For sale is a 2017 Gibson Memphis Freddie King ES-345 TDC VOS in stunning Vintage Cherry, serial number #156/200. This limited-edition re-creation faithfully replicates the ES-345 used by blues legend Freddie King in the mid-1960s, complete with unique features modeled after King’s personal guitar. From its split parallelogram fingerboard inlays and period-correct plastics to its hot hide glue neck and body construction, matched potentiometer sets, and rolled fingerboard binding, this instrument exudes vintage authenticity. Equipped with MHS humbuckers, it delivers a true PAF tone and requires a stereo cable for proper operation.
This guitar is in excellent condition and operates flawlessly. It shows some light scratches and a few small dings, adding character while maintaining its overall allure. I confidently rate its condition at a solid 9 out of 10. The guitar is entirely original, with no cracks, repairs, or structural issues. The neck is straight, the original frets are in pristine condition with no wear, and it has been set up for a smooth and dynamic playing experience without fret buzz or dead spots.
The original hard-shell case is included and functions perfectly, along with the certificate of authenticity. For full transparency, detailed photos of the guitar’s condition are available. The guitar pictured is the exact one you’ll receive—no stock photos.
