This is a great feeling and sounding example of a ES-120T. It features a wide 1 11/16" nut with a full rounded neck profile. The single coil pickup sounds fantastic and has a transparent acoustic quality that stands apart from the larger and more mid range forward p-90. The previous owner who we acquired it from, had this guitar for over 30 years and carefully maintained it during this time. No breaks or repairs- the mark on the back of the headstock is a scratch in the finish and not a crack. The neck is straight and the frets show only light wear. It plays perfectly up the neck with low action and room for further adjustment at the saddle. The bridge was upgraded to a fancier ebony bridge with arrow inlays on the base and the tuners were replaced with later Gibson Keystone Deluxes. It comes in a nice TKL hardshell case. Overall this is a excellent entry point into the world of vintage Gibson hollowbodies at an affordable price.
