An absolutely stunning example of an ES-345 from the Golden Age of Gibson electric guitar manufacturing. A collector's dream, this one is 100% all original, including the hardshell case. The original patent number pickups sound like quintessential '60s Gibsons—rich, chimey, great note separation, incredible sustain. When you factor in the factory-original Varitone switch, you can dial in a nearly impossible number of tones, including that signature bite and snarl so many classic blues guitarists have used the ES-345 to achieve. If you're looking for a collector grade ES-345 to add to your Gibson collection, they really don't get better.
