When the Epiphone Nighthawk was first introduced in 1993, it represented a departure from “tradition" with its 25.5"" scale length and its versatile combination of coil-tappable humbucker and single coil pickups. The design of the Nighthawk is essentially a combination of an SG and a Les Paul.
The Nighthawk features a solid Mahogany body (with added "belly" scarf for comfort) and a glued-in Slim Taper TM 25 1/2” scale Mahogany neck for a well rounded, warm tone with excellent sustain. The headstock is back-angled at 14 degrees, which increases pressure on the strings and helps them stay firmly in nut slots.
