Description
The expert craftspeople at Gibson Custom Shop have rendered every contour, profile, inlay & color of the vintage ES models in magnificent detail. This 1964 Reissue model utilizes sharp horn cutaways, a medium C-shape neck profile scanned from originals, small block inlays & vintage-replica parts. It also features Ultra Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Ultra Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe & feel of an original example from Gibson's Golden Era. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action so it's ready to play straight out of the case.
