USED GIBSON MEMPHIS / ES-137 Classic [03]

Gibson Memphis manufactured many ES-335s, ES-175s, and other semi-acos and full-acos until its closure in 2018.
The ES-330 is a full-acoustic construction without a center block, although it has a thin body with a double cutaway like the 335, which was released in 1959 following the introduction of the ES-335, which is also a classic.
We are pleased to announce the arrival of a 2009 Gibson Memphis /ES-137 Classic!

The ES-137 was a limited production model at Gibson's Memphis factory from 2002 to 2013. The ES-137 was manufactured in three variations: Custom, Classic, and Standard.
The body shape is a single cutaway 16-inch specification, similar to the ES-175. It has a semi-acoustic construction with a center block.

Maple body with mahogany neck. The center block is made of mahogany.
Fingerboard is made of 12" rosewood with "C inlay" on the 12th fret inlay.
The neck shape is a little thicker than the 50's. The body color is a chic "T" color.
The body color is a chic "Triburst", and combined with the gold parts, it has a high-class look.

The pickups are the original "490R/498T".
The clear and powerful sound of these pickups is very attractive, and they go well with the moderate airiness of the semi-acoustic.
The controls are the easy-to-use 2Vol2Tone, which is a royal specification.

The condition of the guitar is in good condition with minor scratches, scuff marks, dull parts, and cracks in the paint on the binding of the fretboard side.
The remaining frets and neck condition are in good condition, and playability is excellent.

This is a precious ES-137 model of Gibson Memphis, which boasts outstanding popularity even after its closure!
This is a limited production model, so it is one of the most rare ones on the market!
