This guitar started as a 2012 Gibson Nighthawk Goldtop, but was retrofitted with gold EVERYTHING. Bring you micrometer and digital microscope to verify all the parts are legit name brand Gibson with the exception of the bridge (which was purchased from the same machining manufacturer who makes the Nighthawk bridges for Gibson, so, samesies). Even the screws were replaced with gold. No expense was spared on this to make it look as good as it plays and sounds. Best part is, nothing was modified, no holes drilled or wires snipped. These are all bolt-on parts which require no permanent modifications to the guitar (just a lot of extra money to acquire and install, lol). The pickup covers are snug and rattle-free, but are not soldered on. Pickups are coil tapped Gibson Burstbuckers 1 and 2. To top it all off, the guitar ships in a limited edition gold Gibson hardshell case if purchased for asking price. This setup provides the true Gold touch to an already outstanding guitar.
