Description
Similar to the ES-175 in many ways, the full-size hollow-body ES-295
sports two P90 pickups and, most noticeably, that gold finish and leaf
motif on the pickguard! Often seen being played by Scotty Moore in Elvis'
band, the ES-295 has loads of mid-century vintage charm. This one comes
with the original P90s and has had only modest repairs and touch-ups to
keep it in working order. The tuners and knobs were replaced, and there
is evidence of finish touch-up near the output jack, on the back of the
neck, headstock and heel. It's had a re-fret for great playability and a repaired top separation on the waist also
had a little color touch-up, and the whole body has had a full clear
overspray. Ships out in an Yamaha hardshell case.
