Notes:
This 1961 Gibson ES-175 Hollow Body Electric Guitar is in Very Good condition, part of a climate-controlled, family collection, with visible wear (pictured) consistent with 63 year age and appropriate live, home, and recording use. Pickups are '80s or '90s Gibson PAF Reissues, and more than deliver exactly the warm, articulate vintage PAF tone we're looking for in an ES-175 D of this era. Schaller bridge and "speed" knobs professionally installed, likely decades ago. Does not include original bridge or knobs. Does not include pickguard. Includes non-original, era-correct fitted case.
