Gibson ES-345 Electric Guitar - Vintage Burst

Our Take:

Love the ES-335s, but looking for a little more style? The ES-345 provides exactly that, with accouterments such as a sleek multi-ply body binding, a bound fingerboard with Split Parallelogram inlays only found on the 345s, Vintage Deluxe-style tuners, and an immaculate Vintage Burst finish that brings out the wood grain just right. And of course, you get all of the rich, multi-faceted tone and classic playing feel that made the ES-335s such a legendary instrument to begin with! 

Gibson's Take:

The Gibson ES-345 boasts a number of aesthetic enhancements over the flagship ES-335. Crafted with a thermally engineered maple centerblock and thermally engineered 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 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 lightweight aluminum ABR-1 bridge and stop bar tailpiece anchored with steel thumb-wheels and studs.
