All original, mint '53 Gibson ES-295. From my personal collection. Incredible tone, sustain and feel. Chunky, but incredible smooth and playable. One of the few 295's on the market that had the gold in tact on the back. Almost every one you'll find today is either heavy fade/buckle rash or not in tact. Rare to find one with such clean and beautiful checking but the gold in tact. The neck plays phenomenally with the gold fading into that green petina in all the right places. One of the most legendary Gibson's ever made. Such a great guitar.
