We have a very special 1968 Gibson ES-175D in fabulous condition and in perfect working order. This 56 year old ES-175D features a 100% original Sunburst Nitro Lacquer finish on both its neck & body & a 1 piece mahogany neck w/a late 60s neck carve, she’s sporting a pair of T Top Pat. # stickered Humbucking pickups that sound like Pat Metheny. The fully hollow 16″ wide maple body yields tremendous tonal complexity, characteristic of the note attack and clarity of maple, but also the smoothness and warmth attributable to the hollowbody construction. Its oval orange is missing. The sound is bold and balanced acoustically, and the HB’s yield plenty of glassy, percussive cut and sweet midrange bark. It’s got no touch-up or overspray. Its original pickgard is perfect & it retains its Zig-Zag Tailpiece ! Other than the replacement tuners, she’s exceptionally clean & comes in a nice newer hard case.
