You—and your kids—are gonna love it! - The Epiphone Back to the Future ES-345 Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar in Cherry Red\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Gibson ES-345™ electric guitar holds a special place in pop culture history, largely thanks to its memorable appearance in the 1985 film Back to the Future. In one of the movie’s most iconic scenes, Michael J. Fox’s character, Marty McFly, performs an electrifying rendition of Johnny B. Goode at the Enchantment Under the Sea dance. Although the ES-345 was introduced in 1959, the guitar fits seamlessly into the film’s 1955 setting, providing a touch of anachronistic magic. This moment not only cemented the Gibson ES-345’s legacy in cinema but also solidified its status as a beloved icon in the world of rock ’n’ roll. Now, fans can own a replica of this legendary guitar at an accessible price with the Epiphone Back to the Future ES-345.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBased on the model that Michael J. Fox\/Marty McFly plays in the movie, the Back to the Future ES-345 is a loving tribute to this cultural icon and features a five-ply layered maple semi-hollowbody with a solid maple centerblock for enhanced sustain and improved feedback resistance. The top has four-ply binding with single-ply binding on the back. The mahogany neck has a comfortable Rounded C profile and is topped with a single-ply bound rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and is adorned with pearloid split parallelogram inlays that are a hallmark of the ES-345. The 60s Kalamazoo headstock is equipped with a Graph Tech® nut and Epiphone Deluxe tuning machines with cream Keystone buttons. The Epiphone logo and Gibson Crown are inlaid in mother of pearl. On the back of the headstock, in a nod to the movie, you’ll find a Hill Valley Music store decal. The Back to the Future ES-345 has gold hardware, including an Epiphone LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and a Bigsby® B70 vibrato tailpiece, and just like the guitar in the movie, the original Stop Bar studs are left in place.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe Back to the Future ES-345 is powered by two of Epiphone’s acclaimed Alnico Classic PRO™ pickups, each with individual volume and tone controls. A mono Varitone provides even more tonal versatility. It even comes packed in a vintage-style hardshell case with Marvin Berry and the Starlighters graphics. The Epiphone Back to the Future ES-345 is limited to only 1985 units worldwide, and they’re sure to go fast, so unless you have a flux capacitor-equipped DeLorean so that you can go back in time to get one later, you’d better grab yours now while you still can.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBinding: 4-ply Top, Single-ply Back and Fretboard\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Material: 5-ply Layered Maple\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Shape: ES-335\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Style: ES\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBracing: Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCenterblock: Maple\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 304.8mm \/ 12.0in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFret Count: 22\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrets: Medium Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInlays: Pearloid Split Parallelogram\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJoint: Glued In, Set Neck\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Material: Graph Tech\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Width: 43.0mm \/ 1.69in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProfile: Rounded \"C\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScale Length: 628.65mm \/ 24.75in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge: LockTone Tune-O-Matic\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControl Knobs: Black Top Hat with Gold Insert\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFinish: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMounting Rings: Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickguard: Black 5-ply, ES-335-shaped\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickup Covers: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrap Buttons: 2 - Bottom and Back of Heel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitch Tip: Ivory\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitchwasher: Gold (Varitone)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTailpiece: Bigsby B70\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTruss Rod: Dual Action\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTruss Rod Cover: Black 2-ply Bell; Wide White\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTuner Plating: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Epiphone Deluxe\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: Alnico Classic PRO\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone; Mono Varitone Switch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Alnico Classic PRO\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutput Jack: Standard Epiphone 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickup Selector: 3-way Toggle\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCase: Hardshell with Marvin Berry and the Starlighters Graphics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHeadstock: 60s Kalamazoo; Hill Valley Music Decal on Back\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHeadstock Inlay: Epiphone Logo and Gibson Crown in Mother of Pearl\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrings Gauge: .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e    Manufacturer: Epiphone\u003cbr\u003eModel: EIBTTFGH1\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I840587-N-0-WHXB\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 711106174242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Musictoner Musictoner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Musictoner has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
