Gibson 2016 ES-275 Hollowbody Electric Guitar - Faded Cherry

OVERVIEW


The ES-275 revels in Gibson's long tradition of hollowbody archtop electrics to bring a fresh new model to the lineup. In addition to its rounded L-5-inspired cutaway and medium-depth body, this guitar includes a tubeless Historic truss rod, rolled fingerboard binding, ABR-1 bridge with titanium saddles, a genuine bone nut, trapeze tailpiece, PAF-inspired MHS humbuckers, and classy ES-345-style appointments. Compared to the L-5 CES, the width and length of the ES-275 have been reduced about 10% and the depth by about 40%. The result still has the full, shapely appeal of the classic Gibson jazz guitars, but in a size that’s more comfortable to put your arms around. The smaller body also gives easier access to the additional 2 frets.The pots are high quality 500K CTS pots with a .015 mfd for the neck pickup, which doesn’t cut as much of the treble response and makes the sound warm and vocal instead of muddy. Includes hardshell case.Fully hollow archtop: The ES-275 is inspired by the L-5 shape, yet is more compact, with a 2-inch depth to its fully acoustic bodyElegant inlays: Pearl split-parallelogram inlays are another hallmark of this great archtopBone nut: A genuine bone nut is hard wearing, while enhancing acoustic resonance and sustainRolled fingerboard binding: By "rolling" or "breaking" the binding at the fingerboard edge you experience a softer playing feelHistoric truss rod: The historic truss rod has no tube, a proven known to enhance the guitar's resonance and sustainMHS pickups: The best PAF reproductions yet, the MHS humbuckers present superb sonic depth with outstanding character and clarityTitanium bridge saddles: Adding titanium saddles to a traditional "floating" ABR-1 Tune-o-matic bridge gives extra ring and clarity to the toneHigh-gloss nitro finish: A hand-sprayed high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish brings out the true beauty of the ES-275
A new design packed with Gibson archtop tradition.
