Gibson® first introduced adjustable truss rods in 1921, invented by Ted McHugh, their factory manager. Early truss rod covers were simple, narrow plates. By the mid 1930s , Gibson® standardized the bell shaped cover you recognize today. Through the 1940s and 1950s, nearly every Gibson® guitar carried this small but iconic detail. The design has remained essentially unchanged for decades and has become an industry standard.

Maple is a highly valued wood known for its strength, stability and natural beauty. It’s often used when durability is a requirement. Showcasing striking grain patterns, making it a favorite for high-end and custom instruments. Maple is a perfect blend of reliability and elegance.
