Gibson ES-345 – 2020 – Vintage Burst

Gibson ES-345 – 2020 – Vintage Burst

The Gibson ES-345 boasts a number of aesthetic enhancements over the flagship ES-335. Crafted with a maple centerblock and quarter-sawn Adirondack spruce bracing, players will be impressed by the lightweight feel and expanded range of tonal capabilities. The body is wrapped in multi-ply binding, and the bound fingerboard has Split Parallelogram inlays that are exclusive to this model in the ES™ series. The ES-345 is equipped with a variety of high-end appointments like our hand-wired control assembly with Orange Drop® capacitors, Gibson’s new Calibrated T-Type humbucking pickups, Vintage Deluxe style tuners, and a lightweight aluminum ABR-1 bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece anchored with steel thumb wheels and studs. Fresh setup on 10s, weighs 8lb 8oz. Tuning stability is obviously excellent, pickups sound amazing, handwired with bumblebee capacitors. Comes in a stock Gibson case with everything from the factory.

Condition

Other than a couple of light impressions and light hazing, a few small flaws visible under harsh lighting, light patina on the metal parts, the guitar presents as new, close to mint. The guitar still has film on the pickguard which photographs badly. Great neck, great frets, bought new and stored, excellent condition in every respect, comes with everything from the factory. See the pictures, ask for more. As always, lots more pictures of this one at my site which Reverb doesn’t want me to link to, but if you put a dotcom behind my shop name, you’d already be there.
