Description
Gibson - 2009 LTD Nighthawk - Electric Guitar - Translucent Amber - w/OHSC - USED
The Gibson Nighthawk 2009 is a modern revival of a cult classic, blending vintage Gibson craftsmanship with contemporary design and tonal versatility. With its curvier silhouette and chambered body, the Nighthawk offers a lighter, more ergonomic alternative to the Les Paul, while still delivering the rich, resonant tone Gibson is known for. Featuring a stunning AAA maple top, a P-90/498T pickup combo, and premium hardware, this guitar is a tone chameleon — equally at home in blues, rock, or alternative settings.
This rare Gibson is in great condition and has been lightly used. It includes the certificate of authenticity as well as the original hardshell case. Please reference photos for more cosmetic details and don't miss out on this amazing deal, it will not be here long!
