GIBSON ES 175 DN, 1968

natural. A beautiful jazz guitar from Gibson's classic years,  oval orange label, no "Made in USA", no "volute". Natural finish is in fine conditions, and has turned to a beautiful amber color through the years,  light checking. Patent-Number humbucking pickups, 'sombrero' knobs. A few belt-buckle marks on the back, with three areas showing a little more wear, but the instrument is in overall excellent condition. Rosewood bridge and fretboard, very fine playability, classic mahogany neck which gives that lightness and mellow sound that maple-neck guitars from the '70s are missing. The guitar is 100 % original, with original hardshell case as well, and sounds fantastic. A classic in its most sought-after version.
