In addition to its traditional magnetic humbucking pickups, a GraphTech Ghost piezo bridge and related electronics are designed to provide an “authentic acoustic guitar sound that can be used entirely on its own, patched parallel to the magnetic pickups through two amps, or blended with the traditional tone, ” according to Gibson.
It comes with its hand-stained Trans Black AAA-flame maple top and trim package – featuring a truss-rod cover engraved with “Blackwater” in silver. Plus, it features Kroeger’s idea of adding white star decals along the upper back fretboard, aligned with the standard fret markers, which allow you to see where your hand is positioned when playing on a darkened stage.
Features:
- Hand-stained Ebony AAA Maple Top
- Chambered Mahogany Body
- Ghost Piezo and Stereo Jack System
- Gibson’s 490R and 498T Pickups
- Custom Star Fret Position Markers
