Description
What makes this guitar special: Not your typical ES-355, this one has a rosewood fingerboard with split block inlays & a master volume in lieu of a Veritone switch. Perhaps a custom order? Regardless, it's an incredibly smooth player with dynamic tone & a gorgeous vintage vibe. The maple body shows off some absolutely stunning flame figuring - so much so it's nearly impossible to take your eyes off the guitar. Loaded with a pair Seymour Duncan "zebra" humuckers, combined with a silky smooth neck for the ultimate playing experience. Complete with a pro set up from the experts at Cream City Music, so she's ready for action straight out of the case!
Cosmetic Condition: Used, but not abused, with moderate play wear - various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches & mild finish wear. The gold hardware has tarnished somewhat, but overall the guitar has a great look with a beautiful patina.
Neck: Slender profile mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & abalone side-dots. Rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl split block inlays. Appears to have been refretted & frets are in great shape with just a tiny bit of wear & plenty of life in them. Bound headstock with mother of pearl split diamond inlays & truss rod cover. Grover tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
