Description

Description

Gibson themselves summed it up perfectly back in the ’60s: “The Gibson guitar that was inspired by Trini Lopez is as exciting as the young performer who helped create it.” And they weren’t wrong. Trini Lopez sadly passed in August 2020, but he kept rocking his signature model well into his 80s — proof of just how special this design really is. And he’s not the only fan! Everyone from Dave Grohl to Noel Gallagher has relied on a Trini Lopez to bring some extra swagger to the stage.

Key Features

3-ply Maple/Poplar/Maple semi-hollow body: A beautifully resonant build that delivers that classic airy chime and punchy midrange — it’s the recipe behind so many legendary tones. This thing sings even before you plug it in!
Authentic medium jumbo frets: Smooth, comfortable and absolutely perfect for expressive bends and silky‑easy playability.
Three Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups: Vintage PAF mojo — warm, articulate and wonderfully dynamic. Go from sweet, glassy cleans to snarling, edge‑of‑breakup grit.
ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge: Enjoy rock-solid tuning stability and spot-on intonation, so your riffs and chords always sound their best.
Single Diamond Trapeze tailpiece (with Trini Lopez Insert): A proper vintage showstopper. This instantly recognisable tailpiece doesn’t just look the business — it adds a touch of openness and sparkle to the guitar’s natural tone.
Included hardshell case: Keep your investment safe and sound with a premium case that’s built to protect your guitar on the road or at home.

About the manufacturer

Gibson

Gibson has long stood as a symbol of American craftsmanship and musical heritage, shaping the sound of rock, blues, and jazz for over a century. Founded in Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1902, Gibson became legendary with instruments like the Les Paul, SG, and ES series, each known for their rich sustain, premium tonewoods, and iconic designs. The brand’s pioneering use of humbucker pickups and carved maple tops created the warm, powerful sound that defines countless classic recordings. Played by greats such as Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Angus Young, Gibson guitars continue to represent timeless quality, innovation, and a deep connection between player and instrument.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Semi-Hollow Electric Guitars

Semi-hollow electric guitars combine elements of solid and hollow body designs, offering warmth and resonance alongside improved sustain and feedback control. Typically built with a centre block running through the body, they deliver an open, airy character while remaining stable at higher volumes. This balance makes them well suited to a wide range of styles, from jazz and blues to indie, rock, and alternative music. Semi-hollow guitars respond well to dynamics and touch, providing a versatile, expressive option for players who want depth without sacrificing control.
