*This is a used guitar in excellent condition. *This is a consignment item. *Includes OHSC, COA and original hang tags.
*Observations: This is a beautiful, great-sounding example of a very rare Gibson Custom Shop. Limited to only 55 built, this Artist Series is like no other. Big in sound, looks, and personality, yet comfortably small in scale. Boasting the infamous "Birdland Scale", this is one killer early Rock-and-Roll machine.
The overall condition of this guitar is absolutely excellent. There is some minor pick scratching on the pickguard only. None on the body. All the gold hardware is in like new condition. Aside from one small dimple on the top side lower bout, this guitar shows no real signs of wear or play at all. This includes the OHSC and all the case candy. Including a replica strap and a replica of the Zuni "Sun God" bolo tie worn by Chuck throughout his career.

The Guitar That Started It All
Chuck Berry's performances on American Bandstand in the 1950s changed the world. Dancing and duck-walking across the stage with his lucky bolo tie swinging, Chuck strummed his gorgeous Gibson ES-350T and belted out "Maybellene," "Johnny B. Goode" and a variety of other hits that influenced nearly every major music act to follow. Chuck and his Gibson guitar became the indelible look of Rock n' Roll.
Gibson presents this first-ever Chuck Berry signature model, a replica of his 1955 ES-350T, to honor the legendary career of one of music's greatest innovators. It features historically-correct construction and appointments, hand-picked figured maple, a pair of fiery P-90 pickups, a replica strap and a replica of the Zuni "Sun God" bolo tie that Chuck wore throughout the 1950s. Limited to only 55 instruments sold worldwide.
