It's a reflection of his own heritage, a highly personalized recreation of the classic model that was handed down from King's grandfather to his father and finally to him as he took his family's musical legacy to stages worldwide. It's equipped with a pair of Custombucker humbuckers, a 6-position mono Varitone switch, audio taper CTS potentiometers and Black Cat capacitors, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, a Sideways Vibrola, Stop Bar bushings with a \"Custom Made\" cover plate, gold Grover \"milk bottle\" Rotomatic tuners, an engraved \"Stereo\" truss rod cover, and is finished in Sixties Cherry VOS. A Custom Shop ES case, Certificate of Authenticity, and Marcus King belt buckle are also included. The buckle was hand-carved, hand-cast, and hand-finished in the USA by Maker and Smith. The custom design was inspired by the Blue Ridge Mountains in Marcus King’s native state of South Carolina. The Gibson Custom Shop limited-edition Marcus King ES-345 is a recreation of a specific vintage Gibson guitar; a 1962 ES-345 with a rare feature, a Sideways Vibrola tailpiece. Because this tailpiece was designed for flat-topped SG models and not for archtops, it does have the potential to graze the finish if used, just like the original guitar. Gibson Custom Shop is committed to reflecting the historical accuracy and playing experience of Marcus King’s original guitar including the tailpiece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Shape: \u003c\/b\u003eES-335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Material:\u003c\/b\u003e 3-Ply Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop: \u003c\/b\u003e3-Ply Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBack: \u003c\/b\u003e3-Ply Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSide: \u003c\/b\u003e3-Ply Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCenterblock: \u003c\/b\u003eSolid Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003eMulti-ply Top, Single-ply Back and Fingerboard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish: \u003c\/b\u003eNitrocellulose Lacquer (VOS)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eProfile:\u003c\/b\u003e Rounded Early 60s Marcus King Profile\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 24.75\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Material: \u003c\/b\u003eIndian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Radius:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNumber Of Frets:\u003c\/b\u003e 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrets:\u003c\/b\u003e Medium Jumbo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Bone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.665\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInlays:\u003c\/b\u003e Split Parallelogram\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoint:\u003c\/b\u003e Hide Glue Fit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e Gold VOS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuner Plating: \u003c\/b\u003eGold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge:\u003c\/b\u003e ABR-1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTailpiece: \u003c\/b\u003eSideways Vibrola\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuning Machines: \u003c\/b\u003eGrover Milk Bottle Rotomatic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/b\u003e Black 5-Ply\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod:\u003c\/b\u003e Authentic 1950s No-Tube\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod Cover: \u003c\/b\u003eEngraved \"Stereo\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eControl Knobs: \u003c\/b\u003eBlack Top Hats with Gold Inserts and Dial Pointers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSwitch Tip: \u003c\/b\u003eCream\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eStrap Buttons:\u003c\/b\u003e 2 - Brass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMounting Rings: \u003c\/b\u003eBlack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Pickup:\u003c\/b\u003e Custombucker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge Pickup:\u003c\/b\u003e Custombucker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eControls: \u003c\/b\u003e2 Volume, 2 Tone, 6 position Mono Varitone Switch, 500K CTS Audio-Taper Potentiometers, Black Cat Capacitors, Hand-Wired Harness \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup Selector:\u003c\/b\u003e 3-Way Switchcraft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Jack: \u003c\/b\u003e1\/4\" Switchcraft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase:\u003c\/b\u003e Custom Shop 60s ES Case 940-08034\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccessories:\u003c\/b\u003e Certificate of Authenticity, hand-carved, hand-cast and hand-finished in the USA by Maker and Smith Marcus King Belt Buckle","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39345242800263,"sku":"62ES345MKSCSP1-110011","price":10027.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/gibson-electric-guitars-semi-hollow-gibson-custom-shop-marcus-king-1962-es-345-sixities-cherry-vos-w-sideways-vibrola-62es345mkscsp1-110011-28110054588551.jpg?v=1646375704","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.mom\/en-ca\/products\/gibson-custom-shop-marcus-king-1962-es-345-sixities-1184846","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
