About This Listing

This was a case queen previously owned by a Navy officer. I bought it a few years ago and you can hear it in this video here:Action, intonation, frets etc are in good working order with slight indents on the first few frets. The pots are smooth with no crackles or gunge and features original Centralab Pots which in this condition are worth a lot of money. The nitro finish still mostly shines with very slight patina in some areas, and cloudy areas in others. There are minor chips and scratches, mostly on the headstock so view images for a close inspection. It is stock and I do have the original pick guard and mounting bracket/screws in storage. Bid with confidence. Look at other models of this age and you won't come across one for sale in better condition. Gibson ES-125 Electric Guitar Centralab Pots, Bumblebee Sprague caps, P90.
