Description

Though the three pickup ES-5 first debuted in 1949, it wasn't until 1955 that the Switchmaster version with six control knobs and a four-way selector switch hit the market. Though Gibson discontinued the model in 1962, they brought it back in 1995, the year this Master Model ES-5 was made! This 17" maple electric-archtop offers tonal options a plenty, and is in excellent pre-owned condition with all the original electronics and components. Ships in its original Gibson hard case.
