The Story

Used Custom Shop 1959 ES-175 VOS Electric Guitar Vintage Burst

Here is a pre-owned guitar, a classic if there ever was, a recreation of the '59 ES-175 inside and out. The guitar has a VOS finish to give it a slightly aged patina, with aged split parallelogram inlays to match. With the '57 Classic humbuckers it can even pump out some Rock and Roll when pushed into a light overdrive. This is a fantastic instrument that will be be a welcome addition to any Jazzbox aficionados collection and it's still in excellent condition!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tag
