Gibson ES-345TD Model Semi-Hollow Body Electric Guitar (2015), made in Memphis, Tennessee, serial # A-07137, sunburst lacquer finish, laminated maple body; mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, original brown tolex hard shell case.

This is a very nice modern/vintage style ES-345 from Gibson's now sadly defunct Memphis factory. These lovingly re-engineered thinlines built there were specifically designed to combine the best features of the classic 1960s models with a few more modern details. The finish is a beautifully re-created tobacco sunburst, the neck is a very deep rounded "C" profile, larger and chunkier than most '60s originals. The Vari-Tone control is functional but despite the lettering on the truss rod cover the guitar is thankfully NOT wired in stereo. This is a lovely instrument and a nice reminder of the good work Gibson's Memphis facility was turning out before being sadly shuttered in May 2019.
 
Overall length is 42 in. (106.7 cm.), 16 in. (40.6 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 5/8 in. (4.1 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 24 3/4 in. (629 mm.). Width of nut is 1 11/16 in. (43 mm.).

This guitar appears not much used over the last 10 years, showing some light scuffing and some light handling wear; the back of the neck has a couple of tiny dinks. The gold plating on the pickup covers and bridge ends has some authentically vintage looking wear! One of the knobs has a small crack through the center but is not loose. The frets show virtually no wear and this is an excellent playing 345, in the original brown case with the "Gibson Memphis" COA and Gibson gold warranty booklet. Overall Excellent Condition.
