Named in honor and developed with the input of guitarists Billy Byrd and Hank Garland, Gibson launched the slim hollow body electric Byrdland in the mid-50s. In addition to being the first Thinline model, Billy and Hank requested a narrower 1-5/8" nut and extra short 23-1/2" scale, giving this guitar a unique feel and playing experience! Whether you're small-handed or just want to be able to pull off some unusual chord voicings, this guitar opens up some interesting possibilities. It's currently set-up with buttery flatwound strings.This guitar is in excellent, all original condition (save for a new nut) with just a few finish dings on the top and light play wear. The pickup covers have been off, but the originals are intact. Comes with its original hardshell case.

The Gibson Byrdland is a high-end electric guitar model introduced by Gibson in 1955. It is known for its shorter scale length and its combination of a hollow body with humbucker pickups.
