Second Hand 1998 Gibson Limited Edition BluesHawk with Maestro Tremolo
Second Hand 1998 Gibson Limited Edition BluesHawk with Maestro Tremolo
Comes original tan Gibson hard case. 8/10 condition, does have a bit of players wear and tear (As seen in pictures)
Are you a Gibson head who has every model under the sun and want to try something a bit different or someone who likes the weird side of Gibson! Well look no further because we have the answer... The BluesHawk, this thing is the weird cousin of a Les Paul, a 355 and strangely a Fender, thats right Fender!!
Gibson's Hawk series was introduced in 1993, beginning with the Night Hawk and followed by the Hawk and Blues Hawk models in '96. (Gibson themselves seemed unable to ever decide whether the spelling was Night Hawk, Nighthawk or NightHawk, Blues Hawk, Blueshawk or BluesHawk) There was a bewildering number of Night Hawk variations, (nine in all!), just one of the Hawk, while for a couple of years the Blues Hawk could be ordered with Gibson's Maestro tremolo system. The public seemed not to care overly much for the Hawk and Night Hawk, with both disappearing by the new millennium. The Blues Hawk however was the star of the range, remaining in production until 2006 and making a lot of fans along the way. Big name Blues Hawk players include Nelly Furtado, and the legendary Joe Walsh, while Will Ray of the Hellecasters reckons that owning a Blues Hawk is "like having a Les Paul, an ES-345, a Strat, a Tele and an ASAT, all rolled into one."
