Offered here is a 2024 Gibson Custom Shop RD Custom finished in Ebony Gloss with gold hardware and custom mother-of-pearl inlays. This USA-made Gibson combines the RD’s unmistakable body shape with premium Custom Shop appointments, a long-scale mahogany neck, and the classic pairing of Gibson 490R and 498T pickups.

The deep black finish contrasts beautifully with the gold hardware, while the mother-of-pearl block inlays and custom split-diamond headstock inlay give this RD an especially distinctive appearance.
