Gibson / ES-335 / 1965 / Sunburst / Guitar
Big neck '65 ES-335. Beautiful sunburst mid 65 with mixed chrome and nickel parts. Nickel bridge and pick guard bracket. Chrome covers and tailpiece. Sealed patent number pickups. Nice wavy Brazilian board. Original everything except for the nut on the pick guard bracket which is missing. Great neck (same as a 64) and excellent tone. Neck measures 1.67" at the nut which is 1 11/16" or so. Finish is excellent with some checking and some very light wear (smooth) on the back of the neck frets 2-5. No dings or scratches of any note just a scuff on the back near the strap button which looks like it will buff out if you're so inclined. No fingerboard wear and only minor wear to the original frets (still has flat wounds on it). These are a relatively economical alternative to the 64's that everybody wants. Yes, it's a trapeze tailpiece but it'll save to $5000-$8000 over a 64 ES-335. It is a factory "2" which means it has some little finish flaw somewhere. Near perfect Gibson badged case.
