There are a lot of things I like about my Blues Hawk. First.. the weight. If you have ever played back to back to back gigs, you long for something that will not break your back... Even my old American Strat can wear you out. So the Hawk is really comfortable. Second are the p90's. I love the brighter tone... I know I am in the minority, but sometimes I feel as though my humbucker guitars are tone limited. The Hawk gives me so many options! Different gigs in different rooms just make your rig sound different... So, I can really find nice options with the Hawk, without turning to the pedal board. Lastly, I love the neck... it's fast, comfortable and my Hawk stays in tune nicely. Those are the things that really appeal to me. It did take me a while to find a Blues Hawk that I liked... but once I did...I just love the guitar. I wonder why Gibson does not re-introduce this model again. Perhaps it won't break the bank. OH..and if your looking for a good Hard case, Sweetwater has an Epiphone Case made for the Epiphone Blues Hawk...it's really nice and costs around $100. A good deal. Plus, if your at a gig... some low life who is looking to pick up a guitar for free, might pass up on an Epiphone guitar case rather than snatching a Gibson Custom case... HA ...[/font][/size][/size]
