Gibson ES-175D Sunburst 1955 w/OHSC (Refret)
Regular price
$6,999.99
Vintage Gibson ES-175D in Sunburst finish made in 1955 with Original Hard Shell Case. This guitar features a double bound hollow maple back&sides body with a maple top, mahogany neck and bound brazilian rosewood fingerboard. Equipped with its original Gibson dog ear P-90 single coils in the neck position and bridge position. Controlled by 2 volume, 2 tone pots and a 3-Way toggle switch comprised of its original Centralab pots dating to the 23rd week of 1953. The 24.75" scale length neck has pearloid split parallelogram inlays and tortoise side markers with 20 vintage frets on a 12" radius with a medium C profile. The hardware is comprised of nickel Kluson deluxe "pat applied" no line single ring tuning machines with keystone heads, a nylon nut, a Gibson ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge with rosewood base and trapeze tailpiece and gold speed knobs with a 5-Ply black pickguard.
This guitar is in overall very good condition with its age with visible signs of age and some play. It has finish check throughout the instrument, some surface marks/ light scratches and some dings/ small dents. We believe this guitar has had a refret at some point in it's life many years ago.

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 10-46 strings. Includes Original Hard Shell Case and Vintage Case Candy (Non original).
