Here is the Absolute Finest Conditioned (Original) 1960's Kent 335 Style Guitar Series 800 Guitar I have owned in my 58 years of dealing with Vintage guitars. I call it MINT Condition because for an almost 60 year old guitar, I could only find a couple tiny scratches on the back in the clearcoat but not through to the wood! Made in Japan. You can find a fair amount of history for Kent guitars on the internet. This one truly looks like a 1960's Gibson 335. More important, it plays and sounds very much like one since I actually owned an es335 during the early 60's. This Kent has the Rosewood Neck with Block Inlaid and is perfectly straight with nice comfortable low action. Two Humbucker pickups (black cased), Speed Bridge (adjustable) with Bigsby like tailpiece. Body and sound holes are completely bound. There are 2 volume and 2 tone control knobs with a pickup selector switch. "Made in Japan" is stamped into the metal neck plate. What I love is the thin neck (Not bulky)! All in All a TRUE time capsule and Collector Grade Vintage guitar! Comes with its original chip board case which has seen better days missing the bottom latch but at least will protect the guitar during shipping! Speaking of shipping, I will securely package and use a sturdy guitar shipping box with Reverbs shipping label for full coverage insurance by way of UPS Ground. Why pay thousands for a 1960's es335 when you can own a clone for a fraction of the costs! Feel free to ask any questions and I will do my best to get back as quickly as possible!
