Description
A fabulous hollow body delivers all the tone & texture we've come to love about the ES-175. This beauty features a mahogany back & sides with maple top in sunburst finish. The double humbuckers offer warm, rich tones & the silky smooth mahogany neck plays magically up & down the fretboard. Professionally inspected & set up by the experts here at Cream City Music.
Cosmetic Condition: Used, but not abused, with typical mild play wear - various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings, scratches & weather checking. The back of headstock was stamped a Factory Second, but there are no structural or electronic issues whatsoever. All in all, a great looking guitar with a cool vibe & gorgeous patina.
Neck: Slender profile mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & black side-dots. Rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl double parallelogram inlays. Original frets are in great shape with hardly any wear. Gibson tuners in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Double-bound, hollow body with Florentine cutaway. Maple top in sunburst finish with dual F-holes. Mahogany back & sides. Trapeze tailpiece & Tune-O-Matic bridge on a rosewood base. 5-ply black pickguard with nickel & chrome hardware. Guitar weighs 7 lbs 0.8 oz.
Electronics: Dual Gibson humbuckers with black bezels. Both pickups are fairly evenly matched at about 7.53K ohms. Dual volume & tone controls with black "witch hat" knobs; 3-way toggle switch. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Original hardshell case included.
