“I guess I’m buying a new Gibson”: Cesar Gueikian teases Custom Shop replica of Marty McFly’s “1955” ES-345 – but hunt goes on for original Back To The Future guitar

Marty McFly (Michael J Fox) takes to the air with the Gibson ES-345 that has been missing since Back To The Future wrapped in 1985. On the right, a teaser of a forthcoming Gibson replica of the guitar.

Here is news of a Hollywood remake that we can all get behind. Gibson CEO Cesar Gueikian has teased the release of a Custom Shop replica of the ES-345 that Michael J Fox’s Marty McFly played in Back To The Future – and Gueikian has also hinted at an Epiphone version.

McFly/Fox’s ES-345 is the electric guitar that everyone in the world is looking for. It has been missing ever since the Robert Zemeckis sci-fi wrapped in 1985, and, in June, Gibson launched its Lost To The Future campaign to find it then return it into Fox’s hands.
