Description
The '90s saw Gibson experimenting with some interesting designs & the Nighthawk series is probably the most popular model to come out of that decade. This 3-pickup Standard is easily the best example we've had here in the shop. It features an absolutely gorgeous flame maple top under a stunning Firburst finish & loaded with three totally different pickups, offering a wide array of tonal pleasures. The slim taper neck is super comfy to play & the gold hardware accents the overall beauty of this awesome guitar. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action, so it's ready to play straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: Exceptionally clean for being a quarter century old! There are various teeny tiny nicks & dings here & there along with mild surface scratches, but really for the most part the guitar looks marvelous for its age.
