Description

This 1955 Gibson ES-175 is a classic hollowbody electric featuring replacement Seymour Duncan Custom Shop Humbucker in a P90 pickup, a carved Brazilian rosewood bridge, and a trapeze tailpiece. With its warm, articulate tone and smooth playability, it's a favorite among jazz and blues players. This vintage example shows light wear consistent with age. It has undergone several thoughtful updates that can be seen in full detail under the Specs tab. Includes a non-original 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.
