About this listing
1st year Reissue 1990 Gibson ES-295 Reissue in Bullion Gold - absolutely Mint Condition!I purchased this guitar Brand New only for a collector guitar. I have never played this out. The guitar probably has less than 10 total hours played on it at all. It was either give Uncle Sam Tax money, or purchase gear - so I purchased gear like this. Ive now had it for 36 years and its time to go... It has been in the case all this time, in my house. The only wear on the guitar at all is some finish checking that has occurred around the neck joint and sporadically on the back of the guitar. It is beautiful.
