The Story

1970 ES-175 Sunburst

Gibson hollowbody and Jazz box enthusiasts, take a look at this very nice ES-175 built in 1970. The guitar features all of the classic ES-175 appointments such as the laminate single-cutaway body style, split parallelogram fretboard inlays and trapeze tailpiece. The guitar is in overall very good condition with light players wear around the body - no cracks or any major dings on it! A strap pin was added to the neck heel and Grover tuners are installed, with screw holes from the original tuner set visible. The original hardshell case is included with this ES-175.
