Description Exact Year: 1952 Brand: Gibson Series: Vintage Model: ES-295
This is a beautiful 65 year-old piece. The tailpiece dates it to 1952 and the serial number to early 53. It is in remarkable condition for its age and comes with the original Caligirl case. The hardware, electronics, and knobs, etc are all original except for the pickguard/mounting bracket. I am the third owner of this guitar and know a bit about its history. The original owner lived in the Midwest. In the early 70s, about 45 years ago, the finish has started to check and discolor. He had it professionally refinished at that time. Since that time it has been babied and not played much. Hence, despite its age, the refinish shines like new. The hardware is in good shape but the aged metal could use polishing. I will pack this professionally and insure it for its value. Direct pickup is possible in central and southern California. Feel free to contact Theron at 209 704 5813 if you have specific questions. I am not looking for a trade. I am simply thinning my collection. Best--tw
