🎶 For Sale: 1971 Gibson ES-355 TDSV – Rare Natural Finish 🎶

Up for sale is this stunning 1971 Gibson ES-355 TDSV, a true collector’s piece with a rare and highly sought-after natural finish. This guitar was special-ordered in late 1970 and delivered in March 1971, one of only two (possibly three) ever made in this finish during that model year. It is a remarkable find for Gibson enthusiasts and serious collectors.

🎶 Key Features:

  • Finish: Natural (not available in the catalog)
  • Condition: Cosmetically very presentable and in outstanding condition for its age
  • Originality: Nearly all original, except for genuine Gibson replacement bridge saddles and Kluson waffleback tuners
  • Frets: Original frets in excellent shape
  • Pickups: Both original patent number sticker pickups, removed at some point and later reinstalled
  • Setup: Recently professionally set up and restrung with 10s

🎶 This rare ES-355 TDSV comes with its original purple-lined hard case, adding to its collector value. It has been well-maintained and is a dream to play. Carl Wilson of the Beach Boys purchased one of these rare models in 1971, making it even more iconic.

🎶 Don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of Gibson history!
