1968 Gibson ES-335 TD -  Sunburst incl. orig. Gibson hardshell case

1968 ES-335 TD with Bigsby in very good condition and all original. We are happy to offer another outstanding late 60s ES-335 - there is a good reason why the 66-69 model years increase in value at the moment: They have that certain woody tone, sweetness and response that you associate with the Golden Era of Gibson guitars. This one is no exception: You will notice it's a very special guitar right after you pick it up and start to play. It's been played in it's lifetime and has some dings and dongs and some typical weather checking but it's been treated well by it's former owner(s). The neck is full and round and the two "Pat.Nr.-Decal" pickups never had their covers off, all solder joints are original and untouched. The pots have 1967 date codes (we assume it's either a 67 or an early 68 model), the two humbuckers have balanced outputs of N=7,9023K and B=7,37K. This is your chance to own a guitar with the tone that made Gibson famous - for a Custom Shop price. The guitar comes in its original black Gibson hardshell-case w/yellow lining.
