Gibson introduced the Howard Roberts Custom in 1973, based on the Epiphone models, and this was built until 1981. The Howard Roberts Artist, built from 1976 to 1981, visuhttps://youtu.be/HBuK65ByIUo?si=UR3waiOHw2n8Ko0fally upgraded the woods and binding used, and gold plated the metal hardware. The Howard Roberts Fusion model is quite different from its predecessors, with thinline semi-hollow construction; the body has F-holes instead of an oval hole, is thinner and has a center block of ‘Chromyte’, a Gibson marketing term for what’s basically lightweight balsa wood. This adds significant feedback resistance without also adding a lot of weight. With these changes, a pair of humbucking pickups were added, the 490R and 490T models. The body is laminate Maple, with a Mahogany neck and an Ebony fingerboard; neck binding was added in 1978.

Early models, the Fusion and Fusion II, used a combination tune-o-matic bridge and TP-6 fine tuning stop tailpiece, though some models use a basic stop tailpiece. The Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion III added a gold-plated Oettinger-style ‘finger’ tailpiece with an adjustment screw for each finger. This tailpiece also appears on Le Grande models. However, the adjustment screws on this tailpieceare for string tension, not pitch; they allow balancing of the ‘feel’ of each string. The Oettinger style tailpiece dates back to the 1920’s when it was a relatively common but higher end banjo tailpiece.
