1968 Gibson ES-175D (USA, Sunburst, HSC)

From the listing

Seller's description

The usual stuff: maple body, mahogany neck, and rosewood fretboard with split parallelogram inlays. Trapeze tailpiece, and an ABR-1 bridge on a rosewood base. Dimensions for this period, at the tail end of the post-57/pre-70s version, are a 16 ¼-inch wide body, a 24 ¾-inch scale length, and a 1-9/16-inch nut width. The cool stuff: Patent sticker pickups, but with new pickup lead spliced in. Not a hatchet job, but worth mentioning for full disclosure. Very tidy, only wearing minor bumps and scrapes from its past lives. Nicely done parallelograms which still have the sparkle, handsome figure in the old rosewood board and frets in great shape. Plastics all in good condition (particularly the switch surrounds which are prone to perishing). Overall a very satisfying guitar for not a million bucks, and firmly in the category of affordable for the working musician. Got a gig at Bird's Basement coming up? Take this with you. Serial #958056 Weight: 3.00kgs. Comes with period hardcase in fair condition. '68 wasn't yesterday after all.
