The good news: Gibson's Nighthawk is back with a very tempting lipstick singlecoil pickup in the mix, as seen above...
The not-so-good news: It's a limited run *sigh*
Is the Nighthawk an affordable take on the immortal Les Paul? No, it sounds more SG-seque but I've always wanted to try a Gibson without the tune-o-matic bridge...

the finishing is beautiful with the gold hardware!
he he... for me, the finish doesn't matter, the playability & tone are everything :-)
Wait, i thought the bridge pup was suppose to be slanted?
that's the PREVIOUS incarnation- the reason why people avoided the nighthawk was exactly that; they have second thoughts about investing in a guitar with a slanted bridge humbucker. imagine having to replace that pickup if it goes dysfunctional- which other manufacturers out there offer such units off the shelf?
haha thanks sub, now i get it haha :)
But i feeling that the price of this guitar will damn bloody ex, whats more its limited edition, making the price go UP :P
you are right my friend, it's curretly retailing for the price of an LP so the more prudent among us would rather invest in the latter for its stronger re-sale value.
