Guitar Additional Info


Description
The Midtown Standard covers the sonic spectrum, from hard rock to soft jazz with an elegant, upscale design.

Ultra-playable and super-stylish, two matched Burstbucker pickups power the big, full sound with its hallmark smooth sustain and tremendous tone.
Reintroducing a modern design classic of the late '70s, the special edition RD Artist 40th Anniversary guitar delivers radical looks with versatile tones.

The unique RD body style in solid mahogany complements a mahogany neck with rounded profile and an exotic torrefied granadillo fingerboard, graced with the Gibson historic script logo on the headstock, gold Grover tuners, Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece.

A pair of GEM active pickups deliver improved output and extreme tonal versatility.
