Re: Check out this one...

I wouldn't put reshaping a headstock passed anyone who would buy that ugly ass guitar to begin with :)

Is there any point in that slanted pickup, other than looking rediculous?
 
Re: Check out this one...

it may be a scam - and prob is, but I found htat its prety hard to get a hold of those weird slanted humbuckers
 
Re: Check out this one...

Yeah, I agree.... the singlecut has a sharper point than any Gibson I have ever seen. Also, the slanted HB??? I raise the BS flag as well!!!!
 
Re: Check out this one...

It may be a scam but those are (or were) all legit Gibson options on a Hawk.

there is no way that is a gibby body, bridge, or knobs..... SCAM!

The body shape, bridge and knobs are all identical to a stock gibson nighthawk. But why on earth mess with the peghead?

here's one with a flametop and middle pickup (there are several variations out there):

It's deffinately a Nighthawk, I love those things (good thing you guys don't, more for mmeeeeeee!!). But the fugly headstock has me puzzled. I wouldn't consider it an "extra", more like "oops, I f-ed up, why did I do that!"

"I hate ugly Gibson headstocks .... so I'll customize it with an even uglier headstock shape"


I bet John Boland was cringing during the process saying to himself "WHY?"

*and on the seventh day, God created the Jackass ... and he slapped his forhead and reread the manual*
