Here is a beautiful vintage 1991 natural figured Gibson ES-335 Dot. It was built in Gibson’s USA Nashville factory back in 1991. However is was a Yamano export that we picked it up in Japan recently. It is complete with its Japanese Yamano export booklet. There some really stunning looking maple flame and grain visible on the top, sides and back of this beautiful 335. You can see why this ended up in Japan. Due to the age you can feel the resonant old growth wood as soon as you pick this up, it is super resonant. Neck is dead straight truss rod checked and functioning fine, plenty of life left in the frets, which still have their nibs. The original ’57 Classic humbuckers sound fantastic. Factory fitted grovers have taken on a nice patina and are working fine. It is ageing beautifully, the binding has yellowed and a lovely uniform patina is showing over all the metal hardware. There is some nitrocellulose checking beginning to creep in too, all natural - it's never had a razorblade near it. There have obviously been no breaks or repairs. There are a few little bumps and scuffs as you'd expect from the age of this guitar. There is little shallow smooth paint nick in the neck (pic 12) which does not hinder play at all. Plays and sounds great with a comfortable ’60 profile neck. Nicely balanced & weighs in at 4.1kg.   It is complete with its original tan, pink-lined Gibson HSC still with shroud. Case is functioning fine, latches dulled over the years and combi lock working fine. A real old early 90’s beauty.
