The year 1959 is etched into guitar history as the "Golden Era," and the ES-345 was its crown jewel. Sitting comfortably between the utilitarian ES-335 and the opulent ES-355, the 1959 ES-345 offered a refined aesthetic and tonal versatility that defined the sound of blues, jazz, and rock and roll.
