Advanced response - Gibson style
This is where Gibson get modern. Although many players love that old-school feel, we don't appreciate the lack of comfort as guitarists. Long, enduring sets and studio sessions are now a breeze to play. This is thanks to Gibson's advanced response neck profile. It not only provides comfort in each position up and down the neck, but it comes with a flatter fingerboard radius. This allows you to achieve string bends and play with iconic style in the 21st century. A classic Gibson sound - but with playability made for you, the modern musician.
