The ES-175 is an incredibly versatile hollow bodied guitar from Gibson. The cutaway offers access to higher frets, a trapeze tailpiece gives beautiful overtones and feel to the instrument and the humbucker gives that classic Gibson sound. This guitar is in wonderful condition with only a few repairs. It comes from a transitional time with Gibson where they balanced between specs and part changes. This is a 1965 but is spec'd more like a '64 with the nickel pickup cover on the transitional pickup among other details. It sounds incredible and plays with smooth, easy action. Repairs include a refret, three replaced tuners, some binding repair, a neck reset and overspray on the neck. A combination of vibe and preservation leave this guitar in excellent condition for the next owner to enjoy.

Comes with a black molded hardshell case
