Gibson Memphis 1952 ES-295 Hollowbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:

Your chance to own a 6-string legend
Nitrocellulose lacquer finish
Gibson Custom's commitment to quality
Your chance to own a 6-string legend
Gibson launched the ES-295 in 1952 as an upgrade to the company's ES-175. Sporting a Les-Paul-like Bullion Gold finish, a floral pickguard, and two P-90 single-coil pickups that provided a wide range of tone, the guitar was immediately embraced by jazz guitarists, no surprise there, but also quite a few pickers in the nascent genre of rock 'n' roll, including Scotty Moore, Elvis Presley's axeman. Toward the end of 1957, Gibson replaced the P-90s with their new humbucking pickups and ultimately discontinued the ES-295 in 1958, around the same time they retired their Gold Top Les Paul. The Gibson Memphis 1952 ES-295 brings back the legendary '295 in meticulous, historically correct detail, for your playing (and viewing) pleasure.

Nitrocellulose lacquer finish
The Gibson Memphis ES-295 wears a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Nitro finishes (standard back in the day) are significantly thinner than today's polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to breathe. Nitro finishes not only look authentically vintage; they also enhance the instrument's tonal qualities.

Gibson Custom's commitment to quality
Gibson's Custom Shop took extra care with every detail of the ES-295. Every Gibson Custom guitar receives an ultra-precise Plek Pro setup, which optimizes the fretboard and nut for incredibly accurate intonation and a just-right feel. And fine touches such as the Memphis P-90 pickups and Bail tailpiece not only add to the amazing tone and feel, they remain true to Gibson's legacy of superb quality.
