Gibson Nighthawk In Pelham Blue

Gibson Nighthawk in Pelham Blue

Solid mahogany body with a glued-in neck made from solid quarter-sawn mahogany

The Gibson Nighthawk Studio Electric Guitar, in Pelham Blue from Gibson USA features a new pickup array and switching, new tonewoods and Pelham Blue finish top-hat knobs in high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. The Nighthawk Studio is superbly playable, thanks to the first-class craftsmanship you have come to expect from Gibson USA.

The Nighthawk Studio has been designed from the ground up to provide an updated playing feel, superb resonance and sustain, and a big, bold tone, as well as a more contemporary look. It has a solid mahogany body with a glued-in neck made from solid quarter-sawn mahogany, carved to a traditional SlimTaper profile. The neck is topped with a 22-fret fingerboard made from torrefied maple, a super sturdy and clear-sounding heat-treated hardwood, and a Nighthawk headstock with mother-of-pearl Gibson logo and holly inlay. Gibson's set-neck construction retains the punch and endless sustain that is expect from any great double-'bucker axe. Through-body stringing coupled with a unique and highly adjustable Nighthawk bridge and a PLEK-cut Corian nut further enhance resonance and sustain.

The Nighthawk Studio packs a pair of Gibson's popular BurstBucker humbuckers—loaded in with double-black open coils—a BB1 in the neck position and a slightly hotter BB2 in the bridge. Made with unpolished Alnico II magnets and authentic 42-AWG enamel-coated wire, these are some of the most accurate reproductions of vintage PAF humbuckers available today. They are enhanced with independent push-pull switching on the master volume and master tone controls to split the coils of each unit, yielding useful single-coil tones independently or in combination through the three-way selector switch.
