1946 Gibson ES-300N | CME Vintage Demo | Nathaniel Murphy

Nathaniel leaves his big honker in the rearview mirror and tries out this more modest 1946 Gibson ES-300N. Big, beautiful, and brilliant, this top-of-the-line archtop is the perfect vehicle for a comfortable cruise to the Savoy and back.

During its reign from 1940 to 1952, this ES-300 was considered to be one of the top-of-the-line electric Gibson archtops. As with many Gibson models, it was actually the same price as the model number itself. So you could have got this for three hundred dollars back in the day. The first incarnation of this ES-300 featured an incredibly long pick up that stretched from the fretboard top all the way to the bridge. And it is so big, in fact, it earned the nickname the big honker.
