Seller's description

For Sale: 2012 Gibson Custom Shop ES-355 – Ebony Black VOS Bigsby w/ OHSC & COA Up for sale is a 2012 Gibson Custom Shop ES-355 in Ebony Black VOS, complete with its original hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity. This is a very classy and well-appointed Gibson Custom Shop semi-hollow, built with all the upscale features that make the ES-355 such a special model. It combines the warmth, air, and versatility of the ES platform with premium appointments including block inlays, gold hardware, a Bigsby B-7, and a vintage-inspired VOS Ebony Black finish. Gibson’s Memphis-built ES models from this period are especially well regarded, and this one is a great example with excellent looks, feel, and tone. Condition This guitar is in excellent condition and I would rate it a solid 9/10. It shows only light scratches and some tarnish to the gold hardware, but nothing major. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition. There are no cracks, breaks, or repairs. The neck is straight, the frets are in excellent shape, and the guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with no buzzing or dead spots. It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go. The original hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity are both included.
