Other distinctive / innovative features include:
- 25.5 inch scale length (the same as many Fenders, Gibsons more typically have a 24.75 inch scale length).
- Through-body stringing and bridge construction - similar to the Fender Telecaster
- Blues 90 pickups (superficially resembling a P-90 pickup)
- Noise reduction circuitry which employs a dummy coil
- A Varitone circuit (similar to that used on the Gibson ES345) - the Varitone circuit is a mid-cut/band-stop filter with a choice of five center frequencies
- The Blueshawk is a light guitar (less than 7lbs) - the body is made from poplar, capped with maple - the body is small and relatively thin and has two cavities - the hardware is minimal.
- The Blueshawk has a contour carved into the back - similar to the Fender Stratocaster.
- Simple control set - master volume, master tone, 3-way pickup selector, 6 way rotary Varitone control switch.
- Just above the fingerboard and parallel to it, between the front (neck) pickup and the front strap pin, there is a cursive-writing emblem using paint, saying “Blues Hawk.”
