Gibson Memphis 1964 ES-345 VOS 2016 (Frost Blue) Overview

Gibson Memphis Product Overview

From the historically correct body shape, truss rod, and fret wire to the '64 neck profile and hot hide glue construction, the Gibson Memphis 1964 ES-345 VOS offers vintage perfection. You can dial in a wide range of classic guitar tones thanks to the alnico magnet pickups. This premium guitar delivers the feel, looks, vibe, and sound you'd expect from a true vintage instrument.

Gibson Memphis built the 1964 ES-345 VOS semi-hollow body electric guitar to vintage specs for an instrument that plays just like the original. The ES-345 VOS's neck and body are assembled using hot hide glue, which many argue sounds better than synthetic glue. Gibson Memphis also uses a vintage-accurate truss rod, truss rod washer, and anchor in the guitar's neck. Every piece of wood used in the ES-345 is hand selected by its looks and weight. Just like the original, these guitars are lightweight wonders to play.

Tonal excellence is yours when you plug the Gibson Memphis 1964 ES-345 VOS into your favourite tube amplifier. Loaded with a pair of MHS alnico pickups, each with its own volume and tone controls, you'll be able to dial in chiming country tones as easily as savagely distorted rock tones. The Alnico III neck pickup gives you classic hollowbody-style tones for everything from smooth jazz to dirty blues. Flip to the Alnico II bridge pickup, and you'll command sounds covering everything from bright and clean to raw and mean. Sweetwater guitarists have found that these alnico pickups deliver a wide sonic range and articulate response.
