The Story

Limited Edition 1959 ES-345 Reissue with Bigsby Heavy Aged Ebony

A classy limited edition run from the Gibson Custom Shop, this is a recreation of a 1959 ES-345 in a Murphy Lab Heavy Aged Ebony finish complete with a Bigsby tailpiece, Varitone switch and of course, gold hardware. The guitar features an Authentic '59 "D" neck profile topped with a rosewood fretboard and split parallelogram inlays. The Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups give you that '50s bloom with a warm midrange and dynamic sensativity. Add in some vibrato with the Bigsby and you're in business!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags and Paperwork
