From here, the Custom Shop built in a solid mahogany neck shaped in a Chunky C-Shape profile. This neck's full, vintage-inspired feel connects with a solid and fittingly "chunky" fit in the palm. Fans of vintage-style necks are sure to feel right at home with this profile along with its solid ebony fingerboard. Twenty-two frets and 1950s Pattern Mother of Pearl inlays line the board for a fluid and flashy fretting experience. Playability is a paramount priority with this Gibson Custom Shop model in an effort to capture the majesty of the original "Black Beauty" model on which it is based.

The Gibson Custom Shop's dedication to prestigious sonic experiences comes to the forefront with the inclusion of three Custombucker Alnico 3 unpotted humbucking pickups.

Wired with CTS 500K audio taper potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors, these pickups are versatile and colorful for creating vast spectrums of sound.
