Key Features
The Gibson Nighthawk Standard 20th Anniversary model celebrates two decades of one of Gibson's most innovative electric guitar designs. Originally introduced in 1993, the Nighthawk combined traditional Gibson craftsmanship with enhanced versatility and modern ergonomics, creating a unique instrument capable of covering a wide range of musical styles.
Built in the USA, the 2013 Nighthawk Standard features a lightweight mahogany body with a carved maple top, delivering excellent resonance and sustain. Its distinctive pickup configuration combines humbucker and single-coil tones, while push-pull switching options provide a broad tonal palette suitable for everything from blues and classic rock to contemporary genres.
The comfortable neck profile, reduced body weight and excellent upper fret access make the Nighthawk an exceptionally playable guitar, offering a compelling alternative to more traditional Gibson models.
