Up for sale, a 2016 Gibson ES-345 “Frost Blue” Custom Shop VOS 1964 Reissue in perfect working order and very good condition. A discontinued Limited Run model (produced in very limited numbers) from Gibson's celebrated Custom Shop, this beautiful guitar features a vintage style, thin-feeling nitrocellulose lacquer allowing you to bond with the wood more intimately than on the mass produced, off-the-rack, standard models.

The guitar boasts a pair of Lambertones Crema humbuckers and stock wiring. These handwound humbuckers give this ES-345 a concise and urgent low end, developed midrange, and lovely highs—sonically reminiscent of Gibson's golden era PAF pickups. The pickups have ample power while retaining a brilliant clarity, the bridge pickup is slightly hotter with a sweet and smooth neck position humbucker that has a stunning bloom and complex harmonious content. The Vartione switching allows for a wealth of tone selection and variety allowing the discerning player to use an abundance of drive while retaining chiming and honest clarity.

The ES-345 is in excellent condition and a real eye catcher: She looks nearly like new, mostly without scratches and with only very little wear. On the back, there are some slight marks from a guitar stand.

On the well cared for body all of the electronics work as they should, with individual Volume and Tone controls for each pickup as well as the incomparable Varitone Switching. No breaks, damages or repairs. This guitar is a real beauty and has a killer sound!

An especially cool addition to the guitar is this beautiful Gibson Custom Shop case, genuine leather, crushed blue velvet.

The guitar can also be purchased with the original case.
