Gibson ES-325

The Gibson ES-325 is a thinline hollowbody electric guitar model produced by the Gibson Guitar Corporation.

Though similar in appearance to the popular Gibson ES-335 semi-hollow guitar, the ES-325 was a fairly different guitar in construction and sound. While the ES-335 was a semi-hollow guitar (that is, the central part of the guitar body was a solid block while the wings of the guitar were hollow), the 325 had one one f-hole and has a small plastic pickguard control plate which houses the volume and tone control knobs. The ES-325 featured two mini-humbucking pickups with non-adjustable poles, similar to those used on the Gibson Firebird.

The guitar was available in walnut and cherry finishes. Tailpieces used were usually trapeze or stop-tail tailpieces. Due to its lack of popularity compared to the other Gibson thinline guitars (such as the ES-335, ES-345, and ES-355), the ES-325 was discontinued by Gibson in the early 1970s.
