Vintage Gibson ES-355 TD / SU
1969 model electric guitar!
Incredible Tone! Plays great! Nice Shape!
This used / vintage Gibson ES-355 is just in on consignment and is in nice shape! It sounds incredible- full and rich with that airy, woody quality that only the finest, vintage semi-hollow Gibsons possess. This particular guitar has been well cared for during it’s lifetime in the collection of a local guitar shop owner. it displays the fine patina of a classic vintage instrument pushing 50 years old, but is in good condition overall. Some dings, dents, checking, wear, etc… The pickgaurd has long since vaporized like many of the old Tortoise guards did, and I believe that is what left the darker mark in the finish that is noticeable where the pickgaurd would normally be. It also likely contributed to the oxidation of some of the hardware. This ES-355 TD / SU is the Stereo model with Varitone electronics and Gibson tremolo unit. A pair of great sounding, Patent Sticker pickups w/original intact covers sound fantastic and paired with the Varitone a number of excellent sounding tonal variations are possible.
The nut width is 1&9/16″ – the same as my personal 1966 ES-355. Like all our used / vintage gear this item has been tested for functionality and priced to move. Sold as-is. What you see is what you get. Non-original hardshell case is included.
