Description

A new design out of Gibson Memphis for the 2019 model release, the ES-235 is inspired both by vintage Electric-Spanish models and the brand’s famous solid bodies. The result is a semi-hollow masterpiece with a single Florentine cut for better fret access, built with spruce bracing around a solid maple centerblock for solid body sustain with hollow body resonance and a minimum of feedback. It’s loaded with a gloss nitrocellulose finish, dual Burstbucker Pro humbucking pickups and wired up with a Memphis Tone Circuit Plus (MTC Plus), bringing you incredible looks and hybrid tone to match.

About Gibson Memphis:
Luthier Orville Gibson founded the Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co. Ltd. in Kalamazoo, MI in 1902. Its original aim was to make mandolins and mandolin-family instruments. Over the last 100-plus years, Gibson Brands, Inc., as it is now known, has since evolved into the world’s premier manufacturer of semi-hollow and hollow body electric guitars, as well as a celebrated portfolio of innovative solid-body and acoustic models.

If Beale Street could talk, it might tell you about Gibson Memphis. Producing all of Gibson’s semi-hollow and hollow body guitars, the Gibson Memphis facility is the heart of the blues.
