The Gibson RD Custom Ebony Electric Guitar is a reimagined classic, first introduced in 1977 and now crafted by the Gibson Custom Shop for the first time. This 25.5” scale length solid body electric guitar combines elements of the Explorer and Firebird with a sleek mahogany body and a rear tummy cut for added comfort. Designed for guitarists who love drop tunings or prefer a longer scale, the RD Custom delivers rich sustain, powerful tones, and striking aesthetics. Featuring 490R and 498T humbuckers, an ebony fingerboard, and gold hardware, this guitar is built for both playability and performance. Includes a Custom Shop hard-shell case.
