Gibson / ES-225 TDC / 1959 / Sunburst / Guitar
|
Here is a bit of a bargain, basically this is a relatively rare 100% original 1959 2 pickup Gibson ES for £3,250!
The ES-225 is the predecessor of the ES-330 and in 1959 (probably mid to late 59) they discontinued this model and introduced the ES-330. All the ES-225's I have seen made in 1959 have the classic medium chunky 59 neck profile and this one is no exception.
It is 100% original in every way but depending on your personal viewpoint you may decide it needs a new pickguard...
Original pots, harness, pickups, knobs hardware etc and is set up as a very playable guitar with a good action, there is a little rutting on the cowboy positions of the fretboard but nothing serious. Original frets are in good condition and very playable.
2x seriously good sounding 1959 original P-90's are fitted which makes the guitar very versatile for a variety of playing styles. Case is a non original, old hard type.
