Gibson

collapse expand iconDescription

Totally authentic early '60s construction and playing feel, with great PAF-style MHS pickups, rolled fingerboard binding, accurate finish colors, and great block-neck looks.

New for 2015
Historic truss rod: Superior adjustability due to the Teflon coating, larger diameter rod, original brass anchor and larger washer.
Rolled neck binding: Binding is rounded off to comfortably fit the contours of the player's hand.
Vintage style "No Logo" potentiometers:
45 degree bevel on all plastics: Historically accurate
Quartered Adirondack spruce braces: One step closer to vintage ES tonality
Lightweight centerblocks: 2.5 lb. - 3.2 lb.
