Gibson celebrates 40 years of Back to the Future with limited edition guitars and apparel

Gibson has teamed up with Universal to celebrate 40 years of Back to the Future with a collection of limited edition guitars and apparel.

The Back to the Future 1955 ES-345 Collector’s Edition from Gibson Custom is limited to just 88 guitars worldwide – a nod to the time machine from the film – and features a Cherry Red finish with exclusive design details.

Elsewhere, the Epiphone Back to the Future ES-345, limited to 1,985 guitars globally, celebrates the year the film hit theaters.

“Bringing this guitar to life has been a passion project for many years, and it’s incredibly exciting to finally see it become a reality,” said Mark Agnesi, Director of Brand Experience at Gibson.

“We couldn’t be prouder of how these guitars turned out – they’re truly special. This is the guitar that inspired me, and countless others from my generation, to pick up playing in the first place.”

In addition to the guitars, there’s also an exclusive range of Back to the Future apparel and accessories, including tees, hats, collectible guitar pick tins, a guitar strap, and an Axe Heaven mini guitar.
