Gibson ES-335 Government Series

Now, here is a very special, rare, and unique guitar - a Gibson Memphis ES-335 Government Series Limited Edition in Gun Metal Grey Finish!!!

Only 300 of these guitars were made for worldwide distribution.  They had a suggested retail price of $4,115 and a street price of $2,899.  This Limited Edition has been quickly bought-up by collectors and players, making them rare and hard to find.

This ES-335 Government Series is brand-new.  We bought it from an authorized Gibson dealer and, due to it's collector value, have kept it safe and unplayed in it's factory hardshell case.

The ES-335 Government Series Limited Edition was made at Gibson's prestigious Memphis factory.  This Special Run of 300 guitars commemorates one of the most significant events in Gibson's history.  That and the understated, elegant beauty of the Gun Metal Grey finish, as well as the guitar's feature set, have made this a serious, must-have guitar for collectors and players, alike.

So, what historic event does this Limited Edition commemorate?
To quote Gibson's website:

ES-335 Government Series
An American Original Now An American Icon Of Freedom

"In August 2011, Federal Agents raided Gibson Guitar and confiscated fingerboards, necks, and even entire guitars.  After months of negotiations we received our necks and bodies back."

"We have used these blanks to create a new series of guitars to remind us that we are 'Endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.'  These rights are exactly what Gibson Guitar has been founded on and we will continue to provide happiness to all of our fans regardless of what it takes to defend these rights."

"This remarkable instrument is Gunmetal Grey, with Dirty Fingers pickups and Nickel Hardware.  Emblazoned on the pickguard is a gold 'American Made' emblem, and every one of these 300 Special Run guitars comes with a unique Certificate of Authenticity."
