Discover the Epiphone Waxx Nighthawk Studio in detail
Who is Waxx?
French musician Waxx is an artist, music producer and social media influencer with over a million followers, but he is first and foremost a guitarist, and the guitar is at the heart of almost everything he does. Waxx embodies the connection between the eternal rock'n'roll culture and modern digital society. His fan base has grown steadily thanks to numerous collaborations and innovative cover music . Today he hosts the online show FanZine and demonstrates his talent on stage. With his energy, his creativity and his timeless rock'n'roll spirit, Waxx embodies the spirit of modern French music. When it comes to his equipment, Waxx is a big fan of Gibson guitars and Marshall amps .
Rare Gibson model as a model
One of his favorite guitars is his old Gibson Nighthawk in Pelham Blue . The Nighthawk is a relatively unknown model compared to the classic Les Paul, SG and ES-335, but it was particularly popular in the 90s. Now Epiphone and Waxx have teamed up to develop the new Epiphone Waxx Nighthawk Studio , which is significantly cheaper than the original Gibson Nighthawks.
Versatility and modern look
The Epiphone Waxx Nighthawk features a mahogany body and neck , an Indian laurel fretboard , a GraphTech nut, an unusual 25.5" scale length for Gibson and a hardtail Nighthawk bridge that runs through the body. A Waxx logo adorns the back of the headstock, another is engraved on the truss rod cover. A blank truss rod cover and Waxx-selected vinyl decals are also included. The Waxx Nighthawk Studio is powered by two Epiphone ProBucker humbuckers, and a push/pull master tone - controls allows coil splitting of both pickup if desired for even more tonal flexibility . The model , like the original from Waxx, is painted in Pelham Blue. A hard-shell case for safe transport is also including .
