Description

It doesn’t get much cleaner or cooler than this 1962 Gibson ES-355 in Cherry! Featuring a stunning selection of Maple, this guitar is an incredible example of Gibson’s top-of-the-line ES thinline guitar. This one sports a factory Bigsby and factory grovers, which still remain in great condition with only some wear to the gold plating. This is a stereo guitar, equipped with two humbucking pickups, a Vari-Tone switch, and Gibson’s standard knob setup. Due to the transitional period in which this guitar was built, it received one patent number and one PAF pickup. Aside from the strap buttons and bridge, this guitar remains original, including its original case and case cover.
