The 1976 Gibson ES-175 is a key model from the "Norlin Era," characterized by distinct structural updates that diverged from earlier 1950s and 1960s builds. Most notably, 1976 marked the transition where Gibson replaced the traditional one-piece mahogany neck with a more rigid three-piece maple neck featuring a headstock volute
