By the end of the 1940s, changing musical styles found premium archtops like the L-5 and Super 400 to be lacking in volume. By simply adding the pickups and controls developed for its early electric guitars, Gibson created the electric version of the Super 400 in 1951. Our model is based on the early version with P-90's. Check out Scotty Moore (and Elvis) playing a Super 400 in the 68 Comeback Special.
