The Gibson ES-137 CLASSIC 6-String Electric Guitar, Blues Burst Finish, Chrome Hardware inc case. Highly versatile guitar design combines two classics - the look of Gibson's single-cutaway semi-hollowbody guitars and the hot sound of a Gibson Les Paul Classic.
The Gibson ES-137 CLASSIC combines two classics - the look of Gibson's single-cutaway semi-hollowbody guitars and the hot sound of a Gibson Les Paul Classic. The 490R and 498T humbucking pickups, plus trapezoid fingerboard inlays with an engraved 'C' in the 12th-fret inlay, identify this new ES137 classic model. Other features are all Gibson deluxe: laminated curly maple body, binding on top and bottom, bound rosewood fingerboard and tune-o-matic bridge with stop tailpiece. The Gibson ES137 Classic has outstanding tonal range, everything you need from that clean blues sound to a crisp distortion. The Gibson ES-137 Classic is the first Gibson archtop to employ a mahogany center block for reduced feedback and greater sustain. Includes Gibson Black smooth levant hardshell case.
