The Gibson Custom Kirk Hammett Raven Acoustic-electric Guitar is a testament to both craftsmanship and rock legendry, merging the iconic Hummingbird model with Metallica’s signature style. Co-designed with Kirk Hammett, this limited-edition guitar redefines acoustic elegance with a dark, gothic flair. Its Sitka spruce top and mahogany body deliver a rich, balanced tone, while the unique double pickguards feature intricate raven artwork, a nod to Hammett's thematic inspirations.

The mahogany neck with its rounded profile is complemented by a bound ebony fingerboard, boasting a 16" radius for effortless playability and fast solos. Mother-of-pearl star inlays add a stellar touch, while Grover Rotomatic tuners and TUSQ components ensure tuning stability and tonal consistency. The headstock is adorned with a striking mother-of-pearl raven skull inlay, embodying the guitar's bold identity.

For those ready to take the stage, the Raven is equipped with the LR Baggs Element VTC +4 system, delivering studio-grade clarity with discreet soundhole-mounted controls. This system provides an additional 4dB of output, offering extra headroom for live performances without sacrificing the guitar's natural acoustic character.

Handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana, and limited to just 100 pieces worldwide, each Raven comes with a signed certificate of authenticity, a raven-themed strap, and a custom black hardshell case adorned with a raven skull graphic. This guitar is more than an instrument; it's a collector’s dream and a musician's muse.
