Description

The Gibson Memphis ES-355 is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and sound, bridging the gap between vintage charm and modern playability. This semi-hollowbody electric guitar is a testament to Gibson's legendary design, offering an unparalleled tonal palette that caters to blues, jazz, and rock enthusiasts alike. The MHS II humbucking pickups ensure a dynamic range of sounds, from smooth jazz textures to gritty rock riffs, while the MTC Premiere Memphis Tone Circuit provides exceptional clarity and warmth.

Handcrafted with precision, the ES-355 features a classic 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body, complemented by a thermally engineered chambered maple center block. This combination not only enhances sustain but also reduces feedback, making it a reliable partner on stage and in the studio. The quartersawn mahogany neck, with its rounded-C profile, fits comfortably in your hand, allowing for effortless playability. The Plek'd A-grade rosewood fretboard, with its rolled binding and mother-of-pearl Full Block inlays, offers a smooth, professional-grade playing surface that any guitarist would appreciate.

This guitar is not just about looks and sound; it's about performance. The Grover "Milk Bottle" Rotomatic tuning machines and ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge with titanium saddles ensure tuning stability and precision. With its nitrocellulose gloss finish and nickel hardware, the ES-355 is as stunning visually as it is sonically. Whether you're crafting delicate melodies or powerful solos, the Gibson Memphis ES-355 is your gateway to a world of musical exploration.
