The Gibson Deluxe Tuners feature a Sleek design and precise tuning stability. Renowned Gibson quality ensures accurate pitch and provides a smooth, durable mechanism that makes finding your perfect pitch simple and easy.
ThIS Gibson CS Es-356 features an extremely beautifully figured Carved Maple top.
Maple is a very hard type of wood with good tonal qualities and great sustain. It also helps to brighten the sound of the instrument so is a great pairing with Chambered mahogany body as mahogany has a slightly darker sound.
The Gibson CS Es-356 features a stunning Gloss Nitro finish.
Nitro finishes age in a very different way to the modern Poly Finishes. They also resonate differently.
As nitro ages it cracks which is often from expanding and shrinking during change of temperature.
This guitar will continue to age as you play it and make it your own!
The rich, dark colour of the Ebony fretboard beautifully compliments the flamed maple top on the ES-356. Ebony produces a slightly brighter tone compared to Rosewood which pairs nicely with the '57 Classic's to create a great bluesy tone that cuts through the mix.
Introduced in 1990, the '57 Classic provides warm, full tone with a balanced response, packing that classic Gibson PAF humbucker crunch. They are made to the exact same specs as the original PAFs, including Alnico II magnets, nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and vintage-style, two-conductor braided wiring.
All of the internal components in the ES-356 are top of the range to make sure that your guitar plays and sounds as good as it looks!
INCLUDING:
The Gibson Deluxe Hard Case provides excellent protection. With a black tolex exterior and plush red velvet padding, this is the ultimate case for a CS guitar!
