The Gibson ES-175 should easily land a spot on the "top-five" list of any Jazz players list of quintessential guitars. First introduced to the world in 1949 with a single P-90 configuration, the guitar continuously progressed over the years until it finally hit a high-point both in tone and looks, when in 1959 the guitar featured humbucking pickups along with the looks of the "zig-zag" tailpiece.
