“Celebrating the most treasured guitar scene in movie history”: Gibson has launched Custom and Epiphone replicas of the Back to the Future ES-345 – but its search for the long-lost original guitar goes on

With its hunt for the long-lost Back to the Future electric guitar still ongoing, Gibson has celebrated its connection to the Hollywood hit and made good on earlier teases by releasing not one, but two, replicas of the ES-345 that starred in the film.

2025 marks the 40th anniversary of the first Back to the Future film, which, thanks to its iconic ‘Enchantment Under the Sea’ school dance scene, is firmly cemented in guitar lore.
