Gibson / ES-175 SB / 1963 / Guitar

 Gibson ES-175 1963

 
For those who like their guitars nice and simple, this ES-175 is for you.  Loaded with two PAF humbuckers, it is very clean, with no checking or dings on the body and only a slight scrape on the top from changing the position of the wooden bridge.  The hardware is similarly clean, including the tuners and original frets. It plays smoothly on its wide, medium-thick neck.  As a quietly lovely guitar whose one pickup gives it a very well-defined sound, this ES-175 is nonetheless a classic.
 
Body:  Hollowbody, laminated maple top with maple back and sides. Sunburst finish. Sharp Florentine cutaway.
 
Neck:  Mahogany with bound rosewood fretboard.  Split parallelogram inlays. 
Medium-thick profile that's typical of pre-1964 models.
 
Pickups/Hardware:  Two PAF humbuckers.  Nickel hardware.  Beveled three-ply pickguard.  
 
Setup/Playability:  Plays smoothly on original frets.  A bit more mass to the neck gives it a more powerful feel.  
 
Cosmetic Condition:  Very clean top, only one scrape caused by a moving bridge.  No checking or other wear.  Clean hardware. 
 
Modifications: None
