Suhr here. I have a Modern Carved-Top and a Classic S HSS. Two totally different guitars in sound and feel but consistent in top-notch quality. Plus, Suhr stands behind the quality of his guitars 100%. There’s a thread on the Gear Page in which someone mentioned that his new Suhr has a dead spot and John Suhr personally replied telling the guy that he’s making a new neck for him.
I’ve have a lot of high end Fenders that I loved. Some were better than others in quality (loose neck pockets, pick guard gaps, badly filed nut slots, etc.). One of my Strats was absolutely flawless and I only sold it because it didn’t have stainless steel frets. \
Good luck on your search! There’s a lot of right answers.
