This 1957 Gibson ES-125 is a classic example of Gibson’s mid-century hollowbody craftsmanship. Featuring a full-depth archtop body with a sunburst finish, it sports a single dog-ear P-90 pickup that delivers warm, punchy tones perfect for blues, jazz, and rockabilly. The mahogany neck with a Brazilian rosewood fingerboard offers a comfortable, rounded profile typical of the era. With its vintage vibe and unmistakable tone, this ES-125 is a soulful, no-frills player’s guitar with timeless appeal. Check out the specs tab for the full repair history. Includes a 70s Gibson hardshell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
