The Gibson ES-135 is popular for its mellow sound and playability.
It features a traditional "Florentine cutaway" thin body equipped with two P-100 pickups.
This hybrid design combines the classic look of the full-hollow ES-175 with a slightly thicker thin body reminiscent of the semi-hollow ES-335. The body is made of laminated maple, paired with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard.
Despite its relatively thin body, the semi-hollow construction with a center block delivers a solid sound and excellent resistance to feedback, making it a standout among hollow-body guitars.
This particular instrument has a Bigsby tremolo system retrofitted.

The third string peg is bent; there is a scratch on the tip of the headstock accompanied by paint peeling; there is a dent on the back of the neck at the 6th fret (covered with marker); there is paint peeling on the back of the body (covered with marker); and there are overall scratches, peeling, and small dents.
The hardware shows signs of tarnish and rust, and the control knobs have internal cracks.
Overall, it shows moderate signs of wear.
