Wow - this one is special! Available now is this 2018 Gibson Memphis Custom Shop ES-355 Limited edition, finished in VOS Antique Walnut. This guitar is part of the limited run that Gibson made in 2018, only 100 pieces were ever produced. They don’t come up for sale often and I can see why, it’s an absolute stunner!
This guitar was made bespoke and bought new from Peach guitars in early 2018, and has only been lightly used at home since, never going out of the house. One owner from new, and from a pet+smoke free home.
Spec wise, the 3ply Maple/Poplar/Maple body combination provides an authentic and rich tone, with a modern weight relieved Maple centre block; it's super comfortable and well balanced. Thanks to the VOS nitrocellulose finish you get a sweet, organic sound and this thin lacquer will wear beautifully over time, just like the original models. The neck is something special, crafted from quarter-sawn Mahogany; it features a gorgeous bound Dark Rosewood fingerboard, embellished with Mother of Pearl Full Block inlays. With a rounded C profile, 22 medium jumbo frets, a 12" radius and 24.75" scale length, this is a serious player's guitar.
A pair of Memphis Historic Spec humbuckers deliver those classic tones, deep, rich and resonant they offer great clarity. These PAF style pickups are slightly underwound and feature unbalanced coils for a truly historic sound. Hand wired with matched 550k pots, Orange Drop capacitors and a new mono varitone switch, this guitar is an unfiltered tone machine, and with a Maestro Tremolo system, you can add some lush textures to your playing without compromising on tuning stability or intonation.
Has been recently professionally setup and plays like a dream, action on low E 1.9mm and high e 1.3mm at the 12th fret. Comes complete with original hard case as shown in photos. Please do view the photos carefully as they form an integral part of the condition report.
