Duane Eddy has long been known as the master of “twang,” and Gibson Custom is proud to honor Eddy’s legacy with the new Duane Eddy Signature archtop – a traditional archtop hollowbody with many unique, modern appointments, including a maple top and a combination of magnetic and piezo pickups. The body has the familiar shape of Gibson's classic L-5 model, with a rounded Venetian cutaway. But at 16” wide it is one inch smaller than the L-5, making it unique in the Gibson line. Two single-coil pickups – custom-designed to Eddy's personal specs by pickup guru Seymour Duncan – produce a deep, clear voice, perfect for drenching in reverb. An additional transducer bridge pickup provides pure acoustic tone, and the model’s custom-designed controls let you blend the electric and acoustic tones for a variety of sonic capabilities. Other unique appointments include a maple/walnut slim neck with ebony fingerboard, pearl “moustache” fingerboard inlays, a “Duane Eddy”-engraved pickguard, nickel hardware and a Bigsby vibrola tailpiece. The guitar comes painted in a Rockabilly Brown finish, exclusive to this signature model. The Duane Eddy Signature archtop from Gibson Custom is produced is strictly limited numbers, and each one comes with its own Gibson Custom case and certificate of authenticity.
