My Guitar Notes

Gibson ES-325

The Gibson ES-325 is a thinline hollow-body electric guitar from the 1970s, part of the company's range of slim double-cutaway instruments. It is a fully hollow guitar without a centre block, carrying two mini humbucking pickups, and it is distinguished from its stablemates by a simpler specification and a control layout with only a single volume and tone arrangement. Its hollow body gives a resonant, slightly thin tone with a tendency to feed back at volume, and it is collected as an example of Gibson's thinline designs of that decade.
