Another great Gibson Memphis USA guitar model, the ES-137 was a updated take on the ES-335, with a single cutaway and maple neck. This '09 model sports an elegant Blueburst finish and is all set to go. It has normal surface wear for a guitar of its age but no major cracks or repairs. It appears to be all original. Serial #01968729, comes with the original case and paperwork.
