The Gibson ES-175 Steve Howe Signature electric guitar is a design based on achievement. The Gibson ES-175 Steve Howe Signature electric guitar is based on the '64 ES-175 that was Steve's first good guitar and the one to which he has returned throughout his long career. It celebrates the achievements of the man who elevated rock guitar into an art form. As a member of the English band 'Yes', Steve's tasteful, eclectic guitar parts helped define a new style of music. On later solo albums he emerged as an accomplished jazz player. His guitar collection has been the subject of a book, and his instruments have been exhibited in museums. Through it all, his favourite instrument has always been his 1964 Gibson ES-175, and his signature guitar is modeled after his personal guitar. The Gibson ES-175 Steve Howe Signature electric guitar has a plain laminated maple top, back and rims, a one-piece mahogany neck with bound rosewood fingerboard and two '57 Classic humbuckers that translate the body's natural resonance into haunting jazz tones or searing distorted leads. The 175 neck profile is very comfortable while the bound top and back, plus Grover tuners, nickel hardware and pearloid split parallelogram inlays make this guitar a comfort to play and watch. The Gibson ES-175 Steve Howe Signature provides the tone and the look that inspires musicians in blues, rock and jazz. Includes Gibson black levant hardshell case.
