The Epiphone Nighthawk Custom Reissue carries a Grade-AAA flamed maple veneer top finished in a choice of Fireburst, Honeyburst, Trans Amber or Trans Black, complemented by mother-of-pearl "crown" inlays in the ebony fingerboard that echo the classic crown inlay in the traditional Epiphone headstock.
The Nighthawk pickup package includes a bridge humbucker, a single-coil in the middle, and a mini-humbucker in the neck. The through-body Nighthawk bridge provides sustain and resonance, while the guitar’s 25–1/2" scale length adds extra shimmer.
You can check out the Nighthawk Custom Reissue now at your authorized Gibson dealer.

Seymour Duncan had a Piece on Epiphone.com's newsletter
that he has after market pick ups for the Epiphone NightHawk Custom (with the mini HB neck, single coil middle and HB bridge and the coil taps as well, (if You decided to change out the pickups (This axe should be great and save a considerable anount over Gibson;s but both Company's will have the same pick up configuration
(where Gibson's 2010 versus 2011 is different
P.S.Bring Back the Gibson Blueshawk too! Why Gibson discontinued both is beyond me and Epiphone made the Nighthawk for ? 1or 2 years only I believe (bolt on neck)
Peace
