Overview
Brand name:
Product:
- electric guitars
Series name:
The original Byrdland model introduced in the 1950s was named after Nashville session guitarists Billy Byrd and Hank Garland. This model is a Gibson Custom Shop reissue. It has a reduced scale length (23 1/2”) and extra thin neck. (I'm guessing that Billy and Hank had small hands). The body style is archtop - but it is thinner than a typical archtop at 2.5 inches - and this helps reduce feedback. This model comes with either rounded Venetian cutaway or sharp Florentine cutaway.
