1959 GIBSON ES-345TD

A 1959 Gibson ES-345TD, the first year of production, completely original except for a pro refret! This is one of the first 345 models ever made by Gibson. It features the highly sought-after 0.15″ thin top, long pickguard, and black Varitone. The neck has a perfect 1959 shape and plays beautifully. The overall condition is exceptionally clean and the sunburst remains intense. If the 58/59 335 guitars are “Burst-Killers,” this ES-345 is right there with them. And the 1959 ES-335 models in very good condition already cost almost twice as much as this one… Comes with its original brown case and a stereo cable!
