2000 Gibson USA Limited Edition ES-335 BP Translucent Red, Black Binding, Ebony Board w/OHSC, RARE

2000 Gibson USA Limited Edition ES-335 BP Translucent Red, Black Binding, Ebony Board w/OHSC, RARE

On offer an exceptionally rare and remarkably clean 2000 Gibson USA Limited Edition ES-335BP in a striking, deep Translucent Red nitrocellulose finish. This unique model stands out with its non-traditional black binding and sleek ebony fingerboard, offering a bold twist on a classic design.

Included with this stunning guitar is its original Gibson-branded TKL brown fitted hard case, which is also in excellent condition, with the lock still unset.

A discontinued iteration of the ES-335, our model features classic specs such as a maple semi-hollow body construction with a maple centre block and spruce bracing, paired with a one-piece slender ‘60s-style C-shaped profile mahogany neck and a pair of ’57 Classic PAF humbuckers.

Given its age, this guitar is in excellent condition, showcasing an exceptionally clean exterior with only a few light surface marks, most of which are clearly visible in the provided photos. The neck and frets offer smooth, effortless playability, with all 22 frets showing minimal to no wear. The only notable detail is a subtle, smoothed wear patch on the back of the neck around the 11th fret. The original nickel hardware has developed a tasteful patina, enhancing the guitar's beautiful vintage character.

All electronics function flawlessly as intended. The guitar remains completely stock aside from one professionally replaced CTS volume pot, ensuring seamless performance. The original pot is also included with the guitar.

This one weighs in at 8.37lbs.

It’s been expertly cleaned and setup by Ben of Beej Guitar Repairs with a fresh set of 10-46 strings
