Description

This 1957 Gibson ES-125 is a classic archtop, delivering warm, punchy tones with vintage charm. Featuring a fully hollow laminate maple body and a comfortable mahogany neck, it offers rich resonance and smooth playability. The single P-90 pickup provides a dynamic, articulate voice with plenty of warmth and bite—perfect for blues, jazz, and rockabilly. With its sunburst finish, classic archtop design, and beautifully aged patina, this ES-125 is a fantastic example of Gibson’s mid-century craftsmanship.

Includes original alligator chipboard case.
