For sale is a 2017 Gibson Custom Shop Shinichi Ubukata ES-355 #068 of 150 in Vintage Ebony VOS, complete with its original hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity.

This rare and meticulously crafted signature model honors Shinichi Ubukata (ELLEGARDEN / Nothing's Carved In Stone) and is based on the classic ES-355 that defined much of his tone and style. Built in a limited run of only 150 guitars, this ES-355 blends iconic vintage aesthetics with artist-specific features, including a '59 rounded neck profile, dark rosewood fretboard, mono Varitone switch, skull logo at the back of the headstock, nickel hardware, and Diamond F binding.

The guitar is in very good condition, showing only light scratches, a few small dings, some finish wear on the back from a guitar stand, and minor tarnish on the hardware. It has no cracks, no repairs, and no structural issues. The neck is straight, and the original frets show minimal wear. The instrument has just been professionally set up and plays flawlessly with no buzzing or dead spots.

This ES-355 is completely original and comes with its original hard-shell case in very good condition. Detailed photos of the guitar’s wear are included, so you can see exactly what you’re getting—no stock photos are used.

If you're looking for a collectible, artist-inspired semi-hollow Gibson with top-tier tone and craftsmanship, this limited-edition Shinichi Ubukata model delivers on all fronts.
