1959 Gibson ES-175 (USA, PAF Pickups, Sunburst, HSC)
Our users rate Reverb
Lovely '59 Electrical Spanish model one hundred seventy five. Frankly an unreal guitar that I, the writer, can scarcely believe exists. Wonderful. Absolutely worth selling a moderately priced car for.
Supply your own radio voice for the following:
"First produced in 1949 - A revolutionary new take on the challenge of electrifying what was otherwise an acoustic archtop guitar. A benchmark for jazz tone and performance that remains the standard to this day! For most players, though, the ES-175 fully reached its potential a decade later in 1959, when the P.A.F humbucking pickups that had replaced its original P-90s in 1957 were joined by a new rounded, ultra-comfortable neck profile."
... so what you're looking at here is a super clean example of a P.A.F loaded ES-175, with the first year of the iconic neck profile. This well-maintained instrument has seen a pro refret. Machine heads and control knobs are reproductions, pots original. Includes a later (1960s) Gibson case. Gorgeous thing.
