Gibson ES-359  This Gibson has a few tasty up-grades that were professionally installed that make this a one off beauty that will rock your socks off!!  The gold Grover tuners standard on this model has been replaced with identical Grover Locking Tuners, A gold STETS Bar floating/locking tremolo and a GRAPH-TECH self lubricating nut. Also a very nifty gold HIPSHOT EXTENDER was added to drop the E to D. If you are a diehard purist I have included all the original hardware so you can return to factory specs. No holes were drilled and no changes to the finish or structure we re harmed during the production of this master-piece. No blems or mars or scratches. The frets show no wear, and the pick-guard is free from rash.I own build and customize guitars and take pleasure in tasteful up-grades that separate one from the herd.

As with the ES-339, it delivers bold, semi-hollow tone that is rich with expressive, even stinging, overtones in a smaller, solidbody-sized guitar. The ES-359 has some exciting enhancements including Memphis Tone electronics, the 30/60 slender neck profile, ebony fingerboard, as well as reduced dimensions and weight.Memphis Tone electronicsMemphis Tone circuitry uses 500K audio taper pots that operate with an interactive load that preserves high end as you turn down the volume. The loading effect preserves the full-bodied tone with rich midrange and singing sustain from the '57 Classic humbuckers while adding a very sweet bite. Another difference: the volume is very smooth, rolling off in even increments along with the numbers on the knobs.
